It is my opinion that until people stop using hyphenated terms to describe themselves (African-American, Latin-American etc) instead of American, we will continue to have race problems in our country. I would never describe myself as English-American, nor would my husband describe himself as German-American. Our ancestors came to this great country to find freedoms not permitted in their "home" countries. When they got here they did everything to acclimate to being AMERICAN. They were proud to be American..as I am.
