Subject: RE: BS: PC Spanish Class- No 'black'!
Wrong. It's up to the individual. Who speaks for an entire race of people? Nobody. Nobody has the right to tell me what to be called. It's up to me, not to some spokesperson for my ethnic group but to me.

But I am at least reasonable about it. I don't call people of my ethnicity by a racist term that I forbid others outside that ethnicity to use. It's hypocritical. If you want people to meet you halfway that means you have to walk the other half.
