Re:Actually... (Score 1)

I would not expect any of the words you mentioned to come up in a thesaurus under "black". How is Word to know when I type in "black" that I mean "a black person", and not "black" in it's literal sense? Nine out of ten times I'll be writing something like, "the night was black", or "the kitten was black as night".

Careful there, automatically using a color to characterize a race or any other group of people will get you going down a road you don't want to travel.
