I just got told on a forum that I am posting about a black friend - I couldn't use the term 'Black'! - I was told I had to say African-American - I pointed out that he is not American but that didn't seem to matter to the stupid twat mod...
In the UK, if you know they are from Africa or the Caribbean you can say 'African' or 'Afro Caribbean' respectively - However, in general we can still say black.....
I said the 'PC term' - Keep it polite please - Unless you are talking about that cunt mod, in which case you can call him what you like
