Possibly. Only a few ways to know for certain. Find the nearest black person, call them that, and see how it goes. Take notes. And photos of the results.
Not sure exactly why "negro" went out of style, but perhaps it had something to do with the fact that by racist white Southerners, the pronunciation of it was very similar to the pronunciation of the other N-word?

MLK would be very sad to see how a large number of African Americans live today. They still are often limited to the yuckiest neighborhoods in most cities. Not much has changed since 1968.

Oh, all black people are angels or turning their life around, especially the young males. I am quite sure that the photo I take will be of some fine upstanding citizen wearing an angelic smile. I will write that up in my field report and submit it and the picture to the local university's anthropology and sociology departments.

I was born into a middle-class family in the early 50s and raised children who are middle-class themselves.
"Black," as we reclaimed it in the 60s, was a political statement just like the Afro hairstyle. It was reclaimed as a political opposition to the "white" that white people called themselves proudly even though they aren't really "white" any more than black people are truly "black." "Black" was a bold way of throwing aside the euphemisms and mealy-mouthisms of "colored" and "negro." "Black" was "in your face."
Black Power was "in your face", but black is merely a color.

They might have a violent reaction. As we all are depending on the circumstances.
