베니가 쓴  colored가 어떤 느낌이냐면

백인들이 유색인종(황+흑인)하고 자신들하고 구분하려고 쓰기 시작한 말이라서 그 당시엔 세면대, 변기, 세탁기같은 것들에 white/colored 팻말을 달아서 나눠서 사용했고 (굳이 따지자면 너네랑 뭐 같이 쓰기 싫다 이런 의미고 colored전용은 당연히 white보다 낙후된 시설) 백인우월주의를 상기시키려고 쓰던 빼박 인종차별 단어. nigger까진 아니어도 그 아랫급 됨. 저 단어 나오면 주변 분위기 존나 싸-해짐ㅋㅋ 그걸 고등 교육 받았다는 탑위치에 있는 남자 배우가 무의식중에 썼다면 참ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 

+) Colored라는 단어자체가 차별과 편견속에서 나온 말임. 흑인노예를 부리던 시절 백인들이 N word처럼 쓰던 말ㅇㅇ 단어 자체의 문제가 아니라 사용 배경과 의도가 문제.  굳이 지칭하려면 인종차별적인 단어인 colored를 대체하기 위해 보통 people of color란 표현으로 사용함. 우리나라 말로는 다 유색인종으로 번역되는데 영어 어감으로는 아주 큰 차이가 있음. 사과 바로 했다고 하는 데 사과는 당연히 해야 하는 거. 안하는게 이상한거자나ㅋㅋ

선민의식과 무의식속의 우월같은 느낌
