As far as I understand, I'm mostly West Virginian, Irish, and German, and one of my grandparent's grandma was some kind of Indian. But I was born in Murica, and generally consider myself a Human.

My dad always said we were from Lapland - where Oklahoma laps over into Arkansas. lol

[Oh Shoot]

... the town of Gene Autry, Oklahoma

 

That town has really grown,  158 as of 2010 census!

So you are African American? What country in Africa? Sudan? Botswana? Can Arabs call themselves African Americans? Can Asian Indians call themselves Asians or is that just for orientals, Japanese, Chinese etc. The term African American is discrimination since it doesn't include Arabs or white South Africans and also the term Asian American since it doesn't include Indians, Jews and some Russians.

I guess my ancestry couldn't be more UN-PC, my ancestors are English and Scottish, some came to America before the Mayflower, had some distant uncle who was a slave owner and my great great grandfather was a LT. in the 9th Tennessee CSA.

For me my history is interesting to know I guess but it's over and gone, doesn't exist anymore, that's why it's history. Today in 2015 i'm just an American and Tennessean. And no i'm not including Canadians and Mexicans when I say American.

Bersa... You have put your finger on a great problem plaguing the good ole USA... The liberal intelligentsia has been feedin baloney to most everybody that would listen for the last 50 years or so about "...da man dun put you down because you are a_____________(...fill in the blank...)..."...

 

It is tribalism pure and simple... Pit one group against another and lead them around like children... Its a technique to divide, not unite... The goal is to have liberal oligarchs (...and some republican ones too..) who order you around, while tellin you they are helpin your particular "tribe"; when nothin could be further from the truth...

 

It's akin to peein down somebody's leg while tellin them your are helpin them...

That was what I was hoping to do when I made the post was draw attention to just how screwed up all of this really is.
