Is it "race baiting" to note a simple and perhaps interesting fact? Would it have been "race baiting" to note upon Obama's election that he would be the first black US president?
Edit: also your pedantry is extremely obnoxious; no one expects a headline to include the phrase "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland."

- rayiner 4y agoIt’s race baiting (and demeaning) to reduce someone to their skin color in a headline like this. It would have been fine to note the fact somewhere. The term “person of color” is race baiting. It’s a recently created term that erases people’s real identities and replaces them with an identity that serves simply to stand in juxtaposition to white people. Sunak isnt a “person of color.” He’s a British national of Indian ethnicity.
