Poor ken well let's hope his wife is not too upset with him

[Johnnyuk123]

I rarely defend Helen, but at least she didn't use the same word two days after being warned that she'd be kicked out for using it again.

She so did. :joker:

[Pete.]

Good riddance racist!

[fitz2k2]

Helen said far worse yet stayed in? Totally fixed to get Ken out.:fist:

yup utter bull****!!!!!!!!!!!! n more warning then ever!!!

[Gusto Brunt]

[Jake.]

He's a bloody idiot

[Pete.]

Helen was never racially offensive which is why Ken was removed quite rightly

[Crimson Dynamo]

I dont see what ken said there as racism at all

[MB.]

She so did. :joker:

Was there are particular word she was warned against that she kept using? I thought she just went through her dictionary of possible offence, making sure that she didn't say the same one twice.

The word "Negro" is used in the English-speaking world to refer to a person of black ancestry or appearance. Negro denotes "black" in Spanish and Portuguese, derived from the ancient Latin word, niger, "black", which itself is probably from a Proto-Indo-European root *nekw-, "to be dark", akin to *nokw-, "night".

"Negro" superseded "colored" as the most polite terminology at a time when "black" was more offensive.[3] This usage was accepted as normal, including by people classified as Negroes, until the later Civil Rights movement in the late 1960s. One well-known example is the identification by Martin Luther King, Jr. of his own race as "Negro" in his famous 1963 speech I Have a Dream.

During the American Civil Rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s, some black American leaders in the United States, notably Malcolm X, objected to the word "Negro" because they associated it with the long history of slavery, segregation, and discrimination that treated African Americans as second class citizens, or worse.[4] (Malcolm X preferred "Black" to "Negro", but also started using the term "Afro-American" after leaving the Nation of Islam.)[5]
Since the late 1960s, various other terms have been more widespread in popular usage. These include "black", "Black African", "Afro-American" (in use from the late 1960s to 1990) and "African American" (used in the United States to refer to black Americans, people often referred to in the past as American Negroes).

The term "Negro" is still used in some historical contexts, such as in the name of the United Negro College Fund[7][8] and the Negro league in sports.
The United States Census Bureau announced that "Negro" would be included on the 2010 United States Census, alongside "Black" and "African-American", because some older black Americans still self-identify with the term




Older people still use words from their generation and i think Ken had no malice in what he saying when using this...

[Johnnyuk123]
