But don´t worry smeagol

We born in American Continent, but we aren´t americans
Now, we aren´t white
If we aren´t white, the only whites are the blondes like Beno or Rasho
And Steve Nash isn´t White, and nor Roger Federer and the others

This has nothing to do with the Argie mafia or the Church of Manu, it has to do with general knowledge. If you don't understand that Manu and Oberto are white, then you need to hit the books.

I was making a joke - I think the whole discussion of race is ridiculous. The color of one's skin doesn't dictate whether they'll be good at basketball, or anything else for that matter.

Rodney White would be a decent and cheap addition to the bench, I completely agree.

Why would you not classify them as white, which is what they obviously are?

They are both Argentines of Italian decent (their fathers, grandfathers or most probably great grandfathers were born in Italy).

My wife was born in Argentina but her four grandparents were born in Britain. She is as white as it gets. But according to you, she does not qualify as white.

The funny thing is we had a multi-page thread on this subject not so long ago :depressed

[Mixability]

the thread starter, i believe, is basically trying to define an all-white team, which I believe Manu wouldn't "qualify" by most peoples definitions. Do you seriously think Manu describes himself as "white" and not Argentinian? I think that Americans use the white term to loosely describe someone who isn't Mexican, Black, Asian, Native American, or any other ethnicity. Overseas, they are described basically by nationality, for example Russian, Italian, etc. Am I wrong? If so, correct me before you attack me.

I think this happened last year very few times. But I remember watching some games and thinking put in all the non-black playas!! It could have happened.

[ALVAREZ6]

Danyo, just listen to Smeagol on this one.


Where are most Argentines' ancestors from? Europe.

Where are most of any "american" white person's ancestors from? Europe.

[ALVAREZ6]

Do you seriously think Manu describes himself as "white" and not Argentinian?
Argentinian explains WHERE he is from. It's his nationality, not race.


I think that Americans use the white term to loosely describe someone who isn't Mexican, Black, Asian, Native American, or any other ethnicity.
Manu is none of those.



The bottom line is, all of Manu's and Fabri's ancestors are from Europe, and they had white colored skin.



What's your deffinition of white?

[Mixability]

Why would you not classify them as white, which is what they obviously are?

Obviously? Hmm, then I wonder why there's so much arguing going on....
Let me simplify (dumb it down) for you. I would rather not call someone just white, I would rather call them Argentinian or Russian or Italian, get it?



My wife was born in Argentina but her four grandparents were born in Britain. She is as white as it gets. But according to you, she does not qualify as white.


I wouldn't want to just "throw her in the white pool", I'd rather show her the respect to her heritage and call her either British or Argentinian, whichever she prefers...

so be it, but i for one would prefer to be called Italian, or Russian, or something more specific. But to each his own.

[Kori Ellis]

People really need to get over this subject.

The original starter of thread wasn't trying to start a race war. He was just saying - hey look - the Spurs could have five guys with white skin on the floor on the same time this season -- which is unusual in the NBA. So stop getting into a whole melodramatic, semi-political, race relations discussion.

It was just a comment. It would be like me starting a thread saying -- Wow, the Spurs have five guys with green eyes that could play at the same time this year (if that were true). Or saying -- Hey look, the Celtics have five redheads.

It's just a category of a physical attribute - white skin. Get over it.

[Kori Ellis]

And to answer the original question in this thread, I think the Jazz have had five guys on the floor with white skin at the same time pretty often over the years.

[samikeyp]

It would give me a chance to bring back the "white boy brigade" cheer from the early 90's! In those rare times when Zarko, Brick and Uwe Blab were on the floor...Uwe...talk about your human victory cigar! :)

[exstatic]

colorwise? eh, because I wouldn't classify Manu or Fabri white racewise.

Not sure about Oberto, but Manu is of Italian stock, even though he lives in an Hispanic country. I've always considered Italians "white".

Obviously? Hmm, then I wonder why there's so much arguing going on....
There is so much arguing because the only one supporting your side of the argument is yourself. If you just say, "I made a mistake, Manu and Fabri are white" then the argument is over.


Let me simplify (dumb it down) for you.
Dumb it up, dumb it down, do whatever you want. Your argument is still flawed.


