          why say "woman" if she's white, but distinguish "black woman" if she is black? Why isn't she described as just "woman" either way?

          Race and ethnicity is not real. It was created to identify "others".

          Why do we describe people in terms of colour? 'White' and 'Black' are misnomers when the colour of their skin are hues of brown.

          (1) According to Matthew Frye Jacobsen, ethnicity originated as a category applied to groups with light skin, yet were "non-white".

          (2) Some ethinc groups in US were once considered racial others, but became "ethinc" on their way to becoming "white" (e.g. Irish).

          (3) The fluidity of racial/ethnic terms over time suggests their socially constructedness. Yet they persist for some & not others.

          (4) And this is the paradox: how to affirm mutuality and equality while attending to real social inequality and division over time.
