Something I dont understand about race
 
I mean i really dont get this part. The white media has shoved down our throats "that Zimmerman isnt white thing". However Zimmermans father is very white, in fact 100% a white man, no one disagrees with that right?

How come Obamas father is African, and mother white yet he is called a "black" president? Tiger Woods father is black. His mother is Asian. Why is Tiger called a "black" golfer? All three are mixed.

So it depends on how a person looks?

Ted Williams, the Splendid Splinter has a Mexican Mother, but Tedd Ballgame looked like a regular white man so no one worried about it.

Apparently I missed the media emphasis that Zimmerman isn't white - but I do remember the first headlines saying that he was.

Anyhoo, most applications that ask for that sort of thing ask about what racial culture you with which you most identify / perceive yourself. In short, despite what anyone else might think, the only thing that matters is your idea of self.

Obama is more of a white man than Zimmerman. Look it up.

The only thing I know about that is that GFY is not a place for reasonable discussion on ANY TOPIC and that there is pretty much no where on the internet where a meaningful discussion on race can take place.

You might as well be asking about it on 4chan. The answers would be equally useless but they would likely be funnier.

because your not sitting face to face people will talk with racial slurs. would not happen in person. there are people making multiple accounts so they can talk all kinds of crazy.
