there you have men's definitions....so are ethiopians caucasians?
i use common sense before i worship men's definitions..
according to this, berbers, arabs, indians, kurds, turks and a quarter of black africans are 'caucasian'...
perhaps you need to study africa just as much if not more than i do...they had to call black africans 'caucasian' to distort ancient nile valley civilization...these blacks (like the ancient egyptians) achieved greatness because they were actually 'caucasian';
also speak to a few ethiopians...
some of them are very surprised to hear that they are 'caucasians'...
for these labelers, one drop of "negro" blood makes you "negro" in america...but one drop of "caucasian" blood makes you "caucasian" in africa...
it is all nonsense
