I would not mind if an older person or most other people using it in a non-offensive way referred to me as colored. I am colored. I am Black. I am American. I am Jamaican. What I don't like, is the term African-American. I will correct someone on that.

So far we have some black people that prefer the term African American and some that do not. We also have some that don't mind the term colored and others that get all uppity if they hear the term colored. Why bother trying to be pc?
