When do I use whites and white people, Asian and Asian people, black and black people.etc.

[@BreakingEnglish]

I advise against the use of "whites" "Asians" "Blacks" in order to describe a person's race or ethnicity because it turns a description of someone into a noun, which identifies them rather than describes them. Instead, to humanize them, you can use "white people" "black people" etc. When you know more specifics about a person's background, you can be even more specific, so instead of saying "Asian person," for someone who you know is Vietnamese, you could say a "Vietnamese person." I hope that helps
