Race of Defendant must not be Mentioned in Massachusetts Jury Room

If someone is bl*ck, you must not mention it. A Massachusetts jury convicted a bl*ck man of murdering a white woman but there is now a move afoot to have the verdict appealed because some jury members were "racist".

What made them racists?

Apparently, during jury deliberations, one juror referred to the defendant as "an intimidating big bl*ck guy" and another referred to him as ""200-pound bl*ck guy".

So mentioning the obvious is now racist in Massachusetts. Why am I not surprised? Details here
