[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I dislike the term "white" as it is not very descriptive. White people have Euro ancestry. Do you like the term "white" or would you prefer another term to refer to your skin color or ancestral background? White Americans who live here now lived in Europe for thousands of years, and are thus indigenous to that continent. What would be a better term for them?[/quote] I'm fine with "white", thanks, but if you prefer "primarily European ancestry", I'm fine with that, too. For what it's worth, I have not lived in Europe for thousands of years (I did live there for one year, though); and you're also erasing a whole lot of migration of people through Asia and Europe. [/quote] NP. I agree with you, but there might be a point to be made here. To some extent, white Americans are not allowed the same pride of socio-identity/heritage as everyone else. So that leads to them acting out in unfortunate ways, politically and otherwise. [/quote]
