Do you find Americans are way too sensitive about race?

In Europe we have no problem with it, we call each other black or white and that’s the end of it

Yes, but that's kinda understandable, considering America has this long history of racism against black people that Europeans don't have. Sure, there has been anti-black racism in Europe, but nothing like America's systems of slavery and segregation.

There are some older Germans who feel uneasy when talking about Jews. It's kinda funny, you see them almost clamor up and speak in the nicest way possible. Like they're terrified of being accused of being Nazis.
So yeah, kinda the same thing. Though I agree both groups are way too sensitive.
