We say people are white, so why?

It's only racist if you use it negatively or stereotypically

I'm always afraid to because my school is a majority of black people and most of them take it the wrong way(I'm white)

The title, PREACH IT

Im black and I approve this message :)

Always hated this, its ok to say things like "hey white boy" but god forbid somebody said the reverse "hey black boy" or use the word black at all. Course there are a lot that think its fine and are cool about, good to all of you for being reasonable
