I had that as a word on my racist bingo card?
All those times in the 90s I told my sweet grandma not use it

People of color is everyone. White is a color and it's racist to suggest otherwise.

Progressives control the language son

You still can't use "colored," I didn't find out "of color" was ok until I got on Twitter. This makes it convenient so for rich Arabs, Indians, Chinese, etc can come here and imply they are "oppressed" as well

I am a fraction of the value she brought to this earth no doubt. She packed a lot into those 10 years of schooling.

People of color: perfectly ok
Colored people: Holy frick you’re racist

Only the NAACP is allowed to use the phrase “Colored people.”

White is all colors. Black is the absence of color. People that use POC for blacks are racist cultural appropriators. Once again, the "party of science" proves they don't actually know anything about science.
White people can be white, red, tan, blue, or yellow depending on the situation. Black people can only be different shades of black. Who are the real people of color?

If you are white speech has consequences, just another privilege.

When the left, so invested in victimology-terminology, realized that African American excluded many blacks from victim status.
True story: WSB in Atlanta recycles paper. When they began this custom, they had two separate boxes, one for traditional paper and another for color stock. The two boxes were labeled ‘white paper’ and ‘colored paper’.
Black employees complained, so they changed the second box to ‘paper of color’

Where have you been? POC - black and brown people in vogue are Michael Jordan, Queen B, Chris Rock, Jimmi Hendrix, Shaq, Denzel Washington, all of the rappers, singers, sports stars, movie stars, most LSU star players, and let’s not forget Obama.

You probably should leave Michael Jordan out. He’s considered a racist traitor now since he’s running for senator as a Republican.

My comments were not about political parties. Michael Jordan is a POC and has been in vogue for decades which is what the clueless OP posted as a thread.

I remember seeing a NYT article c. 1990 that only 3% of blacks wanted to be called "African American"
But they refused to let up on it and now many people use it w/o even thinking
Same w/Asian, Native American, and homeless

When white people could pretend to not be white would be my guess. Just check out that little blonde white girl who's actions got her friend killed when she jumped on the back of a man holding a gun.

I was just making a point that Jordan isn’t considered black anymore by a lot of his people.

Tell me...why is "people of color" okay, but "colored people" is not?
