what?!

You don't need to be african to be"black"?

You think that indians are black?!?!

Jesus christ

What group do you think they go under then?

Indians are asians with brown skin

They are south asians

As india the country is in the continent of asia

So, according to you, the UK government considers Indians to be...asians?

Yes

Can you source that?

Asians is used differently in the UK and the US

My source is myself and any other British person you ever talk to

including @TheBritishGamer ❤🔑 (Meh)

So...you don't have a source

Aside from "I say so"

Generally in the UK we use the word asian to mean people from Asia

Mate this is my Langauge

And the way the word is used in the country that I have lived in all my life

Ok, so then finding a source to back you up should be easy, right?

I can probably find something online to back me up if I look now

Go for it

sure

here's one http://www.city-data.com/forum/united-kingdom/2389538-why-does-word-asian-have-very.html

here's another https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Asian

Here's another https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/153890/why-dont-americans-refer-to-indians-and-others-from-the-subcontinent-as-asian

Here's another https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1173226

I admit I was wrong then. Here in the states Asian does have an entirely different meaning

I know it does

And that's what I was trying to tell you

I just assumed you were using the british meaning since we were talking about britain

But back to the main discussion

Indians and Pakistani's are not black

they are brown skinned south Asians

Tag!

Someone tagged me

Was tagging you so you could back me up that the word asian in UK is used to mean pakistanis and indians as well as oriental people but we've established that now

Yeah

This guy's trying to say that indians and pakistanis are black

The UK definition of Asian includes the Subcontinent

The fuck?
