I am terribly sorry, but I don't want to sound racist or anything in this entry. I don't mean anything offensive!!! Recently, I have been pondering about some things lately. For example, shouldn't we just call white Americans "European-Americans", like what we call blacks (I despise that word! It's so not culturally sensitive) "African Americans" and Asians in the U.S. "Asian Americans"? I've been thinking deeply about the way that the Europeans invaded America long ago, stole the Native American's land when the settlers were welcome to come, started a genocide, killing a TON of poor American Indians (that b****rd Andrew Jackson!), and then Americanized the American Indians in a really cruel and painful way. I believe that the Native Americans should've been considered the real Americans. Now, they are just a minority, less than the population of the Chinese-Americans. I still respect the current white-Americans and their ways, but I did not enjoy learning about America's past.
