I asked Google. Sure enough. For example The American Moslem Foundation is still the American Moslem Foundation[]. If you go to the site americanmoslemfdtn.org, you may read the following: American Moslem Foundation (AMF) is a charitable non-profit organization that has been established by members of Muslim community in the Northwest and registered with the State of Washington in December 1988. The mission of AMF is to try safeguard the religious heritage of Muslims in America by providing religious education at various age levels. Through sheer ignorance you still think “Muslim” is just fad used by all current Muslims. This is consistent with your use of the term "Negroes:" A similar thing is Negroes in South Africa getting to vote. It looks as though they might be better off to have the more intelligent Caucasians doing the voting and governing. Negro cities in USA aren't all that great either. Message 31808670 I have assumed Muslim is American or something. No reason to change. You may assume there's no reason to change from 'Negro' to something else, but just in case: However, during the 1950s and 1960s, some black American leaders, notably Malcolm X, objected to the word Negro because they associated it with the long history of slavery, segregation, and discrimination that treated African Americans as second class citizens, or worse.[11] Malcolm X preferred Black to Negro, but also started using the term Afro-American after leaving the Nation of Islam.[12] Since the late 1960s, various other terms have been more widespread in popular usage. These include black, Black African, Afro-American (in use from the late 1960s to 1990) and African American.[13] The word Negro fell out of favor by the early 1970s. However, many older African Americans initially found the term black more offensive than Negro. en.wikipedia.org EDIT: my underline for emphasis. I think you could be a racist going back at least to the 1970s.
