I ask this question because it has important political, cultural, and sociological ramifications. Honestly, I define White people as anyone who's Racialy Caucasoid, which is a Forensic anthropological term that describes the skull structure of the native populations of Europe, North Africa, and the Middile East. This is basically the definition the US census uses. However, most White Americans with racial and religious biases (and who don't understand Forensic Anthropology), tend to use the term "White" as a synonym for Europeans (particularly Christian ones), due to the fact they don't want to acknowledge the fact that those "scary brown Arab Muslims", are the same Race as themselves. Finally, hardcore Neo-Nazi types tend to believe only Blue-eyed, Blond-haired, Germanic people are White, though from a historical perspective this used to be the mainstream definition of the term, hence the fact that conservative nativists were so desperate to stop the mass migration of Irish, Italians, and Slavs, in the early 1900s (the historical Irony is that the majority of the descendents of those three persecuted immigrant groups are Trump supporters today). So taking all of this into consideration, what do you think the most accurate definition is in today's political climate?
