Thank you for your sincere response. I never really got why we hear the term African-American but never African-(Name another country).
True and I see were your coming from most black people in other countries either have Afro (nationality) I think that black Americans should be called Afro American I wouldn't mind being called that.
I think that term was used in the 1960's and 70's but somehow fell out of usage.
What afro American?
Yes.
I didn't know that I thought people still called blacks negros(black) but I see why most blacks don't like being called negro.
Why? Because it's crazy how some English people are obsessed with a Spanish word. And how it sounds is to close to the other word.
But I guess I learned something new today.
IIN I wonder why black people in the US are called African-Americans?
