"I'm not an Anglo, I'm German-Irish"

It's ironic that non-Anglo-Saxon Caucasians, who were discriminated against when I was a kid, are now lumped in with them as Anglos by the new batch of outsiders. And so it goes with each new batch.

Actually, that makes you a "real" part "Anglo."

Angles (German: Angeln, Old English: Englas, Latin: singular Anglus, plural Anglii) were Germanic people, from Angeln in Schleswig, who settled in East Anglia, Mercia and Northumbria in the 5th century. Southern and eastern Britain was later called Engla-lond (in Old English, "Land of the Angles"), thus England.
