When my kids were very little we lived in Center City, Philadelphia. Plenty of blacks around us. Not for any particular reason, we didn't call them anything and waited to see what the kids would do with that. They just called them brown people. Like reporting about their day in pre-school they would say "This brown boy..." Also very high "fades" were popular then, and our kids called them "cup-cake heads."
It is really stupid, the left vs right argument is individualism versus NPCism. In NPCism, you are to act as your set of characteristics and by your programming, you can’t develop, change, or have something unique outside of those characteristics. In individualism, we recognize individuality and think that being black is not a personality type.
