I don’t mean to say this to offend you, of course there are people who are of mixed race.
It’s just that The NYT (in particular) never uses this phrase (per Dennis Prager), until just now, when it’s to their advantage - to stir up some racial annimosity.
My family is heavily bi racial (White, Black, Phillipino, etc.) but I honestly don’t look at them as “white black” or “white phillipno”. People are people - and I don’t doubt that you know this quite well.
No offense taken South Hawthorne, I was just showing everyone that White Hispanics do exist and Zimmerman is by no means one of them. I never use the term White Hispanic for myself I am White I do not speak Spanish nor Italian for that matter. I do speak American English as well as British English which I learned at a very young age in Irish Protestant school. I am a Caucasian who happens to also be a decedent of true Spaniards. There is nothing wrong with people who are mixed having pride in their mixed Hispanic heritage all Hispanics are after all some or totally decedent from Spaniards I see them as cousins but not brothers. But the media is pushing him as a “White” he is not he is mixed and should be labeled as such.
