Discuss any changes you wish to make here. Admiral_Farmer (talk)
- Oh, sorry, I hadn't seen the talk page when I left you a talk page message. I rewrote the page a bit and did some formatting. Patriotic Gamer (talk) 13:10, November 23, 2022 (EST)
This page was created by an obvious troll
First of all, the habit of capitalizing "white" when in reference to race is a standard ritual among white supremacists who hold a pagan, collectivist worship of "Aryanism" or whatever. Second of all, only leftists would obsess over racial identity, and it's inappropriate for any Conservapedia article to emphasize identity politics. Third of all, emphasizing Celler's heritage and background in the context it was used is a blatant antisemitic canard to insinuate some sort of "Jewish conspiracy" nonsense. Fourthly, the Hart-Celler Act was intended to remove racist restrictions against immigration that lingered from the Johnson-Reed Act.
The original author of this entry, probably an RW troll, has 24 hours to apologize and fix his bigotry or be banned. —LT (The Old Right was right!) Wednesday, 14:41, November 23, 2022 (EST)

Recent changes in guides to grammar as far as race
Recently, I bought about a dozen books on grammar/usage/writing as my interest in these subjects has increased.
"Racial and ethnic groups are designated by proper nouns and are capitalized. Therefore, use “Black” and “White” instead of “black” and “white” (do not use colors to refer to other human groups; doing so is considered pejorative). Likewise, capitalize terms such as “Native American,” “Hispanic,” and so on." APA Style Grammar Guidelines [1]
"Chicago Manual of Style (CMOS)
Pre-George Floyd: Use lower case for black and white to refer to a person’s race or ethnicity “unless a particular author or publisher prefers otherwise.”
As of June 22, 2020: Write Black with a capital B; write White with a capital W (and similar terms to maintain consistency like Brown).
It is with a spirit of equity and with an eye toward future generations—and with a debt of gratitude owed to those who have led us here—that we embrace the changes . . . We hope you will embrace them too.
Associated Press Style (AP)
Pre-George Floyd: Use lowercase for both black and white.
As of July 20, 2020: Capitalize Black in a racial, ethnic or cultural sense, conveying a shared sense of history, identity and community among people who identify as Black, including those in the African diaspora and within Africa.
Lowercase the term white in racial, ethnic and cultural senses."[2] Conservative (talk) 14:52, November 23, 2022 (EST)
