There was a story not too long ago about a white kid from South Africa who had recently moved to Iowa or some place like that. Anyway, seeing as it's Black History Month, he heard the phrase "African-American" many times. Since he was new to American society, he didn't quite understand the whole "Don't call them black, call then African-American," and declares in school that he is an African-American. The school system, being the fags that they are, freaked the hell out and suspended the kid. Now this guy is anywhere from 15-17, but come on, give me a break. Students in protest were also given disciplinary actions.
I can't find the story anymore, which sucks. Don't know if it actually happened. This was a recent story this year.
