Colour of white people

What is the colour or shade that best describes the skin of white people. Obviously it's not white. Crayola taupe?78.86.61.94 (talk) 10:36, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

Well... since being white is a social definition that varies from society to society, that depends on the society and the dominat definition therein. The Ogre (talk) 09:20, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

"During slavery"

What does "during slavery" actually mean? Slavery is not a period of time, as "during" would imply. I suggest this phrase be amended, but I don't really have a suggestion for how. Victor Engel (talk) 21:52, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
