What are we supposed to refer to "black people" as?

[Run]

Call them by their respective names. If you don't know the name then ask them what it is, refer to them as Mr/Mrs/Miss etc when asking...

The last person I called "mr" or "sir" might have been my 5th grade principal who yelled at me for throwing a rock at a kid in recess. Nty.

That's a bit much, game

KRS1 explains it best.

Check it, white man is European
And blackman is African
White man never say Euro-American
So why should the blackman say Afro-American?
If the blackman is American with a afro
Then the white man is American with a long nose
It should be Long-Nose-American for the white man
Jump around and move your bottom

Never take any advice from rappers.

Italian-American.

Racist doe.

[Mr Ehrmantraut]

Also never take any advice from a man that starts a sentence with "Check it", unless of course, that man is Ali G.

Unless corrected, I'm sticking with "Black". Its simplest and most descriptive. Nobody ever uses the term, "European-American"......and I never have had any relatives from the Caucas Mountains, yet the word "Caucasian" gets thrown around because, that's supposedly the origin of "Whites".

Caught a Cherokee woman referring to Whites as "Caucasoids" once and brought it up in an interview for a show I was doing promoting an upcoming Pow-Wow. She was embarrassed as hell. So, I deduced it was not a complementary term. I kind of suspected that; but wasn't sure until I saw her squirm in her chair. I alleviated the tension and we ended up having a good conversation after that; but you could tell it embarrassed her.

Whits, Black, Indian, and Asian seems to be the breakdown, though I have to specify on "Indian sometimes to clarify whether I'm referring to natives of the subcontinent or simply native americansns.

I think she said "Native-Indian" was preferable; but sometimes just "American Indian". By the time the rest of the group showed up for the interview, I found out that among them, "Native American" was laughable.

Strange, how labels are a part of our lives.

How about calling black people by their name?

It stems from anthropologists classifying the "actual three human races," caucasoids, negroids, and mongoloids.
