Because there was no chinese, indian, italian, irish, english, arabian, japanese, slavery here in the US and no chinese, indian, italian, irish, english, arabian, japanese only bathrooms, resturants etc...\n\nHowever you are correct in one aspect of your question,  All of these groups were discriminated against, all of us have that in common.

Because the world is changing and diversity is the money of the future. No pure race will remain! May be one day we will find a Moslem as president of USA and an American as president of Saudi Arabia. And we already have a UK citizen as king of Jordan (Abdullah II) and a Haitian woman as Governor of Canada (Michaëlle Jean)!

Um , because English borrows from almost all languages. If you recall, the Brits 'managed' India for many years and those words likely drifted into English, because of course those concepts did not exist in English, likely because of the fact that Christianity does not encourage concepts like 'avatar' and 'guru'.

Yes indeed! In fact they already do offer hundreds of "specialized" courses on the history of European immigration to the US. \n\nFor example, check the web-site of any well known book-seller for : ITALIAN-AMERICAN, IRISH-AMERICAN, RUSSIAN-AMERICAN, LATIN-AMERICAN, etc., etc, etc,.\n\nI'm sure you'll find all you need to know about ANY subject matter related to the culture, art, social structure, and HISTORY OF AMERICANS belonging to a culture, or racial group of EUROPEAN ANCESTRY.\n\nEACH of US...can certainly benefit from studying the ancestral origins of the diverse racial ,ethnic, and cultural groups which comprise the CURRENT population of the\nUNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

Can't be done.  You'd have to say what origins you are including, not just which ones you are excluding.  There's really no such thing as English, historically speaking.  That's a comparatively recent development.  All the way back to way before Chaucer, which is used as an exercise in reading really old English, there was Latin mixed in.  There were words from Celtic, Angles, Saxons, and plenty of others.  You're about a thousand years too late to sort them out now.

well its not easy for a lot of people to just pick up a single language\n\nhowever, it will be simplified eventually; only 8 major languages will remain from the 200 there are currently

There are.  White history is the norm, so it's just called History.\nWhite entertainment is the norm so it's just called Entertainment.\n\nWhite people have had a longer period of time to arrange college funds and equal rights and are less devastated by the processes.  African Americans are catching up, but still need a leg-up in order to compete. One day, hopefully, there will be no need for either 'black' or 'white'......we shall have all blended together and be truly equal.

In Europe, Jewish families didn´t either have family names at all or the family name was the name of the father.\nAt the beginning of the 19 th century, Jews had to choose family names in many european countries. But names from which you could "see" that the person is jewish, that means names which sound jewish, were not allowed because the Jewish people should be assimilated. So, the choosed for example German, French or Russian names.

I've asked that same question many times. We don't get a white history month because that'd be "racist," which is complete bull shit becuase we're the only race that has to kiss everyone elses ass. Everyone else can have pride for their race but if we have white pride we're racist. it's fucked up. We shouldn't have a black history month unless every race got a month.

I'm assuming that the company that puts out the applications just thinks Arabs will choose Asian, as the middle east is technically on the Asian continent.  I think it should be separate though.  Most people think of Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc. when they think of Asian, and the culture in the middle east is much different from the that of the  aforementioned countries.  Although as I've said before, it's just for statistical purposes.  I've put Alaskan Native before and no one said anything. lol

Many mixed race people have Irish descent!  There just may be other nationalities tossed in such as French or English.
