I do...guess im different

I just say black. African American wouldn't make sense since I'm about 400 years removed from Africa. There's no cultural connection there other than skin color.

Co effing sign I agree and with that post and it came from a White guy judging by the username. I simply refer to myself as a Black man I have never been to Africa and don't plan on going anytime soon it was simply my ancestors home. Negro means black in Spanish as well. I'm a Black American man.

America is a continent, not a fucking country. That's why I hate saying African American. That sounds so fake. I just say that I'm African. I think people say that they are African American just to disassociate themselves with being African.

 

[shtoopid]

culturally you american. the only thing african about you is your skin

There's no such thing as a black person, only people with different shades and tones of brown skin.

 

[nuri]

I'm black. I'm not an African American.

 

[kentuckywildcat]
