I think there's still this mentality that they're being held back by other people, when the only people who are actually doing that are themselves.

Some black people do tend to pull out the race card a bit too often.

They were never forced into slavery, their ancestors were but they aren't their ancestors

Now let's not talk about what gets users upset.....I recall a specific user here...what was her name? Anyway I'm not upset about either. Just tired of users that haven't anything better to do than obsess about me.;)

African descent or something, just being called black bugs me, we have Caucasians for white, but then we have african american but i'm not from african so i agree with MrMusicMan in that respect. But like i said its just a little thing thats not even a big deal to me, just don't like when people don't remember my name they refer to me as that black guy, just a smalllll pet peeve.

I don't mind black. But I would rather be called by the country my family is actually from.

Yeah but how many times do you hear Caucasian as opposed to white? I hear white more. I'm not a color man.:cry::P
