    He would be the first black to run a Spanish-language station.

    He would be the first black to run a Spanish-language station. At least in Houston.

    In England and in France people who are black are referred to as “black” not “Afrobritish” “Francoafrican”, Afroeuropean”, or some ridiculous euphemism like African-american.

      (Read the comment below, written by an English person living in England)

      The black people I interact with on a regular or semi-regular basis are called Samantha, Charles, Oye, Mary, Rich, Yag and Danny.

      We consider them individuals, whom we call by their names.

      On the rare occasions the discussion shifts to questions of race, society, politics and so on, we don’t use contorted labels such as African-whatever. We refer to them as “black people”.

      I am white. Samantha, Charles, Oye, Mary, Rich, Yag and Danny don’t call me “white”. They call me by my name. They rightly expect (and receive) the same treatment in reverse.

      Thank goodness we don’t live in a racist society.
