"One student was upset at Ms. St. John's using the term "black" rather than "African-American." Ms. St. John acknowledged that she may be out of date with her terminology and agreed to use "African-American" if the student preferred. Rather than showing racial bias, Ms. St. John's reaction demonstrates her racial sensitivity."

Sheer PC stupidity IMO.

Aren't we supposed to say "people of color" now?
How long before someone shortens that and we go full circle?
