    How would you feel if someone referred to you to being colored? Colored what? Pink? I mean, it’s not an accurate description. I refer to myself as black because I’m dark as a black night. But I don’t feel that even that is an accurate description of African American people. No one is really black and no one is really white. Colored is offensive mostly because it’s from the civil right’s era where so many black people faced danger and discrimination. So, I’m guessing that’s why others are offended. But I just told you why I’m offended.
