Don't tell many black people that here..that they're so removed from Africa that they shouldn't Identify as African-America they'll cry or get angry. Some people are fine with the classification, some black people are not 😛 @spursfan82

2018-11-26 19:49:04 UTC  

it's an inaccurate way to determine race thouhj

2018-11-26 19:49:11 UTC  

I am thinking like a drunk person without being drunk. i think is just because i aint use to be out of school.

2018-11-26 19:49:28 UTC  

African, if you are born in africa, you are native.

2018-11-26 19:49:46 UTC  

native (nāˈtĭv)►
adj. Existing in or belonging to one by nature; innate: native ability.
adj. Being such by birth or origin.
adj. Being one's own because of the place or circumstances of one's birth: our native land.

You're still an American native if ur African American, you just come from a black descent.

2018-11-26 19:50:53 UTC  

It's not a Nationality it's the thing you fill in by the race category on a questionnaire.

2018-11-26 19:51:02 UTC  

no i disagree by definition, african refers to someone born in africa, if you born in america you are american lol

2018-11-26 19:51:22 UTC  

I guess it can be a nationality too

2018-11-26 19:51:23 UTC  

I am African then, i was born here so i will say i am African on the YES form and sue them for discriminating, i am unemployed seeing that i am done with school.

2018-11-26 19:51:49 UTC  

why do you have to make it about race lol, a canine is a canine, whether it be a pitbull, german shepherd, border collie or husky.. It's just subspecies, same with humans

2018-11-26 19:51:55 UTC  

@spursfan82 african american

2018-11-26 19:51:55 UTC  

@Meerkat_RSA When they ask you where your from feel free to say African lol, that's not the point im making

2018-11-26 19:52:16 UTC  

Was Elon not born in SA?

2018-11-26 19:52:25 UTC  

@Sheamus It's because the term African American is too describe your race

2018-11-26 19:52:25 UTC  

yes

2018-11-26 19:52:34 UTC  

Elon is from Pretoria IIRC

2018-11-26 19:52:50 UTC  

Yeah so native african then is what Elon is

2018-11-26 19:53:11 UTC

2018-11-26 19:53:18 UTC  

True

2018-11-26 19:53:36 UTC  

@spursfan82 in the past it was the n word now it is african american, so if i moved to america in the 50's would i be a nig...

2018-11-26 19:53:59 UTC  

No, niger is latin for the colour black

2018-11-26 19:54:13 UTC  

No ni means the colour black

2018-11-26 19:54:49 UTC

2018-11-26 19:55:04 UTC  

it's not used as a slur lol, it's factually correct

2018-11-26 19:55:25 UTC  

"context" lol

2018-11-26 19:55:31 UTC  

The way in which we classify people here can get complicated, and it can even be something different when filling out medical info.

2018-11-26 19:55:32 UTC  

whatever happened to the context memes

2018-11-26 19:56:09 UTC

We use African-American, Native-American, Americans, and then we have the other classifications like Caucasian, Asian, Black/African-American, Hispanic, Indigenous and other pretty much.
