I'm sorry Curly, but when did any Indians, Native American or actual Indians, become known as Black? If your 'great, great, greats' are Indians then you are not considered Indian by the U.S. census bureau. All 'Black' people originated in Africa, so technically if the majority of your bloodline is 'Black' or whatever, you are African American. By the way, I've never seen a 'Black' person & I strongly doubt that if you have so much 'Indian' blood you are 'Black'. Thanx.

Actually people did put him down for the remark he made.
But I agree with you that when it concerns AAs, the responses are greater. That has to do with our society AND some other cultures that do not even live in this country but want to find fault with it.

because the issue of racism against AA's has been a long battle in our country. But with the immigration and gay marrage on the battle front it will be a long time before it is widely accepted that those types of comments are unaceptable.

I would really like it if you would not address all black people as AA's. I'm a black woman and not all black people want to be addressed as African Americans. Some black people derive from other cultures. If you wish to be addressed as an African American, then I totally respect that. But I'm a Black Woman/Female and I really damn proud of it. My ancestors did not derive from Africa but more so the Reservation, and although my great great greats are Indians, I still think of myself as a Black woman because black people are at the head of the melting pot. We just trickle it down sweetie! (I have a smiley face, because I'm very proud of this)!
