All Whites Are Not Alike NAC-23

Contrary to what my dear friends of African, Asian, and Hispanic descent may think, whites are not all alike. You cannot call an Irishman English any more than calling a Cuban or Puerto Rican, a Mexican, a Filipino, Chinese, or vice versa.

And they will let you know it with great pride. So it should be quite understandable when a Norwegian does not want to be mistaken for a Swede. There is a big difference between a Norwegian and a Swede. At least, that was what my Aunt Agnes always told me, although you may have to be a Norwegian to know or appreciate the difference. I used to say that I could spot a Swede a mile away, and after thirty years of laughing at me, my non-Norwegian wife suddenly began to tell the difference too.
