I always thought they were going to grow up and test out PlayStations on rainy days and bicycles on sunny days - genealogists are geeky and boring. 
Yes, I am a bastard like that.

I'm not labeling anyone.Jesus - we are all "In America" right? Why label with what "roots" you have? That was part of yesterday's discussion - labeling of one another, but labeling yourself is OK? Whatever dude, if that is what floats your boat so be it.
Frankly, I am not hung up on what Eastern-block European country my roots are in, I could care less.What matters is what I am today and what I will be tomorrow, and for my children.
What say you?
For instance.
What ethnicity do you claim?
Are you not proud of your heritage?
I'm American - through and through - I fought for my country - and I'm damn proud.
But, it doesn't change the fact that my culture and heritage is something that I'm proud of too.
We're all Americans. I agree. But, I bet you the people with Irish ancestry are just as proud as I am of my ancestry.

I do not claim an ethnicity - my past has been so jumbled the records are lost and unclear. Honestly there are three major stories and all three are probable
Bottom line I could care less. :shrug: With my Ethnicity and $1.25 I can get a large cup of coffee at 7-11, that will get me far...I am glad you are an American, like I - that is what I am and that is what I care about...
Someone with Irish roots are proud of their ethnicity on March 23rd, but I get what you are saying - but they do not say I am an "Irish American" do they? I never paid attention. :shrug:

Been there, done that... but we are digressing - bottom line is I think the "Label in America" is 'effing stupid, but that is my opinion.

I'm not replying to anyone cause jesus, there are some screwed up people on here.
African American is how I describe myself because whenever I fill out an application for a job or anything else, it's the term that best describes me. That's pretty much it.
If you are from South Africa, and you want to call yourself an African-American, hell, go for it. I couldn't care less......
In my eyes, the Ethic-Nationality stands for Roots or genes, and country of citizenship... Much like African Ancestry ( the black-tribal kind ) and American citizenship.
If you are white, and you are from South Africa, then you are not African, cause if you were, you would have brown skin. You roots come from the Dutch, French, blah blah blah.. but I won't argue about it. Go for it. There are tons of white folks who want to be black. Just join the club.... White folks roast themselves in an oven to get a tan, now they are calling themselves African American, they support and defend hip-hop/jazz/soul, what's next, butt implants and lip injections? Oh, sorry, I'm a little late.
I am not a racist. My first wife was white, so shove it Vrai.
I am not taking anyone's word on here for anything. Period. I don't believe any of you, I am right, you are wrong, kiss my ass.
LMBAO, I've had it....... NOBAMA, NoMCAIN!!!! Lets just arm everyone and fight to the death!!!! Ah, I'm tired and I'm going home. Long day at work. See yall tomm.......

Why does it sound like your a racist tomahawk202?? Talking about white folks want to be black. You sound like you stero type. Here is another question -- why do people use the term African American? That's a term the man made up. Over 90% of black americans have native american in their heritage if they want to admit it or not and not to just say I got indian in me cause I have good hair. When they call themselves african american they deny their native american heritage. You don't hear white people call themselves European american do you? I just say black. I'm native american myself -- not indian. My relatives aren't from india like dumb a-- columbus thought. First it was Negro, then colored and african american. WOW.

I'm not siding with Tomohawk.
But...
Irish-Americans do it all the time.
They are proud of their heritage.

Yup, I'm a racist. Married a white girl, whom I still remain really good friends with by the way... but I am a racist, huh?
And you are American Indian? Good for you. Sorry, I am fresh out of cookies, or I would give you one.

You know I see more and more black men stating "my girlfriend/wife is/was white" As if this is proof you are not a racist.Yup, I'm a racist. Married a white girl, whom I still remain really good friends with by the way... but I am a racist, huh?
And you are American Indian? Good for you. Sorry, I am fresh out of cookies, or I would give you one.
Whenever a whitey says "I have black friends" most people take that as code for I am at least a little racist but afraid to say so.
I personally believe we are a little bit racist or at the least biased towards our particular race. JMHO
Oh and some of my best friends are black!
