A truly BS expression. Like saying European-Americans.
Here’s another expression I utterly detest: people of color.
If we’re going to use that one, just call them colored people IMHO.
Why do Rush and so many others use the term? I honestly can think only gutless and/or stupid. But Rush is neither of these. If John Stossel can avoid the term, why not Rush?
That’s the new phrase. POC for short.
I may be wrong, so someone jump in if this isn't the case ... colored people have mixed blood, they are not 100% negroid in origin. Personally I use, correctly or incorrectly, the terms black, colored, and high-yellow based on skin tone. Occasionally, I use other terms as well, but I won't use those terms on here.
I hate the term people of color. All “people of color” have brown eyes and brown hair. Only people of noncolor have different color eyes and hair
Where have all the Negroes gone?
Negroes.
“Heres another expression I utterly detest: people of color.”
Me too,it’s awkward.
Can you imagine telling kids that they will need “paper of color” for a school project?
