Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

For over half a century, the populations of Israel and Palestine have been at war over the former Ottoman territory that they inhabit today. The major causes of the...

It's hard to "settle" the "race question" when no one can agree on the definition of 'race'. In everyday life, we look at someone and passively label them as 'white', 'Black', etcetera, yet these...

Hi, renaissance12

You’ll have to be more specific. What about the frequency of the electromagnetic waves?

Keeping with the analogy of race and basic color terms, the frequency of the...

In my time on The Apricity Forum, and beyond for that matter, I’ve found that many take issue with my perception of race. For this reason, I thought it’d be ameliorative to explain my position by...

Why're you so mad, bro? You clearly haven't read the rest of the thread.

I made my thoughts on race clear:
• “These ‘superficial’, phenotypic, physical, and morphological similarities are the...

Finally, someone who gets it.

While I agree that race is more than just skin color, with all due respect, grouping black Labradors and cane corsos is a piss-poor analogy. Morphologically, these two breeds are distinctly...

My brother in Christ, you are getting it twisted. The racial concepts of the Japhethic, Semitic, and Hamitic races were appropriated from the Table of Nations. In other words, these classifications...

As you mentioned, Therefore, Ecuatoguineanos are inherently Hispanic. Conversely, Philippines are not all Hispanic. While their country certainly possesses Hispanic ancestry, at present, the...

In part (for the most part). 'Hispanic' refers to someone of or relating to a Spanish-speaking people or culture. Ergo, one does not need to speak Spanish to be considered Hispanic; of course this'll...

Yes, but if race has to do with physical appearance and not genotype, then both Oceanic Negroids and SSA are Black.

Skin color isn't the only factor, but generally speaking, yes; not every country, but I brown continuum appears to exist.119241

I think these features are the majority. The characteristics of brown skin, dark hair, etcetera are surely rife throughout MENASA. Why wouldn't they be?

These "superficial", phenotypic, physical, and morphological similarities are the basis for any race, imo. I'm less concerned with genotypic comparisons and more so with observable, yet subjective...

Are you suggesting that race oughtta be tied to genetics? Personally, I would rather separate these ideas. When determining the race of someone on the street, no one's gonna take the time to...

According to the racial scheme of 17th century German historian and geographer, Georgius Hornius, the Japhetites (identified as Scythians, an Iranic ethnic group and Celts) are "white"...

Major races
• Negroids

◦ Sub-saharan negroids

◦ Oceanic Negroids (e.g. Negritos, Papuans, Melanesians, etcetera)
• Caucasoids (e.g. Europeans, Japhethites, Japhethized Semites, Japhethized...

Muy hispánica. Thanks for sharing; I like it.

Yeah, a meta-cultural term. Even more meta than Anglo-, Hispano-, etcetera.

It's a stretch, but maybe the Zamboangueño people?

Touché. It just goes to show then that Latino is either a meta- or pseudo-ethnicity.

It's respectful to call people what they want to be called (as long as it's not offensive). Nevertheless, we're seeing more and more dissolution of reality be it deviating from one's biological sex...

Being Hispanic or Latino is about descent too, I agree, but good luck being accepted as an Anglophone Hispanic when so many Hispanics do speak Spanish. At that point, I don't think descent is going...

I don't think mestizo immigrants are to blame per se, surely the U.S. government who continues to group us in weird ways. I think it's really just an organic failure that both Mestizos (not...
