Man, would my face ever be red if I called someone an African American and they turned out to be Jamaican.
Yeah man, thats a good point, I didnt even think of that.
People are so rediculous though. I heard this story on the radio where this white guy from Africa was aplying for a job and he marked "African American" and they made him change it to "Caucasian"

Its called a witch hunt, we have tons of them throughout history; whether its a nazi witch hunt, a terrorist witch hunt, or a racist witch hunt its always simply accusing en-mass trying to get them to crack and expose them for the obviously evil twisted people they are.
Because whether they act upon their actions simply isnt good enough, the truth must be dragged out, exposed, and then harshly punished; because not acting on something is simply a racists way of blending into society. We must punish them for things they dont do, and we most definately probably arent simply looking for handouts.

Seconded. Do not blame him though, his girlfriend just hooked up with an Africa-American.

African is a goegraphical and politcal term.if you were born on the continent your Afrcan simple as that.Your nationality is what ever country you were borrn in.Black is just a term to describe people belonging to the black race.African American is very incorrect because it only emcompasses people of the race of being black.but there are many white and brown people who live in Africa and they are just as much African American.

Actually black is the lack of colors.

The only thing wrong with the term Negro is that it has been associated with mid-20th century racism, and saying that will associate you with that. It's just like the Japanese flag from WWII- it used to have the red sun rays, but it was changed because that flag was associated with the warfare and hatred of WWII.
