What you are talking about, from what I gather from your post(s) is colonization issues not 'race' issues. It may appear to be a 'race' issue because the parties involved are of different 'races', but what you seem to be concerned with is colonization. In many cases a discussion of 'race' runs parallel to that of colonization but they are not one in the same.

Ch2tf,
Hey buddy!!!! I just want to add that, when defining a white person born in South Africa, the ethnotype is defined as South Afrikkaner. This is done specifically to make the distinction between blacks born in South Africa and whites born there. Sista, I hope tha you don't mind me trying to help school your catamitish ass, cause I do so out of love.
