I'm black and I'm honestly kind of bitter that it finally caught on (I first saw it used in journal articles from the early 90s but it's probably been around before then) but it's becoming widely used by other "POCs" so I give up. I think I don't like it because I live in the American south and it's a little too close to "colored" for me. My grandma especially was alarmed when she came across it because she comes from a time when "colored" was thrown around frequently as a hurtful slur

Late but...if it's any consolation where I live [in the south] PoC isn't a term I've ever heard used. If someone is going to refer to someone else's race they'll use "black/hispanic/asian/white/etc". So there are at least parts of the US that don't use the term?

Part of it probably is because the term *is* close to "colored" and...well. Yeah - that does make people edgy. But it could also be because you'd be describing over half the population here if you just said "PoC" too.

Yeah, I don't really hear it irl very often (a few times on my college campus by some of my professors is about it). I mostly just see it online and a couple of times on television, which is where my grandma heard it. I think we were watching some historical program and some expert being interviewed mentioned it and she was a bit taken aback until I explained that it's considered a pc term by a lot of people nowadays. eh, what can you do?
