Segregation was still legal when you were a kid. :P
I agree that claiming that's a racial slur is reaching, but words do take on different connotations. Apparently it is a "pejorative" if used by a white person.

Then why is it okay to say "of color"? Colored is an even older term than Negro. Colored was followed by Negro, black, and "African-American".
Can whites talk about the United Negro College Fund? Or the Negro Leagues (when blacks were not allowed in Major League Baseball).

I remember Chaim say "They call each other n*gger. Then they said colored, then Negro, black, and African-American but they realize the original name for blacks in the English language was n*gger.". That was the first JTF show I heard 18 years ago when Carl McCall was running for Governor. I still have the show saved on my computer.
