Biden ever have a compassionate thought about such a thing.
“Colored” vs. “Negro” vs. “Afro-American”: Historically, there have been many terms used to describe people of African descent in North America. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries (roughly 1850-1960), two words that were commonly used were “colored” and “Negro.”
Quick - someone inform the NAACP . . . Oh, wait . . . never mid
Thanks. That in my mind makes it totally acceptable, though those in his party would likely not forgive Pubbies for such a reference.
Do you know how to get home Joe? Is your name in your jacket?
NAACK
National Association for the Advancement of Colored Kids.
“colored people”?
“people of color”?
The whole manipulation of language is absurd. Especially when trying to discuss or portray historical events. Using terms that did not exist at that time.
Your correct.
The problem here is, Biden is a slandering lying worthless piece of shit.
His whole family is the same.
The reason his kids are the way they are is because of his abuses.
People born in the 1930s and 1940s were brought up to use the word “colored”, it’s not degenerate and it’s not meant to be offensive.
OMG, with 10,000 things to criticize about Biden, you pick that one?
To be fair Biden was right from the beginning in being against bussing. I grew up in New Castle County DE and this was a hot topic here in the late 70’s. It was not popular at all in NCCo and nearly destroyed public education in the county over the next twenty years.
“Kids of color” is more acceptable?
Much ado about very little.
“I actually thought he mumbled something to the effect of “were called”, suggesting that that’s what they were known as then.
But I can’t believe I might be defending Biden on something!”
I agree. Don’t see a problem here.
the time called ‘colored kids,’
Well yes that’s what they were called in my time, in my colored neighborhood and colored school in n Philly
Not sure what you are getting at here.
Are you saying that the term “colored” was not used to describe black people at that time? Or people of color?
If so, you are completely wrong.
The term was used extensively. The same as white people or white neighborhoods.
Democrat Joe Biden lies every single
time that he opens his mouth
Just like Manchurian Candidate
Barack Hussein Obama (John 8:44)
(as we all know, but for the thread)
I haven’t heard anyone use the term “colored kids” in thirty years. Last night, Pedo Joe screwed that up. What a pig. Go chase the ice cream truck, Jo Jo.
Like Paul says, “Get Back Jo Jo. Go home”.
As the bus went by, Joe made a funny face. Corn Pop was on that bus, saw it and never forgot it. In a more rational, civilized world, maybe they could have been friends. 🤣
Is somebody or is some organization actually paying Joe Biden for this appearance? Who would “toss their grocery bag full of dollar bills out the window of a speeding car” like that?
This looks like a nightclub comedy act, done by somebody pretending to be Biden. But done as an obvious parody.
Backlash only in the far reaches of right wing blogs. No mainstream outlet is covering this. No one knows this happened.
It reads like he said, “they used to be called”. That is just history. Nothing wrong. We are in Orwell’s 1984 where the words used keep changing. Negro, retarded, handicapped all become offensive. People are looking for ways to be offended.
