Why do you ask? Does it make you very comfortable?

I honestly would like to know because it has been used by some members of the dominant culture repeatedly whenever there are historical or social discussions about race. Maybe if someone would provide a good working definition, then we all could understand why this has been uttered.

After all, it is another "catch phrase" (such as "I don't see a color", "We are all part of the human race", "You're playing the race card", etc.).

So, respectfully, it is about coming clean about an oft-used word.

In light of that, I would like to hear what other people think about this phrase civily.
