If the victimhood lobby wouldn’t change the terminology every decade, UNCF and NAACP would have these problems. Today, the term “colored people” is considered offensive while “people of color” is considered sensitive. That’s just nuts.

No, it's a way to identify who is so subservient to the current fashion, as dictated by the Elite, that they will adopt the currently fashionable terms immediately

So it's settled then..."NAACP" will hereafter change its name to "NAAPC".
