Maybe we could avoid using that term?

Agreed. Yeah it’s a known term with history but hey, you don’t want to know what my grandmother used to call Brazil nuts.

I know what she would have called them, although I don’t remember why I know that.

Glad to say I didn’t know that.
For fellow ignorami, Wikipedia’s Brazil nut entry spells it out.

Yeah sorry. I was making an uneccesarily pointed example of casual racism that people don’t see as racist in the moment – but in retrospect, well, ick. My apologies for putting that example in people’s heads.
