| precisely my question. that makes Charlize a white African American. see how it gets confusing. I suppose they all make sure they say South... as in ''I'm South African/American. Personally, I've always just figured you are where you are or want to be, I don't understand all the combos. It's okay if that is what they prefer, to each his own. For some reason I never tell people I'm Amerasian, just American. Only time I think about it is when I fill out the little boxes on applications that ask about race. My DH is 100% German, he never says he's German/American, just American. Ah well... was just curious.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Race and ethnicity in the United States Census, as defined by the United States Census Bureau and the Federal Office of Management and Budget (OMB), are self-identification data items in which residents choose the race or races with which they most closely identify, and indicate whether or not they are of Hispanic or Latino origin (ethnicity)

| I grew up with a German name few could pronounce and even fewer could spell correctly. My name comes from German ancestors, but I consider myself American. There are days however, that I am convinced we are 100% Redneck.

| When I was about 9 years old there was a girl in my class who was from Cape Town, South Africa. She was white, and referred to herself as an Afrikaaner. Think it is something to do with the Dutch settlers there.
