What do you think of the label Cushitic?

[Xabeshi]

Should it be renamed?

In my opinion yes because of the biblical “the curse of Ham”. Extreme groups such as the Hebrew Israelites honestly believe we descend from his son called Cush and that we are cursed with black skin

astaghfirullah.

In my eyes, cushite is just a linguistic group. I don't think of it as an ethnicity. Naturally, we are related to other cushitic speakers but that is as far as it goes.

i just say "horn african" works better as it's a geographical landmass. "horn african and other communities similar to it" works when adding groups like the northern sudanese for example

I feel like I rarely heard that word until Abiy came into office.
