Is this about the Microsoft Zune??? They claimed the same thing... “Brown is the New White”...
Well, if you're ever arrested for a sex crime, you will be counted as white. I'm not even sure Latino is a race.
Wow, America of the near future will just be a carnival of indignation.
the man quoted in the article is not too bright.
“Hispanics were in the southwest...”
Spain was still in Europe at the time of the conquista of Mexico.

That is offensive. Color is not important. It’s more important that we invite and assume people who can give allegiance to our country and like our cultural ideals.
Let's examine this statement. "Hispanic" means "of Spanish descent." And Spain is part of Europe. So how did people of Spanish descent get to be "thriving in California and the Southwest centuries before Europeans set foot in America"? There is a little deficit in logic here. Now if the author means that Indian people were thriving here long before Europeans showed up, I can agree, but he doesn't identify himself as an Indian, only as Hispanic.
If all “Latinos” of any skin color are a “race”, are all English speaking people a race too? Are Jamiacans “Anglos”? If I had moved to Costa Rico and raised my kids speaking Spanish, would they have changed races and become Latinos? Would that be betraying their racial heritage? It’s very confusing.
It is. Now if they will take the logo off; I will buy as I look very good in brown.
well...that is the objective....very few hispanics..brown or otherwise even Cubans who don't line up strictly because they are other hispanics (the illegals)
I find that racist but unlike many here I've never found racism to be the biggest bogeyman under the bed and resist finger pointing and breast beating over it
I'm an unapologetic cracker...southern.
This lady is going to get CANCER...most persons who feel the "Man" has oppressed them do.
Racial discrimination tied to breast cancer risk

Hispanics weren't thriving. They made a mess of things in America
The Anglos built America. Not the Hispanics. The definition of Anglo has changed through the years but I define them as Northern Europeans, mostly Anglo-Celt and Protestant. Catholics and Jews came later
You could, just could, find this racist because it’s racist.
I’ll put it way - the defacto offical color of the KKK is white, of the Race, it’s brown.
“The slogan “Brown is the New White” implies that Hispanics should attempt to pass for white. The not to subtle message is that being white is the ideal, and non-whites should strive to be like the Caucasian majority.”
No it doesnt. What is this person smoking? It doesn’t even remotely imply that. If anything it implies that being brown is better than being white...
Both statements are Racist.
“”White is the New Brown.” just as racist as “White is the new Brown”.
No, it doesn't : It implies that "white" people are being replaced by "brown" people, IMO. It is racist only in the sense that it reflects the triumphalist attitudes common (and often posted here) among the La Raza/Atzlan/ MeCha crowd.
The statement is offensive because it divides by race and because it describes a situation that a majority of Americans oppose and that is being forced upon us by a government that refuses to enforce the borders. Now THAT is offensive...
Brown is the new white.................
They mean the brown noise, right?
