According to a group of journalists at The New York Times, the number of permissible racial words and phrases just shrank by nine (actually, the number is far higher than that, as you’ll see).
The growing list of offensive terms held up for scorn by the Times journalists now includes: ethnic, person of color, illegal immigrant, urban, half-____ (like “half-black” of “half-white”), non-____ (like “non-Jew” or “non-white”), fit in (like “Will they fit in?”), exotic, and diversity hire.
