Caucasians are not always White - The case of Bhagad Singh
http://www.topix.com/forum/religion/...71G39N9QGJF5FT
Not All Caucasians Are White: The Supreme Court Rejects Citizenship for Indians Posted in the Hindu Forum .... United States v. Bhagat Singh Thind, 261 U.S. 204 (1923), was a case in which the United States Supreme Court decided that Bhagat Singh Thind, who was a high caste Punjabi, settled in Oregon, could not be a naturalized citizen of the United States, despite the fact that a proportion of anthropologists had defined a proportion of people in India as part of the Caucasian race. In its decision in the case of U.S. v. Bhagat Singh Thind (1923), the Supreme Court deemed Indians ineligible for citizenship because U.S. law allowed only free whites to become naturalized citizens. The court conceded that Indians were "Caucasians" and that anthropologists considered them to be of the same race as white Americans, but argued that "the average man knows perfectly well that there are unmistakable and profound differences." The Thind decision also led to successful efforts to denaturalize some who had previously become citizens. This represented a particular threat in California, where a 1913 law prohibited aliens ineligible for citizenship from owning or leasing land. Only in 1946 did Congress, which was beginning to recognize that India would soon be independent and a major world power, pass a new law that allowed Indians to become citizens and also established a small immigration quota. |

Caucasians are from Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and parts of Central Asia (questionably it can be further east), but only Europeans are white. Basically, whites are a sub-group of Caucasians.

It's possible to keep it simple: the only whites WN's should be concerned with are those who originated in Europe (including Russia). Outside of these boundaries there are other Caucasoids - but they are not white, either in physical appearance or in a socio-cultural sense. Forget them.

In ancient India, there were populations of White people. Not this shit skin Caucasian that is what Indians are today. They went extinct mostly for the same reason the rest of the White world is going extinct today, miscegenation.

The blue-eyed, fair-haired Nuristani people who still live in Afghanistan are an example of a tribe descended from the ancient Aryans who have largely resisted miscegenation: |
