My sister birth papers say negro, mines say negroid, this only seems to bother uptight people, I am proud to be a negro

It's an outdated term is the point. I'm proud to be a geezer, but that doesn't mean 'geezer' can be used in official modern terminology related to older folks. Maybe it's a case of the officially-used outdated term not bothering just a few people at all.
