I agree here. I see no racism in calling someone black or asian or hispanic. I get really irritated when people refuse to describe someone by race.
"Which one is he? Well, you know. he's tall and he has brown eyes. I think he was wearing a blue coat." "You mean the only black guy in the entire building?" "yes, that one"
Irritating as shit. Just say, "the black guy". it's not an insult. He's black. it's not racist to notice someone's race.
