The only reason I pointed out my race is to make a point.  If I was to
call myself black, would you have had anything to say to me?  In PC terms
(politically correct), it would be wrong to say I was black.  Just like
we don't say colored, negro, nigga, chinks, japs, mexicans, wet backs or
any other racial slurs because it offensive to some people.  I am not
black, but have a caramel colored complexion, so excuse me if I have
offended you in calling myself African-American.
