    It would take black Americans 228 years to have as much wealth as white Americans have today. http://nyer.cm/fzXatVD pic.twitter.com/jU3H6FNcLO

        Makes sense, especially when we consider that black Americans are citizens (on paper) since just 1960s.http://nyer.cm/fzXatVD

        No sé qué decirte, me parece mucho más grave la desigualdad racial que tener un gentilicio genérico

        Ambas cosas están relacionadas. Es reflejo d su mentalidad imperialista. Se creen superiores al resto d americanos.

        Más bien mentalidad práctica: tras la independencia en 1783 el mundo empezó a llamarles americanos y ellos se adaptaron

        No. El lenguaje evoluciona pero los nombres no. Tú ves que los gentlicios de nada vayan cambiando de un año para otro?

        Y qué? Si el nombre (que le pusimos los europeos, recuerda) les vale a ellos, por qué iban a molestarse en cambiarlo?

        Isn't 68% of the NFL players black? They aren't exactly living in poverty.
