    Basically I think its ridiculous. They know nothing about Africa (those who have never been here), and, sad but true, they know nothing about diverse African cultures. America is a relatively new country compared to other countries, and most of its people originate from other countries, but they never call themselves French American, Irish American, etc. I also think in a way they are shortchanging themselves; they played an important part in building the country (via slavery), so they should stand up and own it. Anyway, we here in Africa dont really identify with them. To us, they are Americans, or Black Americans.
