re: Your mind will wrap itself in knots if you ponder the term 'African American'

First off I'd like to say that I'm flattered that you take up so much of your time thinking about us.
Then what will really put your mind in knots is how so many self-proclaimed non-racists take issue with "African American". There are at least a dozen of these posts started every year just at TD. Yet not one of these people have ever started a post and had a similar issue with "Asian American". Maybe you and your kind (that start and respond to these posts) just spend more of your time thinking about us. Again, I'm flattered from the attention.

All the hyphenated terms are stupid, including 'European American.'
Asian American might have the best case though because we don't call them 'yellows'.
Indian Americans are different from American Indians, or are they?

Easy, my man. James Baldwin said it best. "White Americans needs to ask themselves why they need to have the n***** in the first place." It's their invention. Blacks are men first. The obsession with race (their invention) is at times mind-boggling and worrisome. Why must t exist?
You cannot ask those that didn't not set these terms to ride the world of these terms.
