    I wonder about this, too: if a person is a mixed racial heritage, and one of the those is white, the ‘white’ designation is dropped. To me, this reminds me of how racial classifications were designated during the times of slavery and after, where if a person had one drop of black blood they were considered black. It seems that to ignore one’s white racial heritage when one is multiple is to acquiesce to this racist standard. Maybe ‘African-Caucasian’ would make an interesting ethnic tag.
