I don't say "white people" or "Black people" because those terms are incorrect. The proper terms are Caucasian and African. I guess I use the term for anyone of European descent. It would be very accurate to only use the term for light skinned people because there are people of Caucasian descent that have dark skin.
You can be a white person and be african, there are lots of white people fromm Africa and a lot of black people who are not from Africa. 'African' does not= black. Also a missconception that people have is that causcasian=white when it doesn't. Caucasian refers to a person who is from the region of Caucasus. I'm 'white' but not from Causcasus so there for I am not causcasian
When you say "white people", who are you referring to

I know this. I guess you can say that I wasn't able to properly collect my thoughts when I wrote that comment.
*Inaccurate.
Neither of those are actually correct.
