Please, you tell me, is there a such thing as a limitation on concepts of any nature? In this mattere race. If so, was what I discussed outside of the limit? Let me remind you. Again, outside the limit of race, concepts of race.
Is there no such thing as layers within concepts? If so, was what I discussed not one of the layers?
Is there only one degree to a concept? If so, I guess your degree was the one and the only one. 
You are going to say I was discussing titles but lets make it clear. I was discussing that black people in America are having challenges when it comes to what their specific title is. Does that not fit into the scheme of this discussion?
Concept: Thought, Notion, Idea

I did not say or suggest that you were off topic of the discussion, I explained that your interpretation of my statements was incorrect. You interpreted me as saying that people should accept the label society gives them, which is not what I was saying. Generally when any social theorist refers to concepts of race, they are referring to an understanding of the existence of race and what race means in itself, not individuals' racial categorizations of themselves. So when you referred to my point as letting others title me, you were referring to my point inaccurately.
