Seems racist to me


Of course it is. But it's 'okay', since whites are so privileged.

I'm late to the party but this whole "white" thing is identity theft.

As EMJ says, a white boy is a protestant who stopped going to church. When you are white, you have no identity therefore you are wrong and have already lost.

I identify as Catholic and I hope more "whites" do so too.

Yep. Funny how democrats espouse inclusiveness while intentionally being divisive.

But black and brown folks are monolithic in their history, culture and discrimination experience? That's simply not true, and incredibly insulting to black and brown people


I think what AP is saying is that all black people look alike.

What about Asian?

Apparently Asians are brown not yellow now.
I never called anyone a brown person as a description of color.

I have a lot of black friends so I’m not racist at all

"Brown" isn't even a race. It's just a skin color. It's racist as frick. If you call a Mexican a "Brown" you'd probably get your arse kicked. You call an Indian a "Brown" and you probably would get sued. People who are about as geographically, culturally, and genetically different as it goes, and you're going just just call them "Browns"?
