Also, since a lot of people of color refer to themselves as black even in Europe, I don't see how it would be inappropriate. Unless of course the word in another language is also a racial slur.
- thiht 13y agoFrench here. I see this as inappropriate because it makes a difference between black people and non-black people, that's it. When I saw the title, I first wondered "Why not just "Girls Code"?" and then "Why not just "Kids Code"?". I think "black" here doesn't literally refer to black people but to foreigners in general, but I still don't get why they would limit this to "black" people and to girls only. In France in general, this would be poorly looked upon and referred as racist and sexist.
