There should be some sort of announcement made when these phrases go out of fashion and suddenly become offensive. People may call it ignorance but unless you have cause to use the specific phrase on a regular basis why would you check? And who do you check with??

And what words should be used in their place?
 
This has come up before, when ChrisFilter correctly pointed out that it's a horrible, massively offensive, disgusting phrase that doesn't belong in the mouth of any right-thinking person.

But we shouldn't use mixed-race because it implies that they are a muddied race, mixed up and not a whole.

Probably.

Maybe ethnically unsure?
 
Is fuzzy-wuzzy still acceptable these days - it's so difficult to stay up to date with what's politically correct :102:
