I just do not think it is true or politically savvy to say it is a problem. I can see how a middle class working black guy would get pissed at that comment.

Being slightly beyond middle age (62) and a half black man myself .. I don't see the 'offense'?

The United Negro College Fund organization doesn't seem to have a problem with it either?

Growing up ... Negro and was perfectly acceptable!

I hate to say this but when us Negro's watch folks fall all over themselves in trying to be Politically Correct in the words they use .. It doesn't make us respect you anymore than we do or don't do now!

My black son in law thinks the same thing.

Hey, your name wouldn’t be “Tom” would it? ;)
