"now it could be my history book being wrong again but if u are of true spanish  decent which means from spain then my guess is ur caucasian. and last time i checked causasian meant white in this country. "
Now it could just be my english book again but what i took from your statement is you just bunch the largest minority in the US (hispanics) into the same group as caucasian.  But if you were being sarcastic then i see what you were getting at

I don't recall any wide-spread white slaves in recent history.

How about the Irish Catholics.....who were traded on the slave trade market after England pronounced that all Catholics were property not citizens.  They were sent all over the world as slaves.  The most disgusting thing about it, is while you can be sued for showing hatred toward black people (who were also sold throughout the world), you'll get recognition for the same thing against Catholics.

I think this is a silly argument that simply relays our fears about competative ability.


Genetics are not a static thing. As the variables of environment, health and human preferences change, so does the genetic makeup of any given population. Whites and blacks have only been competing (in all facets of life) for less than 100 years. History will note that whatever competitive advantage any race has (again, in all facets of life) will disappear as we all compete together and push each other to improve. Why? Genetics and sexual reproduction will ensure that we remain competitive in the environment we live in.


As an example, in less than 100 years Asians of American decent have increased their height by a considerable amount over their Asian counterparts because Asian men have to compete against others for their females.

Cheers,
