ASP - I like that.
by Claude Scales

Having never seen an Anglo-Saxon person of color (OK, there was the guy who wrote Black Like Me, but that required medical intervention), "WASP" seems to me straight from the Department of Redundancy Department. Besides, we really are more serpentine than insect-like.

Bronx, eh? I suppose you're a Yankee fan. Too bad. Incidentally, I'm not Brooklyn born or bred. I moved here at the age of 37 after ten years in the Village, and have now resided in the Borough of Cherce longer than anywhere else, having spent my childhood as an Air Force brat. I like to tell people I've lived life in reverse: Florida to Manhattan to Brooklyn.
