 And just because one lives in the American society/community, it does NOT
 necessarliy mean they are a "member" of the Dominant Culture. Actually, I'm
 still looking for the good definition of DC. The closest, IMHO, we have ever
 come is the VERY GENERAL lists of attributes/attitudes comparing 
A/American/
 Asian cultures. And I fit some of all of them. Probably more from the Asian
 and NA columns than from the American column.
 
 Article in today's paper about an organization that is studying "white
 culture". The white psychologist heading up the group is a diversity
 consultant for businesses and is married to a black woman. The group is
 called the Center for the Study of White American Culture. Where is it
 located you ask? Roselle, New Jersey. And they have a website but the URL
 was not given in the article.
