A few weeks ago a couple friend of ours had a baby. While we were visiting them in the hospital a co-worker of hers came up with his wife and their little guy. I would say he is in his late 20's to early 30's. While they were talking it turned out that their son was born in the exact same room in the exact same hospital. He then asked our friend who her nurse was and after she answered he said, "We had a nice colored gal."
Now I've heard my Grandfather and people of the "older" generation using the term "colored people" but I haven't heard it from a 30 something....ever. I tend to think the term is a little on the racist side, but what say the rest of you? He really caught me off guard when he said it in full stride like it was everyday common language.
