Interesting point. Blacks and Latinos refer to themselves as ‘’people of color’’. So if I call some black or Latino ‘’colored’’, is that racist?

My thought was -

what if some group expressed concern that a non-white would win a NYC Council seat?

Yeah, we know what that would be greeted with.

Yes, thats considered racist. Blacks and Latinos are called ‘people of color’ by blacks, latinos, and whites. Which means they are colored. But saying they are ‘colored people’ is racist. Go figure. I’ve given up trying to figure out how progressive brains work.
