I wrote this comment on another thread a few days ago.
BAME is an acronym which doesn't sit well with the people it's describing.
My son in law loathes it.
And I've read a few articles where people are explaining why it's not appreciated
A couple of days ago I was watching Jeremy Vine and the brilliant Nana Akua was saying how much she hated it as well.

Today it's being reported that The Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities find the word BAME unhelpful and redundant

So hopefully it will be confined to history sooner rather than later.