I would rather not call someone just white, I would rather call them Argentinian or Russian or Italian, get it?
And what the fuck has this to do with the "Manu is not white" statement you posted earlier?

Do you understand the differnece between race and nationality?

A guy from Russia is a Russian but he can also be white. Same thing is true for a guy from Argentina (Manu's case), Perú, Chile, Mexico, etc. You can even be from the Congo, Kenya or Uganda and still be white.



I wouldn't want to just "throw her in the white pool", I'd rather show her the respect to her heritage and call her either British or Argentinian, whichever she prefers...
Now I will dumb it down for you: Would you say Robert de Niro, Tony Danza, Al Pacino (Huuaa!), Rudolph Guiliani, Joe Montana, Mario Andretti, Jennifer Capriati, Sofia Loren, Marisa Tomei, Fracis Ford Coppola, Joe Pesci, Henry Mancini, Lou Costello, Dan Marino, Leonardo Di Caprio, Sly Stallone, Paul and Mia Sorvino, Lou Ferrigno (the Incredible Hulk), John Travolta, Alyssa Milano (mega babe!), the Fondas, Lee Iacocca, Vinnie Testaverde, Jay Leno, Liza Minnelli, Martin Scorsese and Frank Sinatra are all what race? . . . white?

BINGO! Same logic applies to Manu and Oberto. Italians migrating to the US and having kids produced the people in my list above. Italians migrating to Argentina and procreating produced Manu, Oberto and millions of other WHITE Argentines descendants from Italians.


Truce?
Sure.

Don't worry Danyo, I give up too. You have an opinion, I have come up with many arguments to prove you wrong, but you are way to stubborn to admit your mistake.

I guess my last point would be: Manu's skin is fucking white. Oberto skin is also f-u-c-k-i-n-g- w-h-i-t-e (there I have dumb it down again, just so you can get it). That's why they are white. Anybody with half a brain can see it.

But if it makes you feel better, call them yellow, or red.

What mistake? How can I argue against what I think? Didn't I say that I wouldn't call him white? I never said he isn't white, I never said that he shouldn't be classified as white, I said that I wouldn't classify him as white, in my mind, get it now? I'm not blind, I know he's white based on color. He can also be mistaken for hispanic, latino, etc. Agree on that?

This is just a difference of opinion. Just like I can say Chevy is better than Ford and you can say otherwise, its just preference. I hope you understand now, cause I'm getting tired of you trying to convince me to view Manu as an everyday, average white guy.

Manu is Latino and he is white. Can you get that through your thick skull?

No.

Probably back in the 1960's, or maybe even late 1950s.

[MI21]

I agree with Spurminator, Rodney White would be a good addition. For some extra beef I think the Spurs should go after Jahidi White too :)

As for the actual question, I think Kori was pretty close, but I'll go for the 2001 Sacramento Kings as being the most likely to have had this happen.

In 2003 the Utah Jazz had -- John Stockton, Andrei Kirelenko, Greg Ostertag, Matt Harpring, Scott Padgett, it's possible those 5 could of been on court at the same time.

In 2004 they had -- Andrei Kirlenko, Matt Harpring, Curtis Borchadt. Ben Handlogten, Gordan Giricek, Aleksander Pavlovic, Greg Ostertag and Tom Gugliotta. Once again, possible that a combo of 5 of those players saw the court at the same time.

In 2001 the Sacramento Kings had -- Peja Stojakovic, Jason Williams, Vlade Divac, Jon Barry, Scott Pollard, Hedo Turkoglu. Pretty likely a combo of those 6 saw the court at the same time at some point.

I know you're not talking to me, but I have to tell you something really funny. My little brother went to Georgetown High School (Texas).

They put a statue of Jon Voigt up near the stadium as part of the film because it was a statue of the "coach" and it's still there. :lol They just left it there and nobody wanted to take it down.

