White People

I recently discovered a book about what white people like, and I found a blog to go with it, so I checked it out. It is
hilarious, no  matter what color you are! You can visit it
here

There is also a video website about white people called
"White People Gone Grazy".

I didn't know there was a play about white people, but there is. The website is here


I found the blog of a lost white guy trying to understand what it means to be white here.


Of course, you have to watch the video about the necessity of exterminating white people in order to save the planet. This dude does have cool hair here

Oh and if you like rhythm and soul music you'll love the band "White People". Listen the them here

We all know about Bill Cosby's soapbox stand that "We can't blame white people", but if you'd like to review it again, you can read it here here

 
Did you ever wonder where the term "cracker" or "white cracker" originated? You might find your answer  here

Is there a difference between Caucasian and white? Apparently
so. I found this explanation on englishforums.com

"Caucasian refers to individuals from with light or pale skin
ranging from people who would have somewhat darker tan
colored skin.  This would include people whose ancestry comes
from Europe, North Africa (Egypt, which is in the
Mediterranean area and also includes such countries of Italy,
Greece, and Lebanon), and Middle East.  Caucasian has become
almost synonymous with white, but in the traditional since it
is not.  Although Caucasian would include white people, it's
not ONLY referring to white people.  For example Jews
(speaking of those individuals who share common genetics due
to being united by a religion [ethnoreligion] NOT someone
from another ethnicity who converted to Judaism as a religion
[changing religions does NOT change genetics) are not
considered to be white people in the traditional sense.  Though
many of them may have light skin (EX: Jerry Seinfeld, Adam
Sandler, Jon Stewart), they may also range to a darker color
(EX: Gene Simmons [real name: Chiam Witz] the bassist [I
think] for the rock band KISS and Sasha Barron Cohen). 
Hispanics also range in a wide variety of colors; I
personally have known many who appear to be as light as a
white person ranging all the way up to Hispanics from Puerto
Rico who may appear to be black (though they are NOT black,
but Hispanic).  Black people also range from many different
skin tones; some may be as light as a tan color, and some may
be actually black (as in black and NOT brown), such as those
actually from Africa.  To answer the question of white
people; it is, in the traditional since, referring to people
of Western European heritage (e.g. Britain, Ireland,
Scotland, Germany)."
