Do you think the color blue would have similar connotations had Africans been various shades of it instead?

What if somebody’s 50% black, is that enough, or is she going to have a pigment meter at the door?

This is the age of "Be All You Want To Be" isn't it?

As long as you self-identify as someone who doesn't have white skin you should be good to go.

I wonder if the “I Ain’t Gonna Play Sun City” rock gang will now boycott Costa Rica to protest this mini-apartheid situation.

I want to that I’m not knocking actual successful blacks who have worked hard. They don’t get credit because so many other black people are fawned over for not striving and clawing, having a below average work performance and so on. Barack Obama’s who you mentioned comes to mind as the ultimate example. This is one of the reasons Clarence Thomas didn’t like Affirmative Action among others, that his excellence would go unnoticed and unrewarded because he wouldn’t stand out as he so justly deserved.

eastern Washington is pretty white...not many blacks...we've seen a good influx of Russians and Ukranians and throw in some Marshalese as well...we have quite a few Hispanic types, but mostly they're kind of white anyway...

I LOVE people from other countries....I hope they love America....I just want them here legally...

Would that the USA black “community” had paid attention to Dr. King’s content of character comment and taken it to heart!

Instead we get Reverend Leroy!
