My Question is why do the have "Black, African Am., or Negro"
Black I can understand
Negro, Old racist term I thought, does not belong on the Form.
"Negro" is not a racist term. It was at one time the preferred term for Afros. Old Afros still use this term, which is why it's on the Census form. The only reason you've been told that it's racist is because you're too stupid no know better, and so that when you talk to old white people and they use the term "negro", you'll think they're racist, when they're not.
American history is like the Trayvon vs. Zimmerman story. The Afros cause the problems, whites take the blame.
