Reblogged from DaddyBear's Den:
- I agree with Teddy Roosevelt - I hate the trend to being hyphenated Americans. I'm not a Norwegian-American, or Irish-American, or German-American. I'm not even a European-American. I'm an American, who happens to be of Northern European descent. I don't think of some of my friends and colleagues as being African-American. They are Americans, most of whom have ancestors who had something absolutely horrific done to them.
Thanks!
