White: subjective and changing definition. dependent on definition, interpretation and culture.
No, it doesn't have a changing definition.

The world knows what White is, and I know that I am White. Only an idiot thinks that the definition changes or doesn't know what White is.


Anglo-saxon: more objective, relatively well-defined, specific to a culture and ethnic group.
Anglo-Saxons are consiting of three distinct Germanic tribes. Whites consist of the tribes of people migrating from the Black Sea Region.


white =/= anglo-saxon.
Of course.



Ok this is it for my part here. I'm done!

Eres pendejo o nomas te ases?


No.

Becasue you didn't notice.
Nobody said it was. Ask ANYONE(White, Black, Asian) that lived here their whole life (or 10-20 years at least) and they'll tell you that it's worse.

Is it IMPOSSIBLE for you to think that it's the people that did it? A great portion of our population is immigrants.


Because the first one makes sense while the second doesn't.
Why?

Why wasn't it like that before?

Why is proud of my Anglo-Saxon heritage accepted, yet my White heritage isn't?

Told you you just live in a shithole.

What are you proud of? The fact that you have British descent? Thats fine. The fact that you have european culture? No problem. The fact that you are white? That is stupid.

I'm proud, but if I show it, I'm labeled a racist.

You study European history ONLY during that month?  Pretty pathetic.  

I studied European History AP for a WHOLE year last year.

Like all your posts are an excuse to be proud of your heritage?

Study European History, their contributions to the world, and many other things.

It's pretty much an excuse for them to be proud of their heritage (yet I can't).

It ends when the month ends.
The list doesn't end.

And, if you didn't know, all other Latin Americans claim Puerto Ricans think they're better than other Latin Americans.

Hm....

That's not how they celebrate Hispanic month here.
That is how we do it here.  

I made no mention of people from Spain. Only of spanish-speaking.  

I don't know how you speak white.


I told you: They celebrate it differently here.

They speak Spanish, yes, but they do that all the time so it's no difference.


It's pretty much, at school, we have to read books by Hispanic authors, we have to go listen to Spanish music, we have to learn about a few people who had some sort of influence on America, we have to eat Latin American food (that's what they serve at lunch, even more commonly than the other months), we have to read about the history of a lot of Latin American countries, ect ect ect.

It doesn't end.

That's not how they celebrate Hispanic month here.

And, again, people from Spain don't consider themselves Hispanic as it would hint at Latin American, not White(Which they usually consider themselves).

How do Negroes celebrate their month, and how do Hispanics celebrate their month.

Answer THIS, and you will partially have your answer.
