the way nonblack people have ignored that black people don’t like being to as “blacks” is gross

it doesn’t even sound right. it’s as if you don’t want to refer to black people as PEOPLE so you’re gonna call them a “black.”

We grow up and titles change - from being 'a black woman' it changed to a 'a coloured woman' and now, so I believe, it's back to 'a black woman'

I don't really like the whole 'afro american' thing, unless you ARE that particular mix....it just confuses people.

But....I get what you mean. Filling in those forms I dislike putting 'white british' as much as I dislike how further down the tick boxes I am in those age ranges (I'm 50...)

That's just my thoughts...
