| Okay then. Let's say that in the 1700s one African is taken into slavery and his brother is not. Then they had descendants in today's world. Why would the guy whose ancestor was a slave be an African~American and the guy whose ancestor wasn't a slave be an African when they are actually 6th cousins?] 00:12, 1 May 2006 (UTC) | Okay then.

| Could you take a look at the first sentence in this section? It claims that Persians are descendants of some "Aryan tribes" migrating from Central Asia. Sounds like outdated racial theories to me.

- Sorry for leaving it on this page but I just wanted to say I think you are doing a good job with the revision. I may have a few edits and revisions but I will wait until you have finished. I would also include the term Free White which at a time in the US meant the right to own land in America and it didn't refer to the color of skin. I will however refrain from making any edits until you are finished. I do not want to hinder the good work you are doing already. As I can see there are some objections like the dispute that Americans are not white. Which is somewhat true based on the genetic mixing that has taken place. In addition the fact that the Moors have changed genetic lines forever similar to what happend in Italy, Sicily etc... Good work so far however... By the way, I'm buying your fucking book!!! It seems like a must read.--Gnosis 23:27, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
You did a phenomenal job connecting the new history section with other articles. Thank you very much. I am not actively editing White (people) at present. I am too tied up with the skull types article right now, so feel free to edit White (people). I hope that you enjoy the book. -- Frank W Sweet 02:39, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
African American
Okay then. Let's say that in the 1700s one African is taken into slavery and his brother is not. Then they had descendants in today's world. Why would the guy whose ancestor was a slave be an African~American and the guy whose ancestor wasn't a slave be an African when they are actually 6th cousins?1028 00:12, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
Persian people#History
Could you take a look at the first sentence in this section? It claims that Persians are descendants of some "Aryan tribes" migrating from Central Asia. Sounds like outdated racial theories to me. The same source (Britannica) says Persians are of mixed ancentry, but when I try to add this in people remove it. I don't think this is consistent with WP:NPOV. Could you take a look at this and leave some feedback on the talk page? Your help will be appreciated. Thanks, Aucaman 07:49, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