And while he was in town filming that movie, Jon Voigt stopped by Book People in Austin, where my husband worked at the time. He asked my husband for a book and my husband's a chatty guy, so they started talking about good books. Voigt asked if Jim had ever read Autobiography of a Yogi and Jim said no and Voigt said, Well you should, and Jim gave him his usual, well, I'm a poor college student, so I never buy new books. So Jon Voigt bought the book for him. Of course Jim had NO clue who the guy was until he left and one of his coworkers was like, "Dude, did Jon Voigt just buy you a book?" :lol

If not check Only the National team:

PG: Pepe Sanchez - Spain

Delfino: Probaly Italy or Spain
Walter Herrmann: Prabably from Germany
Scola: Spain
Kammerich: Probably from Germany

Others:

In fact when they let Argentina to go to play in Europe, the majority has double nationality or transacts the European citizenship and play like Europeans

Not really

When i say from a different country i say the grandparents at the most

If your grandfather is from Italy or Spain, only with citizenchip, you can transact the nationality, but not if the citizen is your great-grandfather, and Only if you have the Last Name of him, if he´s your mother dad, you can´t

then all our female Slovinian bball fans could have them both in a sundae.

Barry is too lively and crazy for his own good.
He's tri-flavored sherbet.

Something about eggplant.

One of the data is the race to which one belongs. For them, practically only there are two races: White and Color

I love those things.

Manu isn't white. He's Argentinian and Argentines are hispanic.I guess a better word would be "caucasian".

http://www.answers.com/topic/caucasian-race-1

beno & rasho are European. manu & frabri are S. American. And Barry is N. American.

Now if we added Chubaca into the mix then he could play power forward and that would be an "intergalactic team" BUT for now YES the Spurs would have an all international team,inter-racial team,for sure an intercontinental team.

For sure a WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM!

All we need next year is to get Yao Ming in a Spur uniform and the Spurs will be known as the G7 of all sports!It could very possibly become the most visable sports team and most powerful team in the WORLD!

[Spurminator]

Look, there are five races in this world: American, Black, Mexican, Chinese, and the recently intorduced "A-rab."

I did not get the memo.

In any case, he descends form Italians, not Hispanics (or Spanish).

IF he speaks Spanish his race is hispanic, and therefore not white."race" buzzard NO! There are alot of mixed races in the Latino community.

There is alot of black mixture in the Carribean islands..Cuba,Rep Dominicana,Brazil. There are alot of indian mixture with European ancestors. In Peru I believe lately there is a heavy influx of Japanese. There president is oriental. In Argentina the majority are old settlers from Italy. Hey even Mexico has an interracial President in Vicente Fox-Quesada.

Its Latino-America. People from Brazil even though they mostly speak Portuguese are Latino's,because their language derives from Latin.

Ginobili is not as "white" as Oberto but he is still considered as such.

Here you go, I'll rephrase the original post of this thread, so that everyone can realize that this wasn't meant to turn into a white thing ...

"Isn't it weird that the Spurs have so many players that aren't Black that they can put a legitimate all non-Black lineup on the floor? When was the last time another team did that?"

There you go -- now it's a Black thing.

In Italy and Spain exist the Law of Nationality "Jure Sanguinis"

The Italian legislation, it grants in the matter of nationality right, the possibility of obtaining the double citizenship, to any person whom it has although it is, a minimum of ITALIAN blood

Esteem which they entered ARGENTINA, a total, of but of 1.1 million of Italian.

Today, ARGENTINA, is inhabited by almost 37 million people, of this total, practically 25 million inhabitants, are potentially, Italian, in the terms that the legislation in the matter such question regulates, the projections for year 2050, give 50 million inhabitants to ARGENTINA, that is 36 million of Italian "Jure sanguinis".

El problema de la Nacionalidad entre Italia y España - Por Marco Antonio - Publicada el 18-07-05


ANNO DOMINI 2050,¿QUO VADIS HISPANIA?



El PORQUÉ, DE ESTA PREGUNTA.


De seguir existiendo una absoluta asimetría, en el concepto de los derechos de nacionalidad entre ITALIA y ESPAÑA, nos encontraremos, que por imperio de la UNION EUROPEA, en un futuro no muy lejano ESPAÑA será repoblada en gran parte, por italianos.


El fenómeno en cuestión tiene una explicación muy sencilla:

Para el año 2050, ESPAÑA, será (si las proyecciones estadísticas no mienten), el país mas viejo de LA EUROPA COMUNITARIA, para esos años, por cada diez españoles en edad productiva, existirán, nueve españoles acogidos a algún sistema de retiro o jubilación.


Hoy ESPAÑA, con casi 39,2 millones de habitantes, tiene una tasa de crecimiento de población ubicada en 1.26 niños por mujer.

