A few years ago, I was surfing the cable late one night and found a lecture
being given by a high ranking member of the KKK. He was explaining who is
white and who is not. In the case of Italians like myself, if my relatives
came from Milan or some other northern city closer to Switzerland than
Africa, I was white. Anyone from southern Italy was non white because "It's
just a swim to Africa"
