New language advice from NCVO
Just had an interesting email regarding the term Global Majoritythat they adopted last year. It is to replace ethnicity terms .Quote
"We use global majority in place of other terms you may have heard of, are currently using, or have previously used. This includes terms such as BAME (Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic), BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour), and ethnic minorities".
Looking online, I see lots of places taking it up , with one replacing BAME with GEM for Global Ethnic Majority.
I honestly cannot keep up with correct terminology
