[Rachel]

I myself am bi-racial, that is, if anything is what I prefer to be called. The description that most offends me is when I am called black. This may suprise some, but it offends me because I feel that to be called black, is to deny the second, equally represented part of me. I agree when said earlier that you should not have to describe people by the color of skin they are. And about the word colored, it is extreamly offensive because it does remind on of the old (not-so-good) days. Personally I think that people do not need to be called African-American,etc because there is only so much we can do to be politically correct. Just call black people black, white people white…you get the idea.
