hardwired-artificer said: According to the internet though, some countries still use the term, though for different reasons. From what I know in Canada, it’s only used in reference to an art movement and the era it was most used aka the 1910s - 1940s.
neightkelly said: I wouldn’t have known that.

ferretmochalatte reblogged this from mikerickson and added:

They laugh when I call them that, yet no one has given me the proper term. I guess they have the term “Asian” on lock...
