Whats the context in which saying "boy" could be considered racist?"Historically, White people routinely described Black men as boys to suggest they weren't on equal footing with them. Both during and after enslavement, Black people weren't viewed as full-fledged people but as mentally, physically, and spiritually inferior beings to White people. Calling Black men 'boys' was one way to express the racist ideologies of yesteryear." COVxy posted... Boy seems like a weird thing to say if you are honestly trying to condescend about age.
