[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My African students have made it clear that they don't agree with the blanket African American ethnicity box for all. Personally, I think MOST people in the US are too far removed from their roots to claim any sort of connection, and I wish we would eliminate these labels altogether. [/quote] Spoken like a white person who knows her roots. [/quote] Is this a slam? If so, I know my roots. My family came over from Italy in the late 40s. I grew up bilingual and learned how to cook from scratch. And what then do you think of my African students' opinion? Their opinion means nothing? If it wasn't a slam, then this WHITE PERSON finds it hard to detect tone on a forum. [/quote]
