Does anyone else thoroughly despise the term "person of color"?

I'm not a leftist and I never will be....and I find that term for minorities to be racist. It places emphasis on their skin color, not their character, morality, or contributions to society.

It's not an expression I've ever even thought about, I don't hear it being used. It's about 40 years ago since I last heard black people being called "coloured people", I'm not sure if that's considered appropriate these days. I've always thought it best to follow James Brown's example and use the term "black" (didn't he have a hit called "Say It Loud, I'm Black And Proud"?)
