    Why are black people in America called African-American and not black?

    I think we need to go back to the mulatto, quadroon, and octoroon classification system, personally.

    Makes more sense than referring to every person with a bit pigmentation to them as 'black' tbh.

    This is way too much to follow. Just stick to white and not-white.

    Because people are ignorant of the fact that many black people come fro the Caribbean?

    And those people are Afro-Carribean.

    Read a book and figure out how black people got there.

    Everybody came from Africa at some point dummy. If we are going to bother differentiating between people of differing continental/national origins, we may as well do it correctly you stupid fvck.

    Read a book about the origin of the species fvcko.

    White people think "black" is offensive, so they use they say "African-American".

    Jemele Hill and Chris Broussard must have been the Affirmative Action picks, cause those two can't speak a lick of proper English. Nothing but ebonics twang coming from those two.

    Broussard speaks proper English, he just don't speak it well. He is kind of a mush mouth with an annoying accent.
