[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by _Mouse: [qb] ^ Who cares,,, Blacks are obsessed with whites just as much as whites are obsessed. Just take a look at the typical banter that goes on on this forum. PURE OBSESSION WITH RACE. [/qb][/QUOTE]In one sense "Blacks" and "Whites" appear to be opposites competing. In another sense "Blacks" and "Whites" enjoy obsessing on each other as a game because subconsciously they both enjoy the privilege of being clearly defined by symbolic colors. The other people of the world varying shades of light to dark don't identify by skin color. For example a Mexican doesn't call themselves a "brown" and though some of them may be as dark as a "black" person they don't call themselves "black". They identify as Mexicans, nationality not skin color. Similarly a Japanese person may have the exact same skin color as "white" person but they don't call themselves "white". They identify themselves as Japanese. So called "Black people" and so called "White people" like to obsess on each other because they think that being identified by a symbolic skin color is a privilege. This is why "African American" was an advance for us out of this nonsense. But we reverted back to "Black" (Negro in Spanish) because we can't get off of that European created skin color based sense of entitlement. This is why I prefer to call myself "African American" But why be long winded. A Japanese person might have been born America and their parents born in America. Yet they still call themselves "Japanese" if you ask them and leave out the obvious "American" attachment to that. This is why I call myself African Technically an African American [/QB][/QUOTE]
