Recently I was joking around with a coworker, and made a remark characterising her as a "typical white girl". She then corrected me, saying she wasn't in fact white... citing her surname, Sanchez, as proof. I then appologized for not realizing she was Mexican. She then corrected me again , informing that she wasn't Mexican, but rather Spanish!
Now I know for a fact that Spain is still considered part of Europe. And I've always equated "white" with peoples of European descent. But am I mistaken here? Are Spaniards not considered "white"? Does the term "white" only apply to northern Europeans, and so exclude the Iberian peninsula or countries bordering the Mediterranean? This needs to be cleared up if we're ever to fulfill Dr. King's dream of racial harmony.
I call bullshit on the above post. We all know Hyde is really unemployed and homeless.
