[QUOTE="Tom Schindler, post: 886382, member: 56140"] I grew up in the ghetto where I was the only "white boy" in my school. I am fully aware what terms are offensive and what aren't. I simply said calling a Black Man Colored is the same as calling a Native American a Redskin. While the term is not racist as other words are, the term is still offensive. I am willing to bet when the NAACP was founded, the term colored was just the way it is, it is no longer an acceptable term, though the name still stands. Actually, you are totally mixed up. African_Americas are blacks from Africa. I am Europeon-American because my ancesters come from Europe (A continent) and not England (A country) though I am white. Then again, I have no slave ownership in my blood since my Mom is from Germany and my father is 2nd generation from Switzerland. Tom [/QUOTE]
