CUNY insists "some faculty" want the label, instead of being lumped in as just white. But the theistic tag has outraged both Jewish and non-Jewish professors, and sparked a furor. "This is, as far as I know, the first time a religion has been introduced into any affirmative-action document," said David Gordon, a history professor at Bronx Community College and the Graduate Center... "It's an insult and idiotic," said Hershey Friedman, deputy chairman of the Finance and Business Management Department at Brooklyn College. "Most Jews are brown-skinned. We also have black Jews and Asian Jews. Once you mix religion with race you're opening a Pandora's box -- and you look stupid.""Hershey Friedman" looks stupid, but that's his parents' fault. His racism makes him stupid.
Uh, when I wuz a kid, our Crayola boxes contained a "flesh" colored crayon, distinct from both White and Pink and Black.
We need to be much more nuanced wrt skin color. I suggest using a scan of the palm and reporting a Hex triad of the RGB result.
