What I thought was funny was the American Indian. There were none yet they rate a space and caucasian which was the majority was listed as "other".

I was explaining the term "racist" to my 10 year old the other day. During the conversation, it came up that you sometimes hear of someone being referred to as a prominent African-American [fill in the blank]. I remarked you never hear of someone being referred to, for example, as a prominent caucasian author. I asked her, "do you know any caucasians."

The response, "no."

I was LMAO. Said "do you know what a caucasian is?

Response, "no." More LMAO!

I said, "you, you're a caucasian."

I think the humor escaped her, but wanted her to know the terms.
