“African American,” “BIPOC,” “Latinx,” and “BAME” Terms Need to Go!

A Pox on “Latinx,” “BAME,” “African American,” and “BIPOC” Terms.

 

“BAME acronym: UK broadcasters commit to avoiding catch-all term.”

Vast majority of Hispanics are offended by “Latinx.”

Now, do “African American” and “BIPOC.” 

It’s all a scam. Few things are more comedic, sad, and foolish than corporations contorting themselves over their use of the latest terms (of dubious origins) for their consumers.

Pro Tip: Don’t let artificial contrivances – that allow organizations to hide their failings at representation – make their way into your communications. When you do, you’re being complicit in the fraud and devaluing your fellow travelers.
