Petition Action

Change ethnicity classification of people of African & Caribbean descent in UK.

Petition Details

I believe Africans and Caribbeans should not be referred to as Black British with a focus on the word "Black".

The right term should be either African British or Caribbean British just like we have Asian British etc.

Additional Information

The word 'Black' has a negative connotation to it and should be removed from any reference made to and about Africans or Caribbeans.
