As an American, you're ignorance of the history of the world is only overshadowed by your fear of your own racism as a country. >Calling people concerned with this > issue "closet racists" is part of the crazy-making mental process that > makes discussions with you impossible.> The rest of the country has moved on but closet racists want to keep harping on about words like 'colored'. You know many African Americans do not like being called 'African American', so they think you are a racist if you call them that. The closet racists are in limited company of their own now in this country. The world has moved on Jim Crows, you racists are being conscined to the dustbin of history. Only a racist cares about words like colored, black, brown, etc. To me, as a Scot, 'black' sounds way more racist than 'colored', and I'd be wary of using it in front of whites or blacks in Scotland. In France, blacks are called 'negres', and that is what the French speakers in the South USA called blacks. Shock horror !...they called blacks 'blacks' ! But then an American with his head up his ass would not have thought that there could be countries outside of America. There are also English speaking countries outside of America you know. OffWorld
