racial categorization

Your claim was about Warren's position on the matter. I'm still waiting for you to support that. This is a continuation from here

The twist is that Planet X is post-apocalyptic Earth.

Since I inadvertently started a thread digression (Sorry!), can we move the discussion here? What I said, which pretty much one and all disagreed with, was that I wish she'd take a damn DNA test and announce the results one way or another. I like Warren rather a lot. My point was that if she...

We have a president who lies non-stop, yet Republicans totally disinterested in calling the President out over the diahrea of lies he tells are interested in whether Elizabeth Warren lied about her Indian heritage. They are demanding that she take a DNA test to prove that she was truthful...

We all know that Jeb Bush is noted for his outreach to the Hispanic community. Indeed, he married a Mexican-born woman and his kids are mixed, But as the New Yorker reminds us, "ethnic identities are not exactly elective". Lets see if the same people who got outraged over Elizabeth Warren...

There was a thread in religion and philosophy called Miscegenation. The OP of the thread simply asked, "your thoughts"? The responses of posters varied mildly. Some thought wtf, others thought GREAT! At any rate, I've seen one post about racial purity. How the concept of racial purity is just...

http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/05/elizabeth-warrens-cherokee-heritage-raises-questions/ "Elizabeth Warren is under fire for reports she claimed status as a minority lawyer based on a far-back blood connection to the Cherokee line. The Boston Globe reported that the Democratic...

I just heard a report on NY1, Time Warner Cables NYC news station, that said that NYC schools will be requiring all students to report their race. And if they dont do so, a schoo official will actually LOOK at them, and determine their race for them. Furthermore, "Hispanic" can not be used as...

..he said. I am not American, I never resided in the USA. Today I was talking to an Afro-American from New York city. He said that Obama is the first black President of the United States. I asked why black if Obama is as black as white- 50%. The guy said: "Black is the dominant color. It doesn't...

Some years ago a caucasian from South Africa tried to get I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) afirmative action benefits by claiming to be an African American. He was in some college and was trying to get the same benefits as his African ancestried counterparts.. This came about after he...

So, when I was filling out the Community Survey thing for the census, they wanted to know all about the races in my family. I checked other and wrote in human. Anybody else?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Invention_of_the_Jewish_People Dr. Shlomo Sand was on Radio 4's "Start the Week" this morning to talk about his work "The Invention of the Jewish People", whose central thesis seems to be that the idea of a nation-race of Jews is essentially a manufactured...

Jokingly referred to himself as a "mutt" when talking about the future first dog. Does this alter anyone's perception of him as a black president, does it change the way people think he sees himself? And does this invite any similar comments from the Rush Limbaugh's of the world? Rk_uGSBn__c

Now that Senator Obama will be President Obama, can I get a little help here? What is the socially acceptable term/word(s) for whatever he is ??? You know what I mean... If he were to fill out a college application and mark a box(es) under the "R" question, what would it/they be? Also...

Obama thinks he’s the leader of the Free World. He demands to speak at the Brandenburg Gate. Obama to Visit Berlin on July 24 http://www.spiegel.de/international/world/0,1518,564455,00.html

What should the racial categories be on the 2010 census? Or should there be none? The Census Bureau claims there's an April 1, 2007 deadline for it to present its proposed racial categories to Congress. Amazingly, it's getting very little media and political attention, given the huge stakes...
