"Mavro" is a Greek word meaning "black" or "dark". When it is applied to people, it simply refers to dark or black people—it is neither derogatory nor insensitive. FYI, "mavro" is the masculine form, "mavra" is the feminine form. The plural is "mavri".
Man, there are some poorly-informed half-literate idiot morons on this site. A mavro's intellect puts theirs to shame!
