Why do they call black people black or African American ?

It is just programmed politically correct insanity. The correct scientific name you are looking for is Negro. Somewhere along the way some idiot thought that had a negative connotation and wanted to sound more sensitive and started calling people colored. Then “colored” people decided that was negative too and they wanted to be called “black”. Then “black” people decided that too sounded negative and demanded to be called “African” even though Africa is a continent with many races and the overwhelming majority of people in America are born here not in Africa.

How about this? How about we call each other by name identify our origins by local birth and stop worrying about race? So, I’m Resister from Tennessee and you are CigarTigher from the internet. Deal?

why do people post avatars of their cleavage on a public forum?

cause it's just the way things are

The evil genious scientist black man of African color Doctor Yakub made Caulkasians from caulk, pink pigs and thin lipped rhesus monkeys. His experimints happened in the Caulkasian Mountains. These slaves were supposed to do our labor while we pursued greater goals. Yakub didnt realize that his invention would also have the tricknologys and that's why the Earth is Hell today!

........... WHAT?!

I am a Louisianian American lol.

you are completely right.

The place where you are born determines you race and nationality. I laugh at all the racist that always want to put labels on every other NON white.

My cleavage in barely showing. But, since you can see it I'll just change my picture. No biggie.

Technically Canadians are Americans

-------------------------------------------------------------​

I am not a specialist in this term, but I once did read
about mexican history, where they first called them selves
Americans (Americanos).

That is correct, since the term was used to identified
the spaniards suns borned in the new lands the new world.

In fact, the declaration of independence from the new
spaniard (borned in Mexico), refers like this:
AMERICANOS............... etc. etc.

So the term Americans was named first from and for
the Mexican population; at first Mexico, was called from
the new americans (new spaniards) ¨The New Spain¨.
Then after in 1810 it was called ¨Mexico¨.

Conclouding, now all those that were borned in the Am-
erican Continent, are Americans acording to them selves.
But if there are native, indians or natural that call
the Continent in other names, that goes for them.
Thank you.
Thanks for the history lesson.

No dont change it


It does things to me dammit

You just dont know

Caucasoid, Negroid, and Mongloid.
Negroid encompasses all black people of African descent, Caucasoid encompasses all "white" people of caucasian descent (Europeans and some middle easterns), Mongloids encompasses all Asian people of north, south, and east asian descent.

Maybe because there's still hope they will go back home.

To be politically correct.It started with clinton.

You must be a young one,it started long before Clinton

They are called Black because of the black pigment " melanin" in the skin. Black folks have higher concentrations than white folks. But yes, the "white" folks ( Caucasian ) have melanin in smaller quantities. That is the stuff that allows them to tan.

Negroes are also black with the highest amounts of melanin.. ( same root word for melanoma). But Negroid is a race.

All negroes are black. But. Not all black people are negroid.

People with black skin like jews , arabs,, Indians, Native Americans,Eskimo,European dark skinned people are Caucasian.

Is this what is confusing you Bunkie?

Black is NOT a race.

There are 3 races. Mongoloid, Negroid, Caucasoid.

As to African American, I have no clue. 99% probably have never set foot in Africa.

Can you explain this to me since you seem like you know your science lol.
Someone explained it to me from school and said that I look Mongloid. I get called Native American,Black, Blackanese, Filipino. I get Hawaiian when I wear a flower. I also bruised easily, when I was younger I used to get sunburn on my cheeks, I turn red when I get out of the shower. Yes the water is hot lol.
