White people, what should we identify as in surveys and other forms.

I used to just check White and that was it. Now I will mark other and list my predominant cultural heritage English and Norwegian. Do you think this is a mistake? Should I be broader and say European heritage? Should I just mark the White box?

Yeah, im appalachian, grew up in appalachia, was told to write applachian on my sat's, and college admissions.

Come here to canada, I write "appalachian" next to cultural background for things like my healthcare.

But it means absolutely nothing to these retards. They have a very hard time comprehending how people can believe in different things, quite sad really.

So unless your country even recognizes the group your claiming to identify as, seems pointless in alot of circumstances.

Ive begged for years to get healthcare for the freon poisoning and now the hyper parathyroidism, im a proud person im only gonna beg a few times.

Im done now, and the people here just cant seem to comprehend what the hell im talking about.

Fucking pussies with no backbone in canada. Cant wait to go back home to america.

Im a direct descendant of the wing family that was crucial in things like the quaker movement and underground railroad. I have alot of pride for my lineage, though I have done nothing to prove my own worth.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Quakers

Daniel Wing and his brother Stephen Wing and others resisted an oppressive law in the town of Sandwhich which publicly punished men and women by whipping, for “meetings at private houses, for encouraging others in holding meetings, for entertaining the preachers and for the unworthy speeches”. By 1658, Daniel Wing, with others who acted with him, became active converts and there were 18 families who recorded their names in the documents of the society.

Grindall Wing went by the name of Henry Wing. According to old family stories he left Vermont at age 18, moving to Ohio during the War of 1812. He was engaged with Capt. Reilly in shipping supplies to forts along the Maumee River and in surveying Ohio.

Austin Wing, son of Henry and Elinor (Frazee) Wing was born to live in the most trouble-some time in the history of his native land. When the dark clouds of the sixties [1860's] were jamgomg so low and threatening, he being a true patriotic American, standing for the preservation of the Integrity of the flag of his country and desiring to save his nation from disintegration, he heard the first call of his country and enlisted in Company E21 Ohio Volunteer Infantry in April 1861. He re-enlisted Aug 27, 1862, but this time in Company F 4th Regiment. He served in the campaigns through Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, and Mississippi. At Stone River he was captured by the enemy and confined in Libby prison for 20 days, and after his exchange he fought at Chattanooga, scouted and foraged up the Tennessee River, participated in the famous Atlanta Campaign, and in fact took part in all the marches and battles in which his regiment was engaged and was honorably discharged June 24, 1865, after the prolonged service of 3 yrs and 3 mos.

Frederick Douglass, a former slave and well-known abolitionist who was a close friend, delivered the eulogy at Asa Wing's funeral., "He poured out his life for the perishing slave, pleading for him with an eloquence and earnestness which could scarcely have been more direct, pathetic and touching, had his own wife and children been on the auction block, " Douglass said at the time of Wing's death.

""A Reporter for Story of Henry E. Wing Soldier and Newspaperman"" is a historical non-fiction book written by Ida M. Tarbell. The book narrates the life story of Henry E. Wing, who was a soldier and a newspaperman during the American Civil War. The book starts with Wing's early life and his decision to join the Union Army during the Civil War. It then follows his journey as a soldier, his experiences during the war, and his eventual discharge from the army. After the war, Wing became a newspaperman and started working for the Chicago Tribune. He covered several important events of the time, including the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. The book provides an in-depth account of Wing's life as a journalist, his reporting style, and his contributions to the field of journalism. The book also sheds light on the political and social climate of the time and how it affected the lives of people like Wing. It highlights the challenges faced by journalists during that era and the role of newspapers in shaping public opinion. Overall, ""A Reporter for Story of Henry E. Wing Soldier and Newspaperman"" is a well-researched and engaging account of a remarkable man's life and his contributions to journalism and the history of the United States.

The wing family has been here since the beginning but I would bet dollars to donuts no one here has ever heard of them.

You prolly also think were asian or something lmao, I can understand why the wing family always thought they were descended from vikings, we are big people.

But this is what retards are telling me I have to feel sorry for.

Its fucking near impossible for me to contemplate, my head nearly blows the fuck up.

Freedom is a hashtag to these people, they do not know, or even want to know what freedom really is.

Ironically enough im from daniels lineage, which isnt all that surprising. I wasnt surprised to find out he wasnt a quaker either, he just thought everyone deserved to be allowed to choose what they believe.

Fucking evil white people.
