Try being an American first and a minority second.

Tell this to Italian-Americans, Irish-Americans, German-Americans, Polish-Americans, Japanese-Americans , Chinese- Americans, etc.

Only when blacks speak up do we hear this. We are a minority and for all of American history whites have done the whining. You whine today about racial preferences and ignore the fact that whites have been the ones to get the most preference. WHITES are the most protected group in this country. Whites can make up grievances and what they imagine gets turned into laws. Voter "integrity" is a prime example of it.

So is the claim about Asians and affirmative action.

Most people do not call themselves a hyphen American

Only the far lefties insist on listing themselves as only half American

 

[Canon Shooter]

I believe if anyone wants to call themselves an American, that should be paramount.

These hyphenated bullshit labels are stupid...

America does not have a history of racism against white groups. It was ethnocentrism and those white groups decided to unify behind the race card.

An acquaintance of mine -- someone who was born in Japan and emigrated to America -- was honored with a banquet by the Japanese-American Citizens' League and he refused to go. He said, "I'm American". Said a lot. I respected him a great deal for that statement, especially knowing the story of how his family suffered after Pearl Harbor. They lost everything they had but their identity as Americans.

The hyphen-Americans need to look long and hard at who they are. I have Sioux blood and I refuse to call myself a "Native American". Stupid virtue signaling white liberals use that phrase. I am an American with mixed white and indian blood.

A Proclamation on Irish-American Heritage Month, 2022 | The White House

For centuries, Irish Americans have played a crucial role in helping define the soul of our Nation, and today, nearly 1 in 10 Americans proudly trace their roots back to the Emerald Isle. With hope and faith in their hearts, the first immigrants from Ireland crossed the Atlantic in search of...

Didn't hear any whining and complaints about this. You didn't see blacks talking about protesting the month or denigrating it. It's time some whites in this country drop the entitlement mentality.

The America you claim never existed. The belief that your skin color makes you better is untrue. The story that whites have what they do only because of hard work and merit is not so. The belief that the only real Americans are white was disproven by the fact that people of color were standing on the shores of this country when European ships first landed here.

If there can be Irish-Americans, there can be African Americans and no one white should have squat to say about it.

 

[Baron Von Murderpaws]

Anybody who tells me "I'm 'something'-American", I stop listening to them. They are dead to me.
They are NOT American, they are just users, abusers, hypocrites, and liars.

Don't have any fucking time to waste on them. Losers!

Why dont you tell us in your own words how to become white?

Read the articles written by whites in the links you would ask for if I posted my opinion.

Thanks for sharing your opinion.

Assuming YOU read the articles then you should be able to summarize them in
your own words

If not then they are pretty useless

 

[buttercup]

It doesn't matter what group does it, many of us never agreed with the hyphenated American thing. It's divisive and unnecessary.

But a better topic would be, why do so many people find their identity in their race...or even their nationality? I mean, people can base their identity on anything they choose... but iyam things like race, gender, sexual orientation or even nationality are not what's most important in the grand scheme of things.

Since you don't do this to whites, don't ask me to do it. The articles speak for themselves, you guys always ask for links and you got them. I stated opinion before I posted the links.

Funny how I never heard it until blacks started saying it. The words define ancestry. Race has been pretty important to whites since this country was founded.

This was your link:

If you didnt bother reading why should we?

And if you did read it but cant summarize in your own words then maybe you need to read it again before offering it to us

I hear it used for other groups too, for example "Mexican Americans", "Native Americans", etc.

BTW, I'm curious to know who popularized the term "African Americans." Like I said, people can identify any way they choose.... but something tells me that it's the powers-that-be (as opposed to the people) who come up with these types of things. Why, because one of their main tactics is divide and conquer. So they're constantly pitting groups against each other, and making Americans into divided groups is one way of doing that. There's a lot more to be said about that, but real life calls at the moment.
