Obama signs bill eliminating ‘Negro,’ ‘Oriental’ from federal laws
After it was unanimously passed with 380 votes, President Barack Obama signed H.R. 4238on Friday, which amends two federal acts from the ’70s that define “minorities” with terms that are now insensitive or outdated.
The Department of Energy Act has for decades described “minorities” as, “a Negro, Puerto Rican, American Indian, Eskimo, Oriental, or Aleut or is a Spanish speaking individual of Spanish descent.”
The new bill changes the language to, “Asian American, Native Hawaiian, a Pacific Islander, African American, Hispanic, Puerto Rican, Native American, or an Alaska Native.” There’s also similar language in the Local Public Works Capital Development and Investment Act.
The bill was sponsored by Rep. Grace Meng, D-NY, with 74 Democratic co-sponsors and two Republican ones, who focused on the word “Oriental.”
“[Oriental] is an insulting term that needed to be removed from the books, and I am extremely pleased that my legislation to do that is now the law of the land,” Meng said in a statement.
The U.S. Census never used the word Oriental, which became associated in the U.S. with exoticism and Asian-American stereotypes in the 20th century. But it dropped “Negro” from identities in 2013, after people during the 2010 count said they were offended by it.
The director at the time said 56,000 people during research in the 1990s written under “other race” that they identified as Negro. So the census had continued to include the word in its 2000 count, and also in 2010, but by then people were raising concerns.
“I apologize to them. I am confident that the intent of my colleagues in using the same wording as Census 2000 was to make sure as many people as possible saw words that matched their self-identities. Full inclusiveness was the goal,” Robert Groves, former director of the U.S. Census Bureau, wrote. “The race question has often changed over the decades, as the country has changed and racial terms have evolved.”

..inilah prinsip & elemen undang2 anti rasisme, yakni lebih PEMBELAAN pada puak MINORITI,
yang sepatutnya diterapkan juga di negara yang ada banyak MINoRITI seperti Malaysia ini,
Singaporn telah amalkan prinsip ini, buktinya seorang pompuan Cina (MAJORITI) telah dihukum berat kerana hina Mulayu (MINORITI)
diharap, di Meleis ini akan lenyap kata2 keramat para macai seperti ini:
- "bila Mulayu kutok Cina dikata rasis, tapi kenapa Cina buat yg sama tak dikata rasis"...
