Make the word ginger a slur

The Issue

The definition of a slur is a derogatory or insulting term applied to particular group of people. The word ginger has been used an insult against only people of red hair. It is by definition a slur, but people do not recognize it as offensive. Please help. Also, red heads are predisposed to look younger and face workplace discrimination for that.
