You conveniently avoided my questions, here they are again...
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
Back @ at topic:
What do people in this discussion think about British settlers who by their own will, settled in South Africa? They were and still are racist against the black people who were already there, that being the black indigenous South Africans.
Those British people for the purposes of political reasons, as well as for many other underlining reasons, they are fighting for the right to become as South African as the real South Africans. They are fighting to be referred to as South Africans. This very same thing happened to the Aboriginals of Australia.
How does the above relate to this idea of "social constructs, social construction?"
