It's very interesting that, whenever I post something, you find a reason to shift the focus, disagree with me, and generally turn the conversation into something it wasn't.

I'm also not clear why my comments are suddenly "not relevant." Apparently because you've decided they are not?

I had been responding to a previous poster talking about Josefina Scaglione and how she "read" on stage, in the context of that revival- and the poster suggested that she wasn't "white."

And I was pointing out that conceptions of race are quite different in Argentina. Which you seem to agree with.

But just because conceptions of race are different, that doesn't mean the same words aren't used. People use "white" to describe themselves in South America. It doesn't necessarily have the same meaning it does in the U.S., but it is a word that gets used. Which can lead to some confusion.

And I'm sure you will find a way to disagree with this post as well. Even though I suspect we are pretty much saying the same thing. Because that seems to be what you like to do here.
