Since it is no longer politically correct to refer to blacks as blacks,
Negros, or Coloreds, I suggest that Jo launches a massive letter-writing
campaign against such organizations as the National Association for the
Advancement of COLORED People and the United NEGRO College Fund to
instruct them that they will either change the offending word to
African-American or suffer a massive lawsuit by right-thinking African-
Americans in this country.
Also, we will no longer allow Haitians and Jamacians to refer to themselves
as such. If they are black, they will be referred to as African-Americans.
