Underrepresentation is one thing. Misrepresentation is another. Stop projecting your own racial frustration onto all non-White people by characterizing us as demonizing all White people with terms like "Whitey." The whole non-White world is not sitting around plotting your demise and extinction, although you may not know that from watching TV. That's just the point though. And you still don't know what "ethnic" means. How sad for you.
