What a joke. Look at the people that claim that they're black, who do they think their kidding?

Reminds me of some people I've meet that are just as white as me(blue eyed and blond ect) but claim to be "Native American" because they say they're 1/16 Blackfoot or whatever.

got 3 white and 2 of the rest but Hispanic >< I knew that would be the group I'd fail on, when there's mixing I really can't tell half-Hispanic from half anything else.

this reminds me of that can u guess which asian country the guy is from quiz. terrible quiz, basically they got a chinese guy dressed him up in very japanese styled clothes with japanese style facial hair etc. and screw you up. and stuff like that. btw just saying that there ARE visual differences between koreans chinese and japanese, there not definite but many times you can guess correctly

Not only is this test a nice way to illustrate how little most people understand races, but it also illustrates how the average TLer has shit reading comprehension! Well done, PBS!

The problem with a hispanic latino category is the fact that all the other "races" there fit into. Latinos are conglomerate of european native american and african descendents. Also seeing as native americans are the closest group to asians genetically some of them look very similar.

Still I think most of the people on TL would call some filipino people mexican if they saw them walking down the street.


I get called Mexican all the time >.>

On topic, I got 5 right. =(

Its specifically created with really ambiguous looking people so people can fail and feel bad for being racist.

Like someone else said, it really feels like they're intentionally using people of ambiguous ethnicity just to make a point. Plus most of the people had diverse backgrounds, and a few were exceptionally debatable. In particular I'm thinking of the Palestinan guy who identified as white and the Puerto-Rican (Spanish)/Irish/English girl who identified as Hispanic/Latino. Spanish people are white! Spain! Part of Europe! lol..

Anyway, I'd take things like this with a grain of salt.

How can failing at that make you a racist, sorry I don't understand.

From what I know, being a racist, is a person who merely thinks his race is superior to others POINT.