Estos valores tan bajos de tasas de natalidad, son producto de varios factores, y hará que para el año 2050, el 35,6% de su población tenga mas de 65 años, por ello, se espera una perdida neta de población nativa.

Así mismo, en esos años, habrá, una menor proporción de ciudadanos en edad de trabajar, en el orden de un 52,9% del total de la población.


Muy lejos de ESPAÑA, existe un país llamado ARGENTINA, este país ha recibido un gran flujo de inmigrantes, en una primera gran oleada, entre los años que van desde 1870 a 1910, (inmigración alentada desde el propio estado argentino, cuyos funcionarios de esos años, seguían la premisa que expresaba, “gobernar es poblar”).

En un censo del año 1910 en la republica ARGENTINA, se registraba que un 25 % de los habitantes provenían del extranjero, la mayoría de ellos, de ITALIA y ESPAÑA.-

Fueron atraídos por promotores, que incitaban a los pobladores EUROPEOS, a venir a estas lejanas tierras, donde una vez llegados, se le indicaba un destino en el territorio, el estado nacional argentino, les donaba tierras, elementos de labranza y semillas, mas una ayuda alimentaría para los primeros meses.

En aquellos años, los emigrantes españoles, se dedicaron esencialmente a tareas relacionadas a las ciudades, donde, los problemas para subsistir, eran diversos, sea por alimentos, sea por alojamiento, esto tendía a que los españoles, tuvieran familias con pocos hijos, mientras que los italianos, optaban, por su formación, a dedicarse a las tareas rurales, donde de hecho por el entorno y el tipo de tarea a realizar, eran muy comunes, las familias numerosas.

En una segunda gran oleada llegaron como inmigrantes económicos y refugiados, entre otros, ciudadanos españoles e italianos, luego de las guerras mundiales y la guerra civil española.


La legislación italiana, otorga en materia de derecho de nacionalidad, la posibilidad de obtener la doble ciudadanía, a cualquier persona que tenga aunque sea , un mínimo de sangre ITALIANA, “jure sanguinis” ,(sin limites de generaciones y permite además tramitar la ciudadanía a, los ancestros ya fallecidos, pero sin salto de generaciones),siempre que consiga demostrar el vinculo familiar .

Se estima que ingresaron a ARGENTINA, un total, de mas de 1,1 millones de italianos.

Este criterio (jure sanguinis ), también es aplicable, a las personas nacidas, y ya residentes en los territorios que pertenecían al IMPERIO AUSTRO -HUNGARO (Trentino-Alto Adige/Sudtirolo/Friuli Venezia Giulia), luego recuperados por ITALIA.


Hoy , la ARGENTINA, está habitada por casi 37 millones de personas, de este total, prácticamente 25 millones de habitantes, son potencialmente, italianos, en los términos que la legislación en la materia regula tal cuestión, las proyecciones para el año 2050,dan 50 millones de habitantes a la ARGENTINA, o sea 36 millones de italianos “ jure sanguinis”.


Es decir que en estos años, ITALIA, con una población estimada en 57 millones de habitantes, tiene en la ARGENTINA, como, italianos “ jure sanguinis, el equivalente al 43,86 %, de la población de los italianos nativos y que habitan ITALIA.-


La mayor parte de los ciudadanos italo-argentinos, que migran a EUROPA, se establecen en ESPAÑA motivados por las facilidades comunitarias y el idioma, (a este fenómeno, alguna especialista, dio en llamarlo, LA ITALIANIDAD VACIA).-

Nos encontramos pues, que, en la actualidad, ESPAÑA, niega a la descendencia de su propia sangre, lo que otorga a sus hijos por adopción (VIA COMUNIDAD EUROPEA).


No soy yo un especialista en derecho constitucional, ni nada que se le parezca, es más no soy un leído en cuestiones de derecho, pero creo tener desarrollado, el sentido común.-

Es por ello, que no me atrevo a atacar la constitucionalidad, de determinados artículos, de determinada ley, pero si me atrevo a decir, NO TIENE SENTIDO QUE:


El bisnieto de un inmigrante ESPAÑOL,(AUNQUE SEA POR LINEA PATERNA) no pueda obtener la CIUDADANIA ESPAÑOLA, pero, “si tiene la suerte” de poseer un TATARABUELO ITALIANO ,aún por LINEA MATERNA, y el interesado, nació luego del año 1948 (constitución de ITALIA), con toda seguridad, podrá ser ITALIANO de pleno derecho, y por ende, tendrá pasaporte COMUNITARIO, lo cual le permitirá residir, trabajar, votar y ser candidato en los ayuntamientos, todo esto en ESPAÑA.


