Bill,
Please refrain from generalizing about what "many Americans"
think, or do not think. I've lived in the United States of
America for nearly 69 years, and have never met a single

David is the second person that has commented on this thread, saying that
people need to be careful not to "confuse" race with nation of origin.
This totally baffles me as to how anyone wouldn't know what the difference

African
Only some of them (census) had contained race.
Also one needs to careful as to what is a race and not a nation of origin.

But it's a "fact" note the list is titled Events/Facts.
Not everything in the census is in Legacy - and don't forget, the census
