There was a term used years ago to designate repairs that were made
from available material that may, or may not, have been designed for
the job.
When one considers the demands of a politically correct society would
the term now be African-American-rigged?

Then you were wrong as usual. The term you meant to use is...
"Jury rigging refers to makeshift repairs or temporary contrivances,
made with only the tools and materials that happen to be on hand."
