I am so not here to dictate what phrases people use to refer to their own ethnicity. I knew a girl once who was like, “I’m not African-American; I’m black.” Even though most people would have used “African-American” because that was what was considered proper.
So some people use the word “brown” while others don’t. Some people don’t like to hear the word “brown” because it’s another way of saying “darkies,” which is not appropriate in my book.
