I'll be damned.
I just realized that I've been using the terms 'blackfolks' and 'whitefolks' for years beyond their invention. I used them to distinguish Americans who considered themselves to be black and white for the purposes of anti-racist activism. This has carried over in my discussions at Cobb, which is not aimed at race in that way at all. Wow.
I will make the change. It has been inappropriate and probably misleading.
