As the title says talk about your ethncity/race^^
I like to compare myself to chicken soup because I have so many ethnicities in me. When you first see me I look more asian, well that's what all my friends say, but I'm only an eighth Chinese... I'm mostly hispanic from my mom side and white from my dad's side. For the small chunks of meat that make up part of the soup(or in other words the small stuff) I'm italian and if you go back far enough I'm palestinian, I just felt like sharing that...
So what's your ethnicity?

Woohoo! I am black. Well...I'm literally brown, and my ancestors come from Africa! I have no idea which county though.

I'm white, but I am descended from a slave owner and a slave woman who fell in love way back before the civil war (and other drama ensued).

I'm Irish, German, Scottish, and Ukrainian. I had a Jewish grandfather (on my father's side), but I'm a Catholic. The latter may not be ethnicity, but I thought I'd add that for the heck of it.

50% Vietnamese +50% Korean ---------------------- 100% Asian!
Though... it would be cool to be Japanese...

I'm half Chinese and half white. Other people tell me I look asian, but I don't really think I do.

Okay- My Dad is Scottish, English, Irish, German, Austrian, and an eensy weensy bit French. My mom is 100% whole-hearted, Mediterranean GREEK. My mom + my dad = Definition of CULTURE CLASH!
A really cool thing it that my and arwentheelf02's great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather is none other than the famous composer... *drum roll* BACH!
Which is funny because I can't play his pieces worth a crap. ^_^

That's awesome, saturnsoldier! My grandfather (who was previously mentioned) was a major league baseball player, and apparently knew Lou Gehrig. But that doesn't compare to having Bach in your family line.

That's cool! NO ONE in my family is athletic. ^^; But I think more people would know Lou Gehrig than Bach, as all the airheads in my grade would be all, "Bach? Is that a breed of dog or something?"
Grr. I hate my generation, but it's so cool to see all the different places people are from.

I know the feeling. Stll, like you said, it's great to hear what other people's backgrounds are.

I think I have some Irish in me (my last name is Irish), but my family has been in the South so long, we're just Southerners now
