Various people push for changes in language.
At one time black or African-American people were called Negro. But nowadays we are not supposed to say Negro.
Nowadays we are not supposed to say Indian , we are supposed to talk about Native American or indigenous people instead.
Nowadays we are not supposed to talk about illegal aliens. We are supposed to describe such people using different language.
And you will find yourself in trouble if you innocently use the banned terms, which at one time were perfectly acceptable.
It get crazy. Consider the term “colored people” , for example. It is considered offensive nowadays. Yet it is ok to say “people of color”.
And consider how some homosexual activists are using the word “queer” in a positive way. That word used to be a deeply offensive way to describe a homosexual.
Whatever the case, you will be call to task if you use the wrong word nowadays.
“we are supposed to talk about Native American or indigenous people instead.”

Strange “Indians” don’t wish to be called such because they’re not from India yet they want to called American from the guy, Amerigo Vespucee(sp?), the Italian map maker from whom America is derived?
