GEN> Appropriate Subject Heading?

["Rita Kaikow (Oceanside High School)" <K12OCKZR@VAXC.HOFSTRA.EDU>]

We are being faced with the recurring issue of designated subject
classification for what years ago was indicated under the heading NEGROES with
appropriate sub-headings.

The question now is:  What subject headings are appropriate to replace this
category?  Or is the category still acceptable?

Over the years, it has been superseded by Blacks; African-Americans; etc.

But what is appropriate to use for a title that covers all?

TIA,
Rita
