Talk:Living Colour: Difference between revisions

The "Miscellaneous" section seems like a halfhearted attempt to sidestep the [[Trivia_Section|no trivia section]] guideline. It's still a trivia section, even if you call it "miscellaneous." <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/71.227.113.171|71.227.113.171]] ([[User talk:71.227.113.171|talk]]) 22:20, 17 September 2007 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

 

 

I would like to dispute the categorization of the members of this band as "all-African American". For starters, what the author is attempting to indicate there is something along the lines of "all-(African American)", so that's not really written correctly. The members of the band are certainly NOT "all-African", as the text implies as written. And that's the second problem. While I recognize the widely accepted political correctness of the term "African American" in the US, it starts to become a little ridiculous here, since the members of the band have a primary culture which is from neither of those places. You'll notice that the band grew out of the "Black Rock Coalition". Given that, I think it would be clearest and most appropriate to refer to them here as "black". <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/67.188.1.126|67.188.1.126]] ([[User talk:67.188.1.126|talk]]) 20:23, 15 August 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
