« on: September 12, 2017, 10:23:43 PM »well yeah that can be an alternative word for it i guess.
however minorities is a broader term though and can refer to a lot more than just race
"racial minorities"

"minorities" is already a word

« on: September 12, 2017, 10:04:29 PM »I'd be inclined to agree that POC is kind of a stuffty catch-all label that serves more as a signal of virtue rather than a useful descriptive term. 99% of the time when the term POC comes up, it's in talks about stuff like systemic discrimination/police brutality/etc, when in those contexts, it makes virtually no sense.
Everyone who isn't white is a person of color. A rich-ass Chinese immigrant is a POC. A guy who's 1/4 Argentinian is a POC. A black guy is a POC. But what commonalities are there in the discrimination they face in our society? Basically nothing because their experiences are completely different.

when used to refer to race i agree with you but when used to refer to ethnicity it's a useful term

words of wisdom
I just call black people black people. But if people want to use the term "PoC" I guess that's ok
for once i agree with you. i've never deliberately gone against someone's wishes when it comes to this sorta stuff, regardless of my personal views on the issue. if someone seriously asks me to call them attack helo, then i guess i'd have a classmate known as attack helo
if it didnt come off right from the op- when someone asks me to use the term then i will. this thread is me ranting about my personal opinion, not about how my opinion is fact and that i have to enforce the "correct" terms in person or some stuff like that
the spaniards are handicapped anyway
