    I mean, I actually think it is very possible to be more white than Italians—they weren’t even considered white in America until the last 100 years or so.

      Yes, this. I’m quite sure if I ventured back to the place where I grew up I could find more than a few people that would consider Italians as non-white.

        Which is kind of funny when I think about the casual racism that was thrown around by my Italian immigrant Grandmother when I was a kid.
