Many (or the most) terrorist attacks committed in the U.S. happen to be white males, then ALL white males = biggest terror threat.
I am sure you know the differences between extreme right-wing white males and all white males, do you?
Like I posted earlier (looks like you only chose to quote ONE sentence to make your so called point), the
"white males is the biggest terror threat" mentality is exactly the same mentality of justifying to put ALL japanese-Americans of west coast in the internment camp during ww2. My relative was a mixed woman who looking nothing like a typical Asian, but it doesn't matter, one drop rule made her dangerous.
The painting an entire group of people with one broad brush mentality is dangerous. If minories really want true equality, then "one rule for all, or no rule at all." You (the general term) think saying "the biggest terror threat in this country is *insert a group of people other than white men here*" is racist, then saying "the biggest terror threat in this country is white men" is also racist. It is how it works.
Again, no one said all white males. Most terrorist attacks are committed by white males and therefore, the biggest terror threat lies within that group. That does not mean that ALL white males are terrorists.
I don't get this thread. American culture is just all the different cultures thrown into a blender and poured out.
White culture in America is American culture
Black culture in America in American culture
Asian culture in American is American culture
This is because Americans take the stuff they want in a culture and discard the rest, so in essence your left with Americanized everything. Marrying a black person or an Asian person doesn't change your culture if your already American.
The only people that can claim a change in culture are new arrivals to the USA,but by generation 3 there assimilated.
There's a growing number of Americans who are mixed race and identify as such.
Do you believe that much will change -with respect to how Americans collectively view race, given the influx of people with multi-racial identities? I ask because much of the discussions are often focussed around white vs black in the U.S., but with the increase in multi-racial people and the dwindling of the black American and white American populations, I foresee America changing drastically.

This has always been a puzzling topic to me. As far as I can tell we are all "mud people" as they like to say. If you've done any DNA testing most likely you will find that you are a mongrel.

I understand this, but kind of stupid, because black Americans are fairly mixed to begin with.

Every commercial on TV is like a dose of diversity now. There's nothing organic about it...it's all so incredibly forced.

Every human on this planet is a mixture of more than one race. I am 3/4 English, 20% Irish, 2% Scandinavian, 2% Native American, and 1% Nigerian. One of my direct ancestors married a freed slave in Maryland in the 1700s, and back further than that, his grandfather three or four generations before him settled in with the Catawba tribe on the Congaree River here in South Carolina.
My wife added Syrian and Italian blood to our children. Both sets of her grandparents floated over here in the 1920s.
Knowing about the Nigerian blood would have killed a few of my more recent relatives outright had they known it, but I am happy to say I have suffered no ill effects from being a mongrel. As a matter of fact, I endorse and recommend it highly.
