Yeah, I'm still a little surprised as to how much argument there is about minority cultures and dominant cultures and appropriation.
I think I am going to stop apologizing for bringing up race when I want to talk about it. Obviously, this doesn't include saying something offensive, but I know I very often don't say things like, "Wow, no Asians!"
It'd be interesting if there were a poll to see who thought of Asians as white and who didn't and what the race and ethnic divide was.
