It’s bad to call someone colored but okay to call him a person of color. Color me confused.

Always confused me when I was young too. We're all 'colored' in one way or another. ;~))

It's kind of stupid what we do to torture words.

When I was in high school we had an exchange student from the Faroe Islands visit us and my mother asked him if there were any colored people who lived there? Without missing a beat he said, “Yeah, we’re all white”
