Someone was telling me that “oriental” is a bad word now. Is that true?

"In the U.S., the term 'Oriental' has been used to reinforce the idea that Asians were/are forever foreign and could never become American. These ideas helped to justify immigration exclusion, racial discrimination and violence, political disfranchisement and segregation." Lee also claimed that continued use of the term "perpetuates inequality, disrespect, discrimination and stereotypes towards Asian Americans." - http://www.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed...nap-story.html

i used to think wetback was an acceptable term for mexicans. I thought mexicans was a deragatory term. THen again I grew up in Texas and drew a gun on illegal immigrants crossing our family hunting property at age 8
