Mixed african, mixed carribean, mixed other (white and another ethnicity)

And then we got chinese, pakistan and indian and 3 more groups after that etc. And if none apply we got 'other - please state'.
I figure cause we got a set number of ethnic groups that dominate from each region around the world in the UK, it'd be easier to classify, but London usually makes a point to focus and welcome diveristy and acknowledge it, so we all grow up doing the same...

I figure in Vexx's case he has some personal experiences regarding that, I'd go with the 'circle two bubble' idea too.
So it's more a govemental/media thing to focus on single ethnic group categories, rather the average american preference then?

I was talking about the US system, which I personally know due to having lived in the Chicago Area for five years.
