Entry: Race, Nationalism, and Patriotism, Part III: Patriotism Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/race_nationalism_and_patriotism_part_iii_patriotism#15929 Post contents: Mr. Capp: I am an American. Americans typically refer to ourselves as "Americans," not "Gringos." The people who commonly refer to us as "Gringos" do not intend it as a compliment. Its usage by someone living in the United States is thus both irritating and bizarre. Sent at: 2008 07 20
