[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband is 1st generation (1st born here, parents immigrated) and his parents use a word in their language to mean African American, pronounced like "cul-LOO" He said multiple times he was horribly embarrassed because they just felt like they could say it anywhere since they were speaking another language. Have no clue that people have enough sense to know they are talking about you even if they don't know the language. They did the same to me once and it was super obvious (talking about why I wasn't eating a particular thing)[/quote] Yeah...and I've discovered that many AAs actually are familiar with that term, which makes it even more embarrassing.
