Aren't we all just shades of brown? Well, except for Albinos.

I thought we called them black because black is opposed to white and white is symbolic for virtue.

Don't know. Blame the Spaniards. Negro = black, so, whatever.

Black is black. When the whites draw a line in the sand Himu and Tiger Woods will be on the same side

PD would too but he's too shy to come out. He's not about winning the war in one false swoop.

Calling black people black is like calling white people white. 

Maybe we should just be browns and beiges.

We should refer to individuals as their hexidecimal color values.

Tieno closet racist confirmed.
My OP had a message of unity and connectedness. We all have a little bit of brown in our bodies, except for albinos.
