USA, Canada / Can you BE Polish without SPEAKING Polish in the US? [256]


Two:
- the language if you don't know you better learn.
- self-identity!believing themselves to be Polish.
What you are asking here is a side issue.
OP ask can you be Pol-Am without speaking Polish. Yes, you can. The point that everybody here seems to be missing is - they are not claim to be Polish but Polish Americans .

Simple!

Some were and some weren't - that is a different kettle of fish delph.


Not necessarily, if some immigrant to the USA was Polish by his own free admission who are you to claim otherwise?
To infer that said immigrant wasn't Polish because his grandma (busia lol) could be German or Russian and therefore said immigrant wasn't Polish at all but possibly Jewish is indeed "bloody" insanity!

I think you are taking the pissh here.

In the USA there is a different perception of ones ethnicity. I would explain that to somebody in Europe as an additional identity as another layer of cultural self-identification.

When they say - I'm Polish it means - My ancestors and my roots are Polish therefore I'm Polish even if born and breed in America and America is my country.

Cannot explain it better.

Life / Multiracial Poles [154]


Nope it is due to a fact that in most African countries there is no elite other then tribal elite and in one country there is plenty of tribes. All those differences are exploited by corporations.

Still, Africans are none the wiser because of that and they are racist themselves and in case of SA fed that crap about colonialism.

Still there are no Dutch there are Afrikaners and their had been run this country much better than any African tribal chef (look Zimbabwe).
All the powers ganged on SA apartheid because they were afraid of rise of the new world power (and get hold on resources and ores) - no chance of that happening now.

Please keep to the original topic folks

History / Lithuanians hate Poles? [156]

"On August 18, 2011 this year. The General Prosecutor's Office of Lithuania , the European Foundation for Human Rights sent several requests to initiate criminal proceedings against those who, in their online comments called for illegal activities or concerned in a manner disparaging , derogatory and offensive to Lithuanian citizens belonging to national minorities , in particular the Polish minorities. The legal basis is Article complaints . 170 (para. 2 and 3) of the Criminal Code , which criminalizes incitement against any nation , race , ethnic, religious or other group of people.

In our opinion, the authors of the comments spoke about ethnic minorities in ways that transcend the boundaries of freedom of expression defined by international agreements ratified by the Republic of Lithuania, the European Convention on Human Rights and the Constitution RL . Complaints have been made ​​by the European Foundation of Human Rights , whose main aim is to promote civic activities and soliciting respecting the rights of marginalized groups , both because of their ethnic origin , social status , religion or sex."

Whereas if your name is Brazauskas there is no problem in printing it like that in Poland.
It shouldn't be a problem for Lithunians to print Brzozowski.

Bah ! Polish children aren't allowed to be named freely in Poland. I wouldn't call that discrimination would you ?
I fully support your right (and anybody's for the matter) to name your children as you like for example -Ixazalvoh.

Nevertheless naming children is only secondary issue, the right to educate your children in your own language is something that minorities in Poland enjoy freely and Poles in Lithuania do not.

I call that discrimination - what says you?
eh?



Nicely done !
You haven't answered my question.
