I won’t capitalize it because it’s not proper grammar and I don’t feel any obligation to entertain the worldview of communists.
European, Asian, American, African, Oceanian. The five species of humanity. Not all *Homo europeansis* are white, but all whites are *Homo europeansis europeansis.* White and black are terms of convenience, nothing more. We don’t say ‘yellows’ or ‘reds’ anymore, and then what do you do with the multiple *types* of ‘browns’ that can be entirely separate species? Hell, some of the reds look pretty brown, even though they’re an offshoot of the yellows.

The Reds being offshoots of the yellows, I have a theory that the American Indians didn't come across the Bearing Straight because they were looking for new lands and had the explorer spirit.
I think they were driven out of Asia by the Chinese and Mongols and such. Basically, I think the Feather Indians are basically the niggers of Asia that got kicked out and they migrated south from that.

First Reds appeared in Americas 30k-40k years ago. They may have crossed through the Bering Strait when it was covered by ice, but there was a Norwegian guy who crossed the ocean on a tiny raft, back in mid 20th century to prove that it was possible.

The associated press is a conglomerate of news agencies from around the globe that are financed and or controlled by the nose. Nothing ever gets traction unless it’s approved.

> There was clear desire and reason to capitalize Black. Most notably, people who are Black have strong historical and cultural commonalities, even if they are from different parts of the world and even if they now live in different parts of the world. That includes the shared experience of discrimination due solely to the color of one’s skin.
> There is, at this time, less support for capitalizing white. White people generally do not share the same history and culture, or the experience of being discriminated against because of skin color. In addition, we are a global news organization and in much of the world there is considerable disagreement, ambiguity and confusion about whom the term includes.
> We agree that white people’s skin color plays into systemic inequalities and injustices, and we want our journalism to robustly explore those problems. **But capitalizing the term white, as is done by white supremacists, risks subtly conveying legitimacy to such beliefs.**
