    They and their conversation should be used as the basis for having the "conversation" on Race in the country. They are so honest.

    That man does not look white to me. He has a swirl to him. The couple don't look like they are interracial, that's how much they both look alike in terms of phenotype and melanin.

    Still amazed how in North América the category "White" has acquired such a strong sense of exclusiveness. Even to the extent of considering as non-white people from Mediterranean Europe, or even Ireland. In Europe we would differentiate people as Nordic/Scandinavian, British, Eastern, Central or Southern European/Mediterranean, North African, Etc... For sure a Central/South African person would be considered black. But the closest to the N-American term 'white' (in the sense of Just northern, central, eastern European) that comes to my mind, would be what the Nazis designated as Aryan, which could even exclude people as White as the actor Paul Newman, who was of Jewish descent.
