Subject: RE: BS: Apologies over slave trade?
oh great - so now we are back to the all of weatern Europe is "white" argument. Sure didn't seemd that way when they emigrated to the united states - there werew varying degrees of white then and no doubt had been back on the continent.

I have a friend whose family is Basque. I can tell you that nobody in spain considers them "white". White and black are arbitrary divisions that have no use any more. let's not perpetuate them.
