Do you find being called "black" offensive?
I live in a small town in Canada, which has a very small black population. I've always just called people of African descent "blacks", in the same way I call Caucasians "whites", without meaning anything harmful or derogatory, as does everyone I know. I'm wondering, though, if "black" people don't like being called that, and would rather be called "African-Canadian" or a similar term. And is the term "Negro" any different?
