I don't personally know a single IRL black person who uses the term African-American.

only sociology professors and the like

*EtA: they probably say black when i'm not around, amongst other [insert whatever term this thread deems acceptable] people

I knew the hardcore black students and professors at Cornell who lived and worked in the Africana Studies department.

They used black. The Cornell Black Student Union is called the Cornell Black Student Union. I get e-mails soliciting donations from the Black Alumni Association.

I'm pretty sure AA is now a white people thing.
