Hey, what's wrong with "American," pure and simple? Can we PLEASE get past categorizing everyone by the color of their skin or the origins of their DNA?

"i'm basically African American and basically Black. top?" what's African American and Black? African American and black are an identical race. definite, Black individuals do have a admixture of their blood yet they're nevertheless black. "in case you evaluate African individuals to some others, like Haitians then as a collection its 2 different seems!" this is faux and also you should have not considered all Haitians. i'm Nigerian. human beings imagine that i'm Black American. definite, human beings look different because human beings have different effective factors yet you are able to't tell variations now and again. basically by potential of searching at someone you are able to't tell what they're. there has been events after I mistakened some Nigerians ad Black individuals.

Why do we have to refer to anybody as anything. Why not just American or a Michigander or a New Yorker, etc. People want to be equal and be treated as equals, but we seem to put labels on everything, which make people stand out from other people.

That is the exact reason racism and segregation continue to exist. Why is it necessary to always refer to someone by race and not just their names...
Do people refer to George Washington as white, or to Jennifer Lopez as Puerto Rican, or to Frank Sinatra as Italian?
when it comes down to it, we are all racially mixed...There is no pure race.

Tiger Wood's dad is not even full black which would make Tiger mostly Thai, but they can be whatever they want to be.

Because people like you say 'If you got one drop of black blood, you're black!"
That's Why!
Again. Why do people such as yourself, who hate blacks, so much spend so much time asking about them? Why the hell do you care? A true racist wouldn't.
