Line in the movie that bothers me


The owner of the diner in 1955 tells the black worker he has that a colored person can never be a mayor. I am paraphrasing here a bit but the point is the same. Thats very troubling they wrote this line in the movie. And to label the person as colored nonetheless.

He said a colored boy could never be mayor, but Goldie did become mayor. So this is a huge plot hole.

Its not a plot hole. Its a error in the characters judgement. Why do so many people still constantly misuse that word
