The term "People of Color" is racist and dishonest
People of color? Seriously?
Black people wish to be called black. That's what they call themselves. Calling them "colored people" is an insult. So how do you reverse that phrase, add a preposition and somehow it is no longer an insult?
Besides, if black people are people of color, what are caucasian people? No color? White people have all kinds of shade from pink to light orange and some olive skin tones.
People born in India have very dark skin. But they are considered ASIAN. People born in Russia appear white, but they are ASIAN as well.
And what about this idiotic "African American" crap? Egypt is in Africa. But they aren't part of the negro race. They have olive skin, similar to those from India, but they aren't African American.
What about white racists from South Africa? Are they African American as well?
If you want to advance humanity, you might try getting rid of the racism and just refer to every human on the planet as PEOPLE OF COLOR. We are ALL a "color."
Don't judge us by skin color. Judge us by our choices and our actions.
