        Are they a specific ethnicity in the United States defined generally by ancestral chattel slavery, because that’s the primary use of the term

              And they white as hell. So the distinction of black african american isn’t too weird.

        That’s technically true but I think if you called him African American he’d go apeshit

          I can’t imagine a conversation where he wouldn’t sound apeshit.

          YES!

          Let’s all refer to him as an African immigrant every time he’s mentioned, cause all immigrants are bad right? What’s good for the goose…

            How about we just not refer to him at all?

            This would hurt him the most.

          I’ve known South Africans that were white and definitely referred to themselves as white African American.

            You have a point but like… African American also means something different rather than the generic formula of (former country) (current country)

      I’ll never forget when a American tourist told my friend that he’s glad to meet another African American, and my friend said: mate, i’m swiss
