Probably at the behest of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.

The left and “people of color” went through a series or terms (Afro-American, African-American, etc.) before settling on “Black.” White Southerners referred to “colored people,” so the was out. People should be referred to by the term they like, anyway. The NAACP referred to “people of color” so that was in. Whatever, I don’t mind being called “white” or Caucasian, even though I had a great grandmother that had “a touch of the tar brush.”

There is a Marxist black group named Color of Change and the NAACP isn’t the National Association for the Advancement of American Caucasian People.

Time to start tearing down statues again. All those who used the term colored in the past 75 years.

Can we call her anything? Every description is hate speech or racist in the lowly leftist world.

Woman= sexist
Black= racist
Color =racist
Straight= Homophobe
etc.

One word - not even a curse word, destroys an entire career - IF and only if you’re not a liberal.

Welcome to ‘1984’ for real, if the Dems win in November.

I think it was someone from the NAACP who, a couple of years ago, said the term “colored” wasn’t offensive, it was merely outdated. Times have changed.
