What is your ethnicity?

Norse · Post by **Norse** » Fri Nov 16, 2007 2:26 pm

Question.

Try and answer what best fits your description.

If you are of mixed ethnicity, choose the one to which you feel more affiliated to.

Why have you distinguished between native North and South Americans but lumped all Black people together?

Norse · Post by **Norse** » Fri Nov 16, 2007 2:42 pm

The same reason why I have lumped all whities together.

North ans south american tribes differ in genetic make-up far greater than, say an englishman and a latvian, or a congoan and a nigerian.

Because jews are not caucasians.

Is it wrong to call a black friend "Caucasianly Challanged"?

TBH, if I were to list each and every ethnical taxanomoical root, not only would the grand majority of you f*ck-brains not know what category you belong to, but it would simply over-go the 12 option limit about 60 fold.

Thanks.

I am certainly more AFFILIATED with my Native American side, but I have more Black Dutch blood in me.

So I chose the former.

What is "black dutch" blood? Is it the same as "!black irish" and "black celtic"?

ie. the indigenous caucasians with dark features?

According to researcher James Pylant, based on his extensive survey of American families claiming Black Dutch as part of their heritage:

"There are strong indications that the original "Black Dutch" were swarthy complexioned Germans. Anglo-Americans loosely applied the term to any dark-complexioned American of European descent. The term was adopted as an attempt to disguise Indian or infrequently, tri-racial descent. By the mid-1800s the term had become an American colloquialism; a derogative term for anything denoting one's small stature, dark coloring, working-class status, political sentiments, or anyone of foreign extraction."
He also writes:

"In contrast to the Anglo-surnamed Melungeons, nearly 60% of American families reporting Black Dutch tradition bear surnames that are either decidedly German or possibly Americanized from Germanic origin." (Pylant, 1997)
German Gypsies, Roma People, are also known as Black Dutch, and there is some overlap in surnames between present-day Gypsies and the American families with a "Black Dutch" tradition.

It helps, I suppose, if you know a little bit about your own roots.
