Very few white males would trade in their ethinicity for another ethinicity.
It is what it is.
We could get into a big long discussion defining ethnicity, but that would only detract from the above reality.

Thinking the white man is a persecuted minority analogous to blacks, gays, Muslims, or any other actual minority is a delusional, laughable proposition. Unfortunately, it seems to be gaining ground among certain political bases, and will only serve to widen the gulf in already strained race relations.
P.S. I wish people would learn how to quote correctly. It's making this thread exceedingly difficult to read.

I am a small minority in the Caribbean and can state without hesitation that my colour carries currency, everywhere and everyday.
So, either way it works beneficially for this group. Countries like Trinidad have a 1 percent white minority (give or take) and it's almost automatically landing into upper middle class- just by virtue of Network.
I rarely complain. Its' a helluva a club and the membership has no fees.

"L'art de la statistique est de tirer des conclusions erronèes a partir de chiffres exacts." Napoléon Bonaparte.
"Je crois que beaucoup de gens sont dans cet état d’esprit: au fond, ils ne sentent pas concernés par l’Histoire. Mais pourtant, de temps à autre, l’Histoire pose sa main sur eux." Michel Houellebecq.
I sometimes think of my ancestors sitting on the wide verandhah in the cool of the evening gazing over the sweeping Caribbean cane fields The fields are a fading green, but they produce Gold. Succulent Gold.
Perhaps they were with other members of the Plantocracy discussing matters of merchant trade and some idle gossip. The wine is flowing, newly imported from France with tidy profits from the sweet juice that Europe and America enjoyed.
Happy Friday!
