And somehow, some of them do, like the Irish and Italians... why is that?
Also "white" is a completely bullshit meaningless label that should not be applied to anyone. Nobody is white. Not the Irish. Not the Swedes. Not the English. Not Iranians. Same with "black," for that matter. Race in homo sapiens is made up nonsense.
On that note, I was really surprised to see that the peak of Cuban immigration was the past decade. People are still coming from Cuba en masse? I assumed most of them would have been refugees in the 60s, 70s, and maybe 80s.
That’s when boat people (including my whole family and extended family, totaling ~50 people) left South Vietnam en masse.
I guess those who arrived through slave trade either weren't people or weren't lawful.
I do agree that it's worded funny though lol
