True, so you prefer calling people's race by colours instead? Just asking.

I've been asked to use that instead. I'm not the anon who started the thread, though. I was just offering a possible reason.

Oh I see. Because you said that not all black people are from Africa, where else do they come from?

_{talking about colours makes remember that scene in Pink Panther 2 where the inspector thanked his Japanese friend, "Thank you, my little yellow friend!"}

It depends on how you define black. There are populations that look much the same as those from Africa, except they are from certain parts of Asia, Australia, and particularly the Pacific Islands.

Sorry to intrude,
I think it's because the term african american seem to design black american only, so it's almost imply that Africa is a black continent which it's not the case. For example a american of Moroccan origin should be call african american as well...

......I really want to know if anyone in this thread is actually black. =.=;
Like really.
I want to know.

Technically, calling someone black is better than african-american. That term would fit African people that are born in the US- as in, they're parent or grandparents moved over here. As....most seem to take it as a personal offense when you call them black. ~~Again, based on observation~~

...Not only that, but the majority of black people are mixed...so....I guess black is more defined as someone: some sort of African + Anything else.

.....

My opinion as black!anon orz

Well like said the britanon in Europe we say black, mixed etc. I though that in America the term black was used most of the time as well, without pejorative meanning.
Hope you understand my english >_<

I understand you just fine. ^_^

And yes, its pretty much the same over here.

Hi Black!Anon! I, too, am black, but not anon!

--btw, were you the one who took offense to my portrayal of Seychelles? If so, let's discuss!

I want to empower her as a character, not insult her :)
