A term wrongly used to give identity to, any black person in America.
African American was actually meant to give an ETHNIC identity to blacks who are descendants of (Black) African slaves who were brought to the United States. This term excludes Black Jamaicans, Nigerians, Kenyans, Black Dominicans,etc.....
SOME Whites, and sometimes other non-blacks are afraid to call us black, so in any professional setting they will say African American. Other whites claim it's unfair, because they won't get called European American, but really it's the same thing as calling whites from Italy Italian, and Asians from China Chinese. Hell nobody complains about East Asians being called Asian, even though not all Asians are of the same race.
Most African Americans can not trace our African roots back to any particular country/tribe so Africa is used, as the substitute.

Oh and that guy who said it more offensive to be called AA than N*gger is a complete dumbass
Bob: Barack Obama is the first African American president

The current, acceptable, feminist-certified, polically correct way to refer to anyone of african descent. Designed to eliminate any unintended racial tension in this hypersensitive, perpetually offended society we've become where people just can't lighten the fuck up anymore.
That's not a poor black guy dressed up as Santa Claus, that's an economically disadvantaged african american exercising the right to achieve monetary compensation by commercially benefiting from the eurocentrically imposed midwinter festival"

Pan-Africanism is the social and cultural movement of the unification of all individuals with African descent or origin no matter if they lived in or outside of Africa.

The idea is for all those who are African to come together, collaborate, and bring strength back into the people of Africa who have been exploited, abused, enslaved, murdered, and torn apart by the Europeans for far to long.
The creator of this movement was W.E.B Du Bois with the help of Delany, Crummel, and Blyden.
How to become a member:

Must be a person of true and honest character who have shown that they are committed to the education, influence, inspiration, and cause of the movement's goals.
Pan-Africanism:

Black Brotha: I heard you're a Pan-Africanist?
Black Sista: I sure am and what about it?
Black Brotha: Word? I know that's right! Can I join the cause?
Black Sista: Of course you can join , let's unify our people together✊🏾

The result of when a women gets on her knees to pull your pants down and as they are lowering the sudden release of pantaloon pressure springs up your penis into the womans eye. As she flys backwords from such a force, the male puts his hands on his waist, arches his back and laughs towards the heavens.
