[Al B. Sure!]

at douchebags who capitalize "black".

Why wouldn't you?

[Asher]

Because it's not a proper noun?

[Al B. Sure!]

What was the problem, Asher?

[giblets]

Well Amerıcans typıcally shower daıly and Europeans don't so, we get more contact wıth the water...

Is this another "fact" about people in a place you've never been to that you pulled out of your ass?

[Al B. Sure!]

So I guess you all write koreans and germans and stuff lıke that?

[KrazyHorse]

"Korean": from the place name "Korea", a proper noun

"black": from the common noun "black", a color

You don't know that Europeans don't bath daıly? It's theır culture.

[KrazyHorse]

African-American: capitalized

black: not capitalized

"black": from the common noun "black", a color

Black also represents a people. Don't act lıke thıs ısn't common practıce. And I've been doıng thıs sınce forever postıng on Apolyton. You just notıce ıt now?

Are you also dropping your "e"s as a protest against the White Man?

From a synopsis of the APA Style Guıde:

Color. Capitalize Black and White when the words are used as proper nouns to refer to social groups. Do not use color words for other ethnic groups. In racial references, the manual simply recommends that we respect current usage. Currently both the terms "Black" and "African American" are widely accepted, while "Negro" and "Afro-American" are not. These things change, so use common sense.

It's common practice amongst the pretentious like yourself and che.

As though I think the APA style guide is the revealed word of God

Oh, and I note that they ask you to capitalize "white", which you don't regularly do...
