Get the african americanmug. an African American is a light skinned brother who is tired of being called a Mexican and is angry at the world. there is no mistaking the two when you see a black man you call him black if you see a sorta black man you call him African American.
True African Americans have very unusual names which are often the result of the Favorite food and or the first thing the mother sees while she is giving birth. EX:(Velveeta, Dasanni, and sanders.) while a Black man is given a traditional name like EX:( Tom *click* *click* jones) there is also a chart to determine the corecct term for a NIGGER yes i said NIGGER get over it crackers we were all thinking it.
this chart will help you identify your black friend the higher the number the less black you are. each of which result in a deferent term of communication for the black man.
1.The only thing seperating you from midnight is 11:59.(NIGGA)
2.your dad has slept more white women since you were born than you can count on both hands and feet.(HOMIE)
3.if the lights go off really quick you turn invisible for a few seconds.(BLACK)
4. you like fried chicken BUT you also like mayonnaise on it.(AFRICAN AMERICAN)
5.black kid with an afro.(AFRO-KIN)
6. you would rather watch a sport than play it.(BROTHA)
7. you like Eminem nuff said (HO-HO)
8. you have mostly white friends. (WATERMELON)

Get the African Americanmug. Is a person of African descent ,meaning ancestors were of African heritage, that is born in America. America is where the individual was born therefore that makes them "American" as well as a African because of their roots. It is the political correct term of how to identify a person of African descent that is born in America.
Carlton's great grandmother was from Africa, but he was born on American soil to two African American parents that were born in the United States. Therefore he is African American.

Get the African Americanmug. A word mistakingly used everyday. Im a white guy, and I could technically be a african american if I was born in Africa, and thus, immigrate to America.
Though black peoples roots are in Africa, they themselves were not born there. So that just makes them American, like everyone else born here.

I have a mostly german/scottish/irish/ french background, my roots are in europe, thus am I european American? Nah, im just American, because I was born here.

Get the African-Americanmug. 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
Terrance: Nope, he's the first Kenyan American president.

Get the African Americanmug. 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"
