I would only be trashing your concept of reality, you see black and white
no in-between

basically it would mean trying to change the way you think, no one can do that but you

Realy?
Are you trying to be condescending?
It dosen't suit you.

I am willing to listen to your reasoning.
Please explain?

Peace brotherdoobie

African-American?

What the hell does that mean? That is a politically correct creation to designate an American with minority status.

She is an American who happens to be a Negro. Your wife is "black".

Really what part of Africa?

What African language does she speak?

What African cultural food do you eat?

What African religion does she abide by?

Or is she just simply an American, who happens to be black?

I hope you are getting the gist of my comments. She is about as African as I am.

huh? What is your point?

My wife prefers to be called African-American over black, although she has no knowledge of her african ancestry. It is politically correct.

Yes, my wife is black.  Yes my wife is colored.  Yes my wife is African-American.  Yes my wife in non-white.  Yes my wife is negro.  Whatever term you prefer, dude.

I think "colored" would be the more politically correct...at least according to the NAACP site
(National Association for the Advancement of Colored People)

My point is that she is American, and that the term African-American is a nonsensical term coined by politicians that thought that this would sound better than Citizenship: American, Race: Negro.

I have to retire for the night, you may read this link if you wish. My point is that I do not like political correctness.

You can read my 3rd&4th posts in this thread, as they are most relevant to what I am saying, or you can not bother as I am just expressing a pet peeve of mine. I am Hobbes in this thread.

Here is a snipet:

The only commonality is the color of skin and that is not a culture. So two black friends here, identifying with each other based on color, may have been sworn enemies in that vast continent of Africa or more likely their initial cultures were very different from one another.
