I'm here to provide a little caucasian representation.

My friend always likes to say asians are just like caucasians...without the cauc.

True Story:

In high school intramural arena football there were several different groups represented. Teams included:

- The internationals, consisting of five guys with different ethnic origins
- The U.N, similar to the united nations
- The Mafia, which was a bunch of italians

When we tried to submit our team name as Caucasian Representation, the coordinator simply wouldn't allow it. To me that is racist. You let every other team have a name based on ethnicity, yet when the white guys try, not allowed?

We ended up going with "Speed Kills", because the team was made up mostly of offensive linemen. Funny we can't represent whiteys, but if we poke fun at hoggers that's fine.

personally I think race is something we create, there is no difference between someone who is white, black, Hispanic, Asian, and so forth expect some very minor physical features, yet we use race as a means to put people into categories, and often stereotypical beliefs are attach to those categories, i.e. "Asian kids are good at math", Black people are better athletes"

Ethnicity is something very different, different cultures have different beliefs and values. Which often pertain to the cultural community

"What race are you?"

Is this thread a joke?

Categorize me under the only race, the human race.
