5. I know it's a term that I've heard before, recently.
AFAIK, it's an acceptable/PC thing to say. And, given the recnet racial tensions in the race, I don't think she'd slip up on something like that, anyway.

10. Yeah, I was also surprised when I read it the first time
but apparently, it's a perfectly acceptable thing to say.

7. There is nothing wrong with what she said...Remember the debate Kathy Hughes moderated a few months
back? It was known as the "black and brown" debate...it's fine.
