“Attention to all blacks who plan to vote for Trump,” the sign outside New Era Baptist Church reads, “you are an ignorant stupid negro.” The other side says, “Warning African Americans: A vote for Trump will put Blacks back to picking cotton.”

    Uh, the N- word in the title is misleading. Do people blot out the term when talking about UNCF, too?

        Not that I’m advocating for bringing terms back - I realize certain things fall out of fashion - but I do wonder how the titles, and the content, of MLK’s speeches are discussed. I noticed for a time that the term “black” was also seemingly teed up for a similar treatment, by the way and that did not happen.

        Going by what I guess is a new norm, it’s the United N---- College Fund. They used to do spots on television way back.
