Therefore, even those of us colored folk who've been called the n-word (with hostility) like it was our first name better learn our place (again). But damn, it's an interesting picture. Getting frisked by the race police. Nonwhites getting told how to address nonwhites on the internet. Oh shit, did I just "out" someone? Is this a demographic turn for the worst? Forgive me Refrieds, for I have sinned. I don’t know if you got the memo, Refrieds, but everyone on the internet is either white or asian.

The preferred nomenclature is "African American". Bet you didn't know that, did you? Negro means black man in Spanish, so don’t be all “English First” up in this jammy.

A "negro"? That's not the most appropriate way to describe a black man either. This isn't the 1930s. “He was a negro who got them drinks…”

Shame on you for not being able to tell black people from white actors in blackface! Those people weren’t black, they were actors playing black people.

Also the owner of the Detox Center is Black too. Did you forget. But really...does it matter? Set an example of tolerance not ignorance.
