Wait a minute: The lefties are always talking about “people of color,” so how does that differ from “colored people?”

I never heard of it before Big media excused Blasio and BJ’s wife for it.

Experienced it, though.

In my misspent youth working fast food, we had one of the Fraud’s sons who always laughingly apologized for being an hour late EVERY time change, spring and fall.

If you want an example of how crazy, and how long-lived, and how long-going, is the issue of what to call Americans of African descent, check out H.L. Mencken’s article, “Designations for Colored Folk” (1914).

The acceptable term has changed five or six times in my lifetime.

What about “negro” is that no longer acceptable? Is it racist now?

Lol! It makes me wonder when the white cucks in the Party are going to realize that their strategy of pointing to other whites as “racist” is going to bite them on the ass.

Never heard of it until a “colored” female coworker ‘splained it to me.

I'm getting rather tired of the black-splaining!

What is ironic is that "colored people" always meant black.

Now that that term is taboo, many non-blacks have "appropriated" the term "people of color".

As in a virtue-signaling activist saying: "As an Aleutian islander lesbian person of color..."

I think that black Americans are going to rue the day that they went ape$hit over this trivial nonsense.

Blacks will end up simply pushed aside in the favored minority category.

Right now, Hispanics are becoming the favorite sons.

Blacks will be moved to the end of the line pretty soon, (if not already) by the liberal powers that be.

As I was reading the comments on this thread something on a local PBS station had the following:

"My grandparents were colored, my parents were Negroes, and I'm Black"

It seems like the term changes to cover up something negative. What's the next term after "people of color"?
