What do journalists call a black guy from the UK? (hint, it's not african-american)
Also, a little curiosity. I'm portuguese... some of my ancestors were responsible for taking african people to the americas... great for them, huh?
Anyway, around here, we also have two words for the black color: preto (translates to black) and negro (translates to...errr... negro
).
The curious part is that, in portuguese, the politically correct way to refer to the skin color of a black person is to call it "negro". "preto" is seen as pejorative.
