Edit: Guys, watch the video. He clearly said “college.” I am sorry for posting misinformation; I didn’t watch the video first, and just assumed it was legit 😕.

    In South Africa it’s pretty normal; very weird the first few times I heard it though.

      Ah yes, South Africa, bastion of non racist glory! No one uses the word colored in a non racist context in North America. Brian Kilmeade is from New York.

      The first word out of this dudes mouth to describe a group of black women being addressed by another black woman was by referring to them as colored. That’s called showing your ass, he just showed us his slimy little racist ass.

          Thank you!!! And when was the NAACP formed. During segregation, where that word takes all it’s American context.

        People refer to themselves as it there. I did find it odd originally, it’s not to do with racism though.
