People Want The Spanish Word For Black Changed Because They Think ...
Maybe your like
There’s currently a debate raging as to whether a teenager should be allowed to call her dog Negro.
Actually, some people are so annoyed Twitter user @rebeca_macias18 named her missing hound the Spanish word for black they have suggested it should be changed.
But the anger towards her seemed a bit unfair as she’s from Mexico, so speaks Spanish, and was not trying to offend anyone.

Some social media users argued she should have known how insensitive the word, which has been used to disparage black people in America, was.
This Twitter user seemed to suggest the word should be changed even though it wasn’t supposed to refer to a person’s skin colour

There was more positive than negative though, with a lot of people wishing her good luck in finding her dog.
The mutt has yet to be found.
