A couple of years ago my wife and I joined to aid Physicians without borders pleas to save some 4,000,000 starving in west africa. As it turned out the local warlords(blacks) had taken the free food to sell on the black market. We probably won't be participating in their politics again. Such a tragedy and a shame.

As a long-time History teacher, AND part Native American, I have LONG thought that the Native Americans Columbus encountered should have done what their counterparts did to later European explorers: killed and eaten Columbus.

My original sentiment STILL stands, though.....

Caucasians are from Caucasia. It is what we now refer to as northern Turkey and part of Iran.



I thought we were talking about the race of people white/caucasion. I'm afraid your googling is letting you down. Though there is much info to be obtained from the net, one does need to be able to understand it.

The term is often used interchangeably with Caucasian American, European American or Anglo American. [2] It is also inclusive of a large number of Hispanic Americans. The exact term White American is however, rarely used."

On your "dig"...

Yes, I make mistakes...maybe you could advise me how you learned not to. It is an honor to meet a 'perfect' person.
Look what has happened in south Africa. The Dutch settled there when there was nothing and they turned into a thriving metropolis. Then out of the jungle comes the low end of the evolutionary ladder
humanoids. Now they want to take something they did not have the brains to build for themselves.

It does not matter where blacks live the majority of them want something for nothing. They want someone else to do it for them and then they ruin it. Look at the nice housing projects that are given to blacks to live in here in the USA. The native American Indian is the same way. They have housing give to them and they ruin it. Native American Indidans are some of the nastiest people I have seen. They let garbage pile up outside their homes on the reservations.

I didn't Google the word Caucasian. I learned that in COLLEGE from some TURKISH students and a history professor. Aside from that - we're not talking about Americans in Africa anyway. We're talking about British and French and Dutch people who have gone in and taken land from the people who are indigenous to the region.


Lets see now...you started out using the term "white"...then you changed it to "caucasion"...now you jump to indigenous.

Will you define "indigenous"...as I am not sure you have a clue as to what the subject is here. You think a "caucasion" is someone fron a region called Caucasia. While that is true, that has nothing to do with the 'Caucasion race'...which is what the subject is about.

So, if you will, define "indigenous".

The story you referenced isn't a RACE issue, it is a RACISM issue. Any time a culture decides who gets what / when / how based on race, you can bet it will also be a decision based on ignorance.


Good observation Smart Chick... but the thing is, isn't that what is going on over here? Very subtley? Isn't that what a lot of people here want... to get the Caucasean OUT of Washington?

Just something to think about.

No need to be: you play that role quite well.


So he is a racist and wins the award according to you? And he asked you to educate him... and you gave him a flip answer.. .. now that you aren't picking apart everything "I" say, you are moving to someone else???

You have given us all "NAMES" on the forum, what is yours? We will allow you the pleasure of picking it out yourself Big Grin
Africa, for the most part, is a corrupt continent....been that way for 1000's of years....I see nothing new, whether it be Egyptians holding Israelites as slaves circa 2000 B.C., or tribal warlords selling their captives to white slave traders from 1500-1820 A.D. (suprise, suprise, suprise many a student in college learned, as it was not PC to teach that truth...as you might offend black people in the public schools with that fact), to apartheid in South Africa, to Tutsis killing Hutus/others in the millions via the machete in the early 1990's, to warlords taking U.N. and Live Aid money that was supposed to go for food instead blown on trinkets and garbage for the "leaders" while the people starve (and giving Sally Struthers a job to play on your heartstings at 2 a.m. during infomercials on cable TV), to Darfor, Somalia, Rhodesia, etc.......

It will never end.

Caucasions originated not from the main part of Turkey, but a little farther to the east, the Caucusus Mountains area between the Black and Caspian Sea region of NW Asia/Southern Russia. Modern Caucusus countries include: Republic of Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, northern Iran, northern Iraq, Kurds, and Kurdish Turkey (eastern part).
quote:
My statement is a fact any way you want to phrase it: White / caucasian people are not indigenous / naturally found in Africa.


Allow me to post the M-W definition...

________________________________________________

Main Entry: Cau·ca·sian
Pronunciation: ko-'kA-zh&n, kä- also -'ka-zh&n
Function: adjective
1 : of or relating to the Caucasus or its inhabitants
2 : of, constituting, or characteristic of a race of humankind native to Europe, North Africa, and southwest Asia and classified according to physical features -- used especially in referring to persons of European descent having usually light skin pigmentation

________________________________________________

As with most words, they have more than ONE meaning. You have refered to the #1 meaning...inhabitants of Caucasia.
Just as you are an American, they are a Causaian


Definition #2 refers to the RACE of peoples, and where they are native (indigeneous) to.


I graduated from the school of hard knocks, I can however, see where the definition states...>NORTH AFRICA<.

Is your COLLEGE education blocking that out or what? Can you not see the words NORTH AFRICA or do you disagree with it? What grounds are you standing on here?
