Bananas, Oreos and ....

If a BANANA is a Chinese who is "white" inside and an OREO is a Black who is "white" inside, then guess what an Indian who is "white" inside is? A COCONUT! Anyway, I was giving my colleague grief by accusing him of being a BANANA when the COCONUT pointed out that I'm a BANANA myself. And the only way we could explain it to the American was to bring up the OREO.

I wouldn't call this racism.

I will be proud if the boy grew up to become a BANANA OREO COCONUT mix. All of it, white, black, brown, yellow and all the other colors in between! If anything the world is lacking in now, it's colorful Global Citizens!
