than African American because not all black people are from Africa. So it'd be annoying to constantly be put into the same group cause you have the same features.
But I don't like the word Black as a word. It gives me a bad image and I feel others feel the same.
If some white boy said "Mom, i'm dating a black girl" she'd get this image of this stereotypical ugly ass chick twerking and talking in slang.
If he simply said "Mom, i'm dating an african-american girl" she might think of a confident, pretty, well-spoken girl with beautiful chocolate skin.
timster I need some race advice, so at target we have the cell phone people that don't work for target but have their kiosk set up and anyways the cell phone guy is black and their have been times when he goes on break and someone comes looking for a phone who is also black and when he comes back he asks me to describe the customer, is it rude if I say "black" as part of the description? Usually I leave it out and say like tall blue shirt ect
shadowballer000 No why you so scared of us?? Would you be afraid to say Asian to an asian? Or white to a white guy? Black is just the ethnicity that you are using to describe him. Just say "A tall black man" and he won't think anything of it.
