Can someone explain this ?🤔

My American friend sent me this.
To be honest I find it kinda weird how in America you have to choose your race when it comes to almost everything Including Job applications. I mean that shouldn’t Matter in my opinion 😅It should be either citizen or non citizen.
But Anyways, what I find weirder is why are Arabs and middle eastern people are classified as “white” ? (genuinely asking)

This is the first time I've seen no choice of "other". I'm multi-racial, but I might want to let that be known rather than to be lumped in with "no response".
This looks like an outdated form. Even in my youth I always saw an option for "other".
@DragonFruit its not there in many forms these days.

@Vivaci In that case, the forms of today are taking a step backwards...I'd rather be included as "other " than as "no response".
Exactly! I’ve had to fill out a lot of forms after I moved state. And this is annoyingly ambiguous. @DragonFruit
