I had to re-read this a couple of times to make sure I was reading it correctly, but I completely agree. Same words, just a different order. Still separating based on external appearances.
Those who say ppl of color are no different from those who say colored ppl. Same divisive, segregationist mindset.

Just to know. I really don't want to insult anybody. If I have to identify someone and I'm asked details about them, if they are not white people how would I call them to be correct.

I’ve never understood how the one is acceptable if the other isn’t. White is, after all, a colour.

And to add to the irony black is actually the absence of any colour! Still, don’t think the liberals are looking for a science lesson.

Genuine question - how do you then refer to people from minority ethnic groups without being offensive?
-
It isn't about being offensive, it is about being divisive. Having dark skin or light skin does not add or subtract to the intrinsic value or dignity of a person of any colour.
