Why African American?
This is a pretty pointless thread but I was curious...

Why are black Americans called African Americans but white Americans are not called European Americans?

I have never heard a white American referred to as a European American. Any Americans shed some light on this?

I don't know. Don't call them that if you think it's dumb. Call them blacks.
