Finden Sie das Wort "farbig" für dunkelhäutige Menschen auch unpassend? Sie sind doch nicht bunt. Es existiert sogar die Bezeichnung "maximal pigmentiert". Dazu ein Gedicht aus Poetry Library.
"Coloured
When I was born, I was black.
When I grew up, I was black.
When I get hot, I am black.
When I get cold, I am black.
When I am sick, I am black.
When I die, I am black.
When you were born, You were pink.
When you grew up, You were white.
When you get hot, You go red.
When you get cold, You go blue.
When you are sick, You go purple.
When you die, You go green.
AND YET YOU HAVE THE CHEEK TO CALL ME COLOURED!!!
