Why do so many non-europeans look to Europe of cultural relavence?

March 18th, 2010
  • Many blacks are quick to name off anglo ethnicites like Irish, "white", french, etc. "Latinos" always say thier spanish, (and by the way latino derives out of the Italic languages in Europe). The only exception is the many who try to claim the small amount of Native American they have. Basically what sayin is very few claim Ne'gro African or Monglo Asian ethnicities. Why does every look to Europe for thier cultural identity?


  • I'm a Kitty From Spain Who likes to be judged by Kittys and why do people identify them selves as europeans or what?? lol Well how do you know this or what??


  • If my obscure ancestor was raped by a white guy, I wouldn't be running around bragging about it. I can't speak for Americans because I'm 100% black. I do know, however, that Latinos do NOT always say they're Spanish. In fact, most of them are proud of their culture, not to mention that they recognize the ethnic diversity in Latino countries. Most black and white people are also pretty misguided about their heritage. Many whites have black blood and don't pay any attention to it, and most black people aren't informed about their distant Chinese or White ancestor. It's just so miniscule a percentage of your race that it isn't recognizable after a while.


  • I do NOT, I identify as my African ethnicity, I do not need Europeans to define me.


  • Yeah right, one of the biggest reasons everyone gets mad at blacks for not claiming the white side..Look what all you guys say about Obama because he says hes black. He has never said he was white, Irish. english, or anything.

    I just identify as American cause thats where I can trace all my ancestors to.
