One of our co-workers here looks white, but he's actually Mexican and white. If he hadn't told me this, I would have never guessed.

Wow a Mexican white person. You do realize Mexico is a country not a race. You do know they have white south africans.

He identifies as Mexican, just like his wife. But the correct term could be Latino or Hispanic.

Charlie Theron, which is funny that she won't identify as African American.

Aw shucks, y'all. I've been super busy with school and work. And since I only post on my boss's dime, more work means less posting. :crying::crying::crying:

Posting on the bosses dime is good. Make them pay for your vj addiction. Lol

Never said I didn't. Some threads are in fact about racial differences. And there's nothing wrong with pointing that out, but there seems to be this idea that myself or Janelle CAN"T talk about race.

Of course you can. The only point I am making is that you do post a lot about race related subjects and bring them into the thread on occasion. No more or less than many others.

You do sometimes feign dissapointment when it gets brought into conversations, which I find odd.

It's like the pot calling the kettle. .pops better not go there. Lol

Seriously don't go acting like you are not just as guilty as others including me.

As for you leaving..you have every right to be here and it would be boring without you.

Not disappointment, more like bewilderment. Folks be like I can't stand it when we talk about race, but that's ALL they want to talk about. It's one thing to discuss racism, another when you want to bash black people(not you, but in general). I think racism rubs people the wrong way since they think it doesn't exist, or it flies in the face of what they really believe.

My second thing is myself and Janelle aren't the only ones who post threads about race, but we're the only ones who get called out about it. I remember when Janelle posted a thread about black people and someone straight up asked her was she black, like it mattered. Or that she had a chip on her shoulder, even though she was polite and did nothing to show otherwise.

We're not going anywhere. Takes more than some back handed insult to get rid of both of us.

Once again. You are no more or less guilty than many others, and others get called out also.

Since yesterday, I've posted 3 threads that dealt with race.

Since Friday, there have been over 20 threads on Islam.

Janelle and I have to make conscience decisions NOT to post something about race sometimes just because we're focused on more.
