Technically, these people could be called African-Americans, as they come from South Africa.

In the interest of political correctness, I don’t use that well known racist term for jury-rig. I prefer the term “ Afro-engineer”.

The proper term used to be “negro”, then “black”, then “African-American “. You need an app that tells you the race name du jour.

I recently found out the word “oriental” is a no-no.

So we’re back to describing people by their skin color, which by the way should not be capitalized and does not actually describe skin color in the vast majority of cases? I’ve yet to meet a “white” person whose skin was the color of milk or a “black” person whose skin was not actually some shade of brown.

But perhaps most surprising among the newly forbidden words is the term "African-American." Why is it now wrong to say that highly politically correct phrase?

For Black folks born in the United States ...

Sorry, Payne, but you're contributing to the problem by capitalizing "black".

Blacks seek to keep the agenda on skin color to divert attention from their failing cultural values.

Every once in a while,the secular comes up with something that reflects bible principles..
Without them knowing it..

Africa is a biblically cursed Continent.
Mainly because of the enslavement of His People, Israel.

It then isn’t an accident that Africans would then become slaves themselves.

A biblical equation of sowing and reaping.
You sow slavery, you reap slavery.

Identifying with a biblically cursed Continent is not the best way to free oneself, or families, or communities of biblical curses.

So this secular University may have bumped into a biblical premise that it had no intention not bumping into.

Conservatives sometimes wonder how blacks can consistently vote for a democrat party that seemingly enslaves them into poor communities,poor schools, dangerous neighborhoods.

Maybe it’s because they aren’t free.
Spiritually.
Stop identifying with a cursed Continent and maybe that could set people free.

The correct term is Negro.

So...”Folks” is OK? It is used a number of times in this article.

Africa originally just meant the area around Carthage in what is now Tunisia. So maybe "African-American" should be restricted to immigrants from Tunisia and their descendants.

I think Jesse Jackson was the one who demanded we use the expression "African American" back in the 1970s. I guess by now he has passed the torch of Conscience of the United States to Al Sharpton. So someone needs to ask Rev. Al what term we honkies are supposed to use.
