: Millions of Americans, who were born here identify themselves as Italian American, Irish American, Arab American.. I don't see what the problem is.
If a black person is actually descendent from Africa, then that's cool....but to refer to all black people collectively as "african american" makes no sense as darker skin color doesn't mean you are from Africa. Read my response to Zeta.
