I should elaborate my point slightly. Even Wikipedia says this: “For many other individuals, communities and countries, "black" is perceived as a derogatory, outdated, reductive or otherwise unrepresentative label, and as a result is neither used nor defined, especially in African countries with little to no history of colonial racial segregation” [1] So to many (maybe not in US) it already is an offensive term. My thought would be why not move past the term of black people to something more universal with no historical questionability, and not get caught up in “is black <something>” offensive. Instead of having to fight and question a lot of black <something> due to its actual color, embrace a more transcendent new term (much like Indian vs Indigenous Person vs Native American, that movement) 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_people https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_people Edit for minor typo
