‘Remember how “African” was an anomaly until everyone found out that is a racial designation in Kenya. and it is exactly what someone from Kenya would consider themselves to be.’

Btw, that sounds like the kind of fairytale only an Obot would believe. So racial designations in the US are based on the idiosyncrasies of Kenya. And you actually tout this as evidence in favor of Obama. It falls under the rubric: the way the world would be if everyone thought like an Obot.

Smh.

According the DOH they use whatever designation the parent puts down.

“Kurt Tsue at the DOH told us that father’s race and mother’s race are supplied by the parents, and that “we accept what the parents self identify themselves to be.”

In 1958 Spanish was considered a race.

In 1961 Korean was considered a race.
