Why is it acceptable to say things like this, but not apply the same logic to - say - black people who defend their Jamaican roots (for example)? The Winward was 1948 (I think), so 60 years = 3 generations, which means you've got Jamaican teenagers whose grandparents were born in the UK, but would anyone tell them they're not Jamaican?
I'm not trying to pour gasoline on the fire, I'm just curious about what seems to be a double standard to me.
