That’s your nationality. My ancestors were German and Irish, I am NOT. My nationality is American. A matter of fact, since I was born here, I consider myself a native American. But my race is human.

Mine is still sitting on my counter in the kitchen. I really need to send it back in. Is there a deadline on returning it? I will wait till the last day. I am moving later this year anyway so mine will for the most part be useless.

I would think that your species is human; your origin is your race.

I’m a human, not a species of animal. Ever heard of the Human Race.

Seeing who is behind it, I see this particular Census is not in the spirit of the constitution. I will not be filling it out.

They told me I had to do a Selective Service too. I didn’t. Everything is fine.

I got a call here at work the other day from the NY Dept of Transportation wanting a quote. The guy asked if we were a minority owned business. I knew he noticed my thick southern drawl and I noticed his thick northern accent. I paused for a second and asked if it really mattered. He said he has to get three quotes and one has to be from a minority owned company.
I went into the explaination that we are a publicly traded company and don’t have any one owner and such. I asked if people really judge businesses based on race where he is from. (ironic because us southerners are supposed to be the racists)
He asked if I knew of any businesses around there that were minority owned. I told him that usually when we do busines, we don’t judge or ask if they are minority or not. We simply go with the best business.

I am sure the guy was just doing his job, but damn. That is actual NY policy...... and white people just accept it.

I think that’s a fine term... for a globalist. ;-)

American by birth.
Southern by the grace of God.

You should write down that you are black or some other minority.

That way your community will get more free stuff.

I did the same thing.

They asked for my phone number “in case we don’t undertand any of your answers.”

Heh-heh....waiting for THAT phone call!

I don’t think of myself as a color or race. I am American and so are my family members. That is the answer they got from us.

My nationality is American.

If African American can be a race, why can't American?