Creo que puedo plantear, estas reflexiones, desde la autoridad moral que creo tener, para abordar el asunto de la ciudadanía, por cuanto soy español de origen, al igual que mis dos hijas, y no por ello fuimos a ESPAÑA a buscar trabajo, o un mejor pasar.

La ciudadanía ESPAÑOLA, es para nosotros, y otros muchos como nosotros, una cuestión de CARIÑO POR NUESTRAS RAICES, cariño este, que va mucho mas allá, de las cuestiones económicas coyunturales.


Todo lo antes expresado, NO TIENE LA INTENCIÓN DE SER UN PANFLETO ANTI- ITALIANO, muy por el contrario, pretende despertar en los poderes constituidos, los medios de comunicación masivos, y en los habitantes de ESPAÑA, vista desde una perspectiva distinta, la imperiosa necesidad, de modificar, los actuales criterios en materia de ciudadanía, o en su defecto, asumir responsablemente, sus consecuencias no queridas.

SE DEBE, IMITAR A ITALIA, QUIEN CUIDA DE SU DESENDENCIA, o tener los brazos muy abiertos, para recibir, en un futuro no muy lejano, a un elevado porcentaje de los millones de italo-argentinos, que irán a cubrir las necesidades de mano de obra calificada y profesionales universitarios, que se requerirán, para acompañar el crecimiento del P.B.I., o producto bruto interno de ESPAÑA.-

Insisto en el punto, los responsables en la materia, deberán asumir que ESPAÑA,(como lo indico mas arriba en esta nota), irá cubriendo sus necesidades de población joven, con italianos “ jure sanguinis , que hablarán ESPAÑOL, pero que no tendrán con ESPAÑA, NADA MAS QUE UN VINCULO ECONOMICO, con lo que ello significará, en términos de perdida de las raíces culturales, de toda ESPAÑA.



Desde ya quedo a sus gratas ordenes.-


Atentamente:


Marco Antonio Arrieta y Cardona
Ciudadano ESPAÑOL de origen

In Peru I believe lately there is a heavy influx of Japanese. There president is oriental.
Dude, that guy is long gone. His name is Alberto Fujimori and he had to leave the presidency after his strong man was videotapped paying bribes to a congressman.

[Kori Ellis]

they had a spanish speaking oriental

Hey, don't use the word "oriental". Oriental is for objects .. like an oriental vase. Use the word "Asian" for people.

Thanks.

:lmao

[ALVAREZ6]

something like that.....so do yall really have the statue of Sylvester Stallone up on the steps of the museum?
No, but we do have a statue of Slyvester Stallone outside the Wachovia Spectrum which is right next to the Wachovia Center. Near it is a statue of Dr. J.

[Mixability]

Hey, don't use the word "oriental". Oriental is for objects .. like an oriental vase. Use the word "Asian" for people.

damn, Kori, beat me to it!

[Dre_7]

Wow! You guys are still arguing about the whole "white" thing? Is it really that important?? :wtf

There wasnt even this much arguing when GiG used racial slurs on this site.

Who cares what "color" Manu is. He can ball!! Thats all that matters!!!! Who cares about race?? JEEPERS!!!!!!

No it doesn't really matter. But it's unusual and somewhat noteworthy or interesting to some, I suppose.

[ObiwanGinobili]

I'd say they are blacspanic or hispack... but thats way too middle of the road friendly for this thread so I'm gonna jump off a bridge here and say : BLACKISH

[Mixability]

Danyo, just listen to Smeagol on this one.


Where are most Argentines' ancestors from? Europe.

Where are most of any "american" white person's ancestors from? Europe.

wow, based on this theory, I'm white. Now when talking about getting held back by "the Man", I'm talking about myself! :drunk

[whottt]

He also speaks English


That means he's half white and half hispanic.






Bowen speaks spanish.

Half black, half hispanic.


