They should have just followed the NAACP's lead and stick with the politically incorrect label.

I think "colored people" will come back into style, because "people of color" is so close to it and makes it non-derogatory. And this would be great for the people who just stayed put. I had a boss once who was talking about "this colored guy", and I realized he was so backward that he was actually a number of politically incorrect labels behind.
