[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am following the Juneteenth tread with interest (I’m a white person) and have a question after reading the NPR article linked there. Why the repeated references to “Black folks” and “White people”? Folks and people? Is this subtly racist? How do Black people (folks?) feel about this, if anything?[/quote] Interesting pick up. It’s kind of like you can say Jewish people, but saying “Jews” sounds racist. I wonder why this subtle change in the wording has a subtle difference. [/quote]
