[QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri: [QB] The thing about the odious word "negro" is that racist and erocentic writings from the 15th to the 20th centuries make the disclaimer "black but not negro" overly frequent. Negro, at least in the languages of Euro people deeply involved in the transAtlantc slave trade, takes on the meaning of "black thing" as in the commodity slave. As such the word long ago lost its initial meaning as a color descriptor taking on the meaning "any African peoples who were provided as slaves to the New World." Increasingly, non-African black peoples ceased being labeled negro just as now they are not even any longer referred to as blacks. Indians would be the prime example. Does anyone remember Kipling derogated Gunga Din by the epithet nigger? [/QB][/QUOTE]
