A black man is called African because of his skin color but he lives and was born in America. That’s pretty racist towards him because he sees his race of being American.
No, it's not
How the fuck is that "racist"
He's an African American
So he’s from Africa and America at the same time?
His ancestry comes from Africa
European and African are not very specific
Yeah
So what do we call Aztec people? American?
Aztec
See thats just racist
No, it's not
They prefer to be called that
Egypt people are called African because they are in AFRICA
Racism is discrimination based on prejudice or thoughts of superiority
That's not what I'm doing
Why do black people have to be labeled African. That’s just a race term to distinguish what they are. Pretty racist.
No it's not. It's to distinguish between white americans and black americans, and asian americans etc
It's literally just a term we use
To describe someone
If I wanted to be racist I'd use the word "ni**er"
Or negroid
tbh I would go as far to say that calling anyone anything other then "human" is racist
Ok so
Say someone commits a crime
Describe his appearance
"human"
Wow
Very specific
Lmao
case solved
The second they become American citizens
They stopped being African anything
So what’s the problem with calling African Americans “Black Americans” if European americans are called “ White Americans”
Look, you're reading too much into a term not intended to be offensive at all. In fact it is was created to avoid racism
Exactly I am excavating a racist ideology
It replaced nasty words like "ni**er"
And negro
Globalized racism is a result of race terms in the scientific community
Call them black Americans of you want dude
