I'm not sure how to word this... I'm confused that we are still calling people "black" and "white", when their actual color is nowhere near those two. It's no longer cool to call people "yellow" or "redskin", so why are those still accepted? People I know actually use "dark-brown", "light-brown", and "light-skinned" and other such more accurately descriptive terms when actually describing someone's appearance, and I like that much better.
