Fair enough. I spent enough time with Brits when I was in
summer camp to
know
both.

Since you wear baseball caps backwards, maybe you do put bumbags
on the
front?

I shan't try to defend Americans.

That's because you aren't one, you're Jewish.

One can be both you know.

Not one of Robinson's better efforts. Kindler (Orson Welles) tips his
hand when someone refers to Einstein as a German during dinner table
conversation. Kindler corrects them saying, no, he is a Jew.

Jews are like women, they use it as a card to play when they feel
upset.


Thank Wotan Harris isn't a Jew.

Who is that? I suspect you might be thinking of Kamala Harris but
getting her
name wrong? If so her heritage is both Black and Asian (Middle Eastern).

She's Asian today, African tomorrow.

The idea of race is largely cultural. Get someone who is half European
and
half either Black or Asian and they are seen in America as Black or
Asian.
Someone like Tiger Woods who is half Thai and have Black and he is
generally
seen as Black. Someone who is even 1/4 Black is often seen as Black.

But I think it would be fair for Woods to say he is both Black and Asian.

Judging by looks, I'd say he was 50/50. I'd say "halfcast", not "black".

I was an avid reader as a kid and after tiring of 'Look Jane! See Sally
suck Dick!' I moved on to my mother's collection, one of which was a
Civil War era novel by Frank Yerby called 'Foxes of Harrow'. It enriched
my vocabulary. My 7th grade teacher was puzzled when I submitted
'octoroon' as a new word since she didn't have a clue what it meant. She
probably didn't need to know that Stephen Fox was screwing an octoroon
on the side. There are also quadroons and the more familiar mulatto.

fwiw, Yerby may have been a quadroon.

It's in the nose.
