either way it doesnt matter bro, its just a broad category. It goes human, earth, oxidental/oriental, north/south, continent, country, state, city...etc...if you want to be specific to the point of country, then thats fine, if you just want to say someone is a westernern or easterner thats fine too.
and the whole skin color thing. It isnt the fact that since people are brown, or black, or white, its what culture they were raised in. Many peoples CULTURES dont mix, and a skin color tends to dominate the culture. Like there arent too many white dudes chillin in north african ceremonial garb and called themselves Umbabageela-shwan. SO when people say black or white, they are referring to the culture that the skin color is typically attributed to. White is hard, because its a little more spread out than most other skin colors. majority of blacks in africa, tans in asia etc. but white in america, canada, scotland, ireland, germany, england, france etc...all with very different cultures. but yeah. I had a point in there some where. I hope you caan find it
example: hard for a rich white suburbanite to really be able to mesh compatibly with a poor, black, inner city, thug woman. Not that one is a right perspective, or a wrong one, but that they just dont mix for the most part. The girl could be very intelligent and one day might be very successful, but things like attitude towards certain subjects, patterns of speech (vernacular), etc.. would make it hard.
