Why is it more politically correct to use the term "African American" than "Black?"
That makes sense. But what about people who are not necessarily descended from Africa? Should they still be referred to as African American?
It can be a bit tricky, as the term "African American" does generally refer to those of African descent living in the United States. However, it's important to note that there is a wide range of racial and ethnic identities within the Black community, and it's up to each individual to choose how they want to identify.
