Caucasians do not have a strong ethnic bondage similar to blacks or Hispanics.

But why not? How are French, German, Greeks, Irish any less connected than Puerto Ricans, Spaniards, Guatemalans, Colombians, Argentinians? I can see how blacks might have a certain bond because most are descended from slaves but not the others.

The way I see it, there is a difference between a German-American club/Irish-American club and a Caucasian-American club.

I've been to Oktober Fest but I've never been to Caucasian Fest.

I go to St Patrick's Day celebrations but I've never been to St Caucasian Patron's parties.

Hispanics are made up of all races, therefore only a strong bond dealing with language, religion, and music can sustain an ethnic club for Hispanics; the same can be said about German-Americans and Greek-Americans, for instance.

Every year I go to the local Greek-American festival about the local Greek Orthodox Church, and I know what to expect.

I wonder what a Caucasian-American festival at a local Caucasian-American church will look like.
