But what word would you have us use in place of 'negro' then? Not that it matters, i'm just curious as to what your choice of acceptable language is.
You cannot compare caucasian and Negro.. Black is the acceptable term nowadays.. Whereas back in the day it was vice versa.. Times change, we just have to respect and accept that certain words are and can become taboo.

If I know a simple word can offend someone, I will refrain from using it. That is not really a big ask is it?
