#9 ~ “CPT” means “Colored People Time”. It is apparently a phrase that arose from within the black community itself as a way of joking about how black people tend to be late to so many things. ~

So white people are racist for using a black term even if it is not offensive to blacks?

I’m Irish, - anytime you go to Ireland, don’t expect to be ‘on time’ - don’t be foolish enough to even have a schedule in mind. I’m not offended by this and would not be offended if anyone ever spoke of it... Weird.

No, only if they're white and non-Democrats.

I've personally never really used the term in conversation. Anyone who has been in the military can tell you there are plenty of black (we referred to them as "dark green" or "light green") troops that can and do show up on time regularly without a problem.

But, I have seen it be an issue in civilian employment on occasion. Once got another black employee to testify that the plaintiff has said she was entitled to her CPT, and wasn't going to hear otherwise.

She lost.