My wife, whom I love very much and I have already told her story in an earlier post, spoke English before she spoke Spanish. But she is 100% Argentine. Is she Hispanic or White?

As noted by Obiwanginobili...


If she started out white and then converted to hispanism...she's a half breed. A whispanic if you will....like Manu...only since he was a hispanic first he's a hispwhite...essentially the same thing...only different.

But if you have one drop of the hispanic language in you you are still a hispanic and therefore cannot be of the white race.

And don't even ask me what Dikembe Mutombo is with his 7 languages...he's beyond classification.

[ALVAREZ6]

And don't even ask me what Dikembe Mutombo is with his 7 languages...he's beyond classification.
Speaking of Mutombo, his FULL name is Dikembe Mutombo Mpolondo Mukamba Jean Jacque Wamutombo .

I always thought it was kind of cool that the 80's Celtics had two or three good white players and a black coach.

There are some good "white" players out there.......to name a few

Wally Sczerbiak

Speaking of Mutombo, his FULL name is Dikembe Mutombo Mpolondo Mukamba Jean Jacque Wamutombo .


How do you get that name?


I have no idea.. i'm thinking you get it when your parents owe alot of people alot of major favors and naming your kid after them is a way to get the monkey off your back.........
:lol

[ObiwanGinobili]

In the 90´s Dennis Roddman said:

"The Blacks are better than the whites because we know then we can kick a white ass"



Rodman has said many many things into a microphone and/or TV camera.. but they all amount to the same thing:

"Hey! look at me !! LOOK AT ME!!! See me??!!! Look! LOOK AT ME!!! "

[Mixability]

And don't even ask me what Dikembe Mutombo is with his 7 languages...he's beyond classification.

doubt it, but if he has any drop of european blood in his family, he's white..... according to smeagol :rolleyes :lol

wow, i can call myself white now! does that mean i lose my rhythm? :lol

now we're part of the majority, which was actually the minority, which...... aw nevermind :lol

doubt it, but if he has any drop of european blood in his family, he's white..... according to smeagol :rolleyes :lol
Danyo either you are an idiot, or the way people are categorized here in the US is stupid. Its probably both 'cause I have been asked that question in some idiotic questionnaires and don't really know if I'm giving the correct answer. I always say white because the hispanic/latino option is so vague.

If the majority thinks Manu is not white, then I give up and will not comment again on these Manu is/is not white threads that pop up every month or so (but I will have to restrain myself when idiot like danyo come along).

Damn, you're way too uptight, geez, can't take a joke? Yeah the hispanic/latino option is pretty vague, but its better than having to choose "other". As for the "idiot" remark, i won't even bother stooping down to your level, it just shows your maturity level. Kinda like losing an argument and then saying, "well my Dad can beat your Dad up!" :rollin

[waly.mg]

I believe that it is or clear what I meant at the beginning of the Thread
The best players of the world are black, Steve Nash was the first white MVP from Larry Bird, although for my he is not the best player of the league, the best is between Shaq, Then Duncan and Garnett
In a sport dominated by the blacks, to have possible formacion white or that it is not black, it is not very frequent

[batman2883]

Thats not true cause look at rookie of the year awards too.....Wasnt there a few in the last couple of years that were white??? Like that one guy that got it over Manu Ginobili was that one white guy from the Grizzlies....whats his face...um....Mike Miller there you go

[hendrix]

:lol
Okay, I'll start. Are people from the Dominican Republic black or hispanic? :lol

They may be both (you know that already, i've seen your other posts on the subject).
They may be white and hispanic too. Always hispanic tho, since thats an hispano-american country.

You are right, I've posted about it before. timvp is over Dominican descent. I just find it interesting that some people consider it an either/or thing when it comes to the distinction between Black/Hispanic/White/Whatever.

[smeagol]

You are right, I've posted about it before. timvp is over Dominican descent. I just find it interesting that some people consider it an either/or thing when it comes to the distinction between Black/Hispanic/White/Whatever.
I agree with Kori and Hendrix. You can be white and Latino/Hispanic. But what is idiotic is to say a guy is not white because he was born in Argentina, Chile, Venezuela or any other Latin American country.

[hendrix]

You are right, I've posted about it before. timvp is over Dominican descent. I just find it interesting that some people consider it an either/or thing when it comes to the distinction between Black/Hispanic/White/Whatever.

