Why is this segregated?
My parents will always specify if the person they're referring to or telling a story about is black. So to help them see how pointless it is I will always specify when someone is white.
They never get it and they'll always pause the conversation "what does him being white have to do with anything? You said he was driving a Benz, that's normal for white people."
Reading this after the thread from that german kid wondering why Americans keep using racial qualifiers like white, black, etc really brings the point home.
