    No, I don't get that you don't understand what Ethnicity is.

    By definition, the fact or state of belonging to a social group that has a common national or cultural tradition.

    Broner
    National Tradition - American (he lives in America)
    Cultural Tradition - American (Not many African rituals I would assume)
    Social Group - Americans (Do you think he is hanging out with Africans or Americans?)

    Not one thing there is African. Some of his ancestry roots are from Africa (probably mixed in there too), but that is it.

    What cultural tradition from Africa do you think Broner practices?

    Who do you think he hangs out with (Social Group), Americans or Africans?

    I can tell you now with very high probability, he is probably practicing about 10 American cultural and social norms and hanging out with Americans right now.

    This really isn't disputable.
    I’ll just say this...

    If Pac and Broner ever fill out a Census Application, you better believe Broner would check the “African American” Box and Pac would check the “Asian” box.

    Anyway. Good discussion about this stuff. People rarely have conversations on here anymore without going into insult mode.

      Yeah he does but I get that. The same way Floyd pimped the “rich hood” persona mcgregor is pimpim the “crazy white boy” persona. As distasteful as some find these things they have been proven to work. I wonder what the next iteration will be?

        I wouldn't use a government form to determine the answer to this question as it has it's flaws.

        But to your point, the question on the census is Ethnic "Origin", not current Ethnicity. As current ethnicity is understood to be American.

        The US census has a lot of issues. More complex questions on the census would clarify that when they are asking about race are they asking about color, and that when they are asking about ethnicity are they asking about national origins, familial or ancestral origins etc.

        You are right, if you are saying Broner has an Ethnic Origin from Africa, but his current ethnic group, is American. A person isn't forever bound to what his great grandfathers ethnic background was before.

        Meaning, I might have ethnic ancestry going back to Germany for 100 years, and then to Japan before that. At some point, the ethnicity changes (my social traditions, groups and culture), but not the ethnic origin.

        So like this...

        Broner
        Race - Black
        Current Ethnicity - American
        Ethnic Origin - No Idea (Somewhere in Africa I assume)

        Pac
        Race - Asian
        Current Ethnicity - Filipino
        Ethnic Origin - No Idea

                  I don’t take fighters words seriously anymore. Pre-fight talk is trash.

                    Egot is filipino slang for black people, it isn't derogatory, or would you rather me use the proper tagalog word for it which is negro, which in America is considered racist?

                      You know it has negative connotations. The real term is Igorot. I know what you were doing.