Well, let me say something.
I particularly find very funny when people "exclude" some others from an ethnic or racial or whatever category.
Lets take the "White race" example. Say Ginobili is not enough white to "qualify" in that category.
First of all, I (personally) jump off my seat when read stuff like that, NOT because it bothers me in a "pride" (or whatever you call it) sense, but because one can see the segregational logic behind it. I personally couldnt care less is someone says to me "you aren't white, you're tanned" (I'll say: "thanks... it's cool to play outdoor sports on a nice weather and not worry to get red like an apple").
Back to the example.
* What degree of white/pink qualifies as to be called "white" by them?
* What about interracial relationships that has been going on for centuries? Don't they see there are millions of shades of pink/white/orange/etc....? Do they still use 16-color computers? Do they still use Commodore64s? Are they so stupid?
* Don't they know that the ongoing mix of races and/or ethnicities is going to keep its pace?
* Don't they know that the mixing of genes is always better?

Still... definitions had already been made, and Manu would qualify as a "Mediterranean white". It means: "Not so palid like a finnish." :)

[MiNuS]

Whats interesting about the "white" topic is that for example if we think about it in "Futbol" terms we never see an all "white" Brazilian team. Or in Mexico we always discuss about never being able to reach that next level due to physical advantage the Brazilian's have and to an extent the Argentinians. I know I'm stepping into differrent waters now. But its true.

I could have been wrong about US goverment policies (I thought "hispanic" was used as a race by the US census bureau). I was wrong, but the "fix" was pretty recent anyways).
You are still taking hispanic for a "color of skin" (let's assume this isn't a race issue).

I dont find "hispanic" in the color palette... what is its hex code?
Are all whites like #FFFFFF ???

[ObiwanGinobili]

I worked for the census and if you claim to be hispanic they then subcatagorize you into 2 groups: white of hispanic decent or black of hispanic decent.

just to clear the waters on that point.

For all argies (and south american people), I would like to clarify something. I know that you are taught that America is one big continent from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego, but this view is NOT homogeneous all over the planet. In fact, in most places like Europe, US, and most parts of Asia, it is taught that South America is a different continent.

Please understand that your view is not the majority in the planet.

http://geography.about.com/library/misc/blcont.htm Nope, it is certainly not a universally-taught fact.

From Wikipedia:
Geographic continents

"Because geography is defined by local convention, there are several conceptions as to which landmasses qualify as continents. There are names for six, but America is often divided, and Europe is often united with Asia. Ignoring cases where Antarctica is omitted, there are half a dozen lists. With the continents ordered by size, they are:



7 continents: Asia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asia), Africa (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa), North America (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_America), South America (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_America), Antarctica (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antarctica), Europe (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europe), and Australia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia).
6 continents: Asia, America (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Americas), Africa, Antarctica, Europe, and Australia.
6 continents: Eurasia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurasia), Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, and Australia.
5 continents: Eurasia, America, Africa, Antarctica, and Australia.
5 continents: Laurasia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laurasia), Africa, South America, Antarctica, and Australia.
4 continents: Afrasia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa-Eurasia), America, Antarctica, and Australia.
The 7-continent model is usually taught in Western Europe (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Europe), the United States (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States) and Canada (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada), Australia, and much of Asia, i.e. most of the planet. The 6-continent combined-America model is taught in Japan (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan), Iran (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran), and Latin America (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin_America). The 6-continent Eurasia model is preferred by the scientific community, and as such is commonly found in all parts of the world, but is especially used in Russia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russia) and other countries of Eastern Europe (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Europe). Historians may use the 5-continent Laurasian model (Jared Diamond (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jared_Diamond)) or the 4-continent Afrasian model (Andre Gund (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Gunder_Frank)er Frank (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Gunder_Frank))."


So in both Western and Eastern Europe, Russia, US, Canada, Australia and most of Asian countries, North and South America are considered different continents. A combined-America model is taught in Japan, Iran and Latin America.

This is why most Latin-Americans get upset with the term 'American' referring to people from the US. They claim (rightfully so based on what they are taught), that they are also 'Americans' from the same continent. I am just clarifying to them that what they are taught is NOT an homogeneous view (in fact, they are in the minority in the planet).
