It always amazes me how people who don't even have a clue where the hell Africa is (just like Americans of all other colours) get the idea to call themselves "Africans". They're not Africans, they're Americans.
Actually, it can go either way. Caucasins (spelling?) can also be called "white". Blacks originate from Africa and now reside in United States of America, thus the term "African American" is correct. I might be wrong but I am pretty sure I'm right. BTW, I know where Africa is. I have been to Capetown twice in my life
