The Americans at heart are a pure and noble people; things to them are in black and white. It's either 'rawk' or it's not. We Brits putter around in the grey area.

Anglo Saxons: To blame for everything.

When I'm in England, I know I'm a visitor, but being a white man in England with ancestry that's German and Italian, I have a history with the Romans and the Saxons. I feel some connection and ancestry here, as weird as that sounds.

I am the daughter of a Chicana and anglo. I think most days I am an embarrassment to both groups. I sometimes hate the white in me so viciously that I long to forget the commitment my skin has imposed upon my life.

It's funny that all these goths paint their faces with such white make-up and that is the actual colour of my skin, I am that pale!

I am certainly not racist; I even like the British.

Or a White Englishman would rather smash a White Frenchman than a Jew! Crazy!

Americans have their issues with skin colour, even within the black community, with light and dark skin; it's crazy - but no one's oblivious to it.

I don't mind being black. I'm black out loud. It's more than the people that they are, it's the condition that they represent.

I don't think it's different to be a black girl in England than it is to be a black girl from America. We all collectively share in a pain of displacement and not feeling like we quite belong in places.
