Are you anti-white? No. But here's something that white supremacists need to remember. Well, a few things, actually.

One of the most notorious and murderous white supremacists, who believed that people from his adopted country who had blonde hair, blue eyes and measured at least six feet tall, had dark brown or black hair, a receding hairline, very dark brown eyes and was diminutive in stature.

That same white supremacist co-opted a Sanskrit symbol of peace reaching out to the world, the swastika, and turned it side on, showing Nazism reaching out to the world.

Europe, as a continent, was always linguistically diverse, and modern English is a combination of Norman French, Germanic, Greek, Latin, Italian (Integral, is one example, taken from integrale. in Italian) and Arabic. England and many other countries (Germany is different with a horizontal line through the descending line of a 7) use the Hindu-Arabic numeric system; Roman is only used sometimes for year dates, (eg. MMIX, for 2009) and on some older style watches.

And let's not forget, Elvis Presley had a Cherokee Indian great-great-grandparent and when his first song was performed, people were ringing in to see if he was Black or White.

Many of us, if we examined our ancestry, would find our roots are more diverse than previously thought. I was amazed to discover that my great-great-grandfather was West Indian and a great-great-grandmother (not his wife) was dark Irish (she had black hair, brown eyes and darkish skin).
