America's 4 races: Blacks, Bad Whites, Good Whites, and misc.

From my new column in Taki's Magazine:

Third, the example of George Zimmerman—a white, black, and Amerindian son of a Peruvian immigrant, what Latin Americans call a pardo—shows once again that, no matter what the Census Bureau’s demographic categories say and no matter how many sermons we hear about how immigration and interracial marriage are propelling us toward a post-racial utopia, in the 21st-century American media mythos there are really only four kinds of people: 

• Blacks
• Bad Whites
• Good Whites
• misc.

Read the whole thing there.

Of course, I'm lifting this from the 1992 Simpsons episode written by George Meyer:

Ned: "Homer, God didn't set your house on fire." 

Rev. Lovejoy: "No, but He was working in the hearts of your friends and neighbors when they came to your aid, be they Christian, Jew, or... miscellaneous." 

Apu: "Hindu! There are 700 million of us." 

Rev. Lovejoy: "Aww, that's super."
