I would not walk up to college student, who had accepted funds from UNCF, and call them a negro, but I have no problem with that organization using that name. I would not walk up to a black soldier serving in the USA military and call him a buffalo soldier, although I honor the memory of Private John Randall and many other black people who have served in the armed forces of the USA.
I would not walk up to a Native American and call them a Redskin, but I don’t see a problem with an NFL team using the term.
