I'll have to find it, it's more in an essay where he tries to wrestle with the terms "negro" and "black".
You can do what you want, but I think fighting against political correctness is beating around the bush. All of these terms and their attendant trauma cannot be erased. You cannot make people ignore history and "move on" without some commensurate restitution. Robbing an entire culture of their identity (Nigerian, Congolese, West African, Etc) and profiting off of it creates an imbalance that must be righted.
Same with every group that has been abused for a bag of money. Natives, Latinos, Asians, Etc. If you don't find an authentic way to compensate their kids, then you have no moral ground to stand on when you argue that double standards disappear.
It's like doctors treating symptoms of cancer.
People do the best they can to make the best out of a bad situation. They put on the best face they can despite their trauma.
Diving deep into the pool of the term "black" can be a tool for survival. But it doesn't change the history of the term, it's inferences, or it's continued complexity.
It continues to be a deadly term. It arrives to us as a historical misnomer that erases their original history. The term "white" is similar in the way that it erases the things about your history and culture that are authentic and tied to an actual country.
