African American? Did they or their parents recently immigrate from Africa? Are they invested in African politics? Do they at least adopt some form of African cultural identity? Otherwise, they are just Americans.
Elon Musk is more of an African American than people judged by the color of their skin given how much he has tried to push his own agendas regarding South Africa onto this administration.
If Musk was truly a first generation African American, he'd have been deported already.
you know what "African-American" means, stop being obtuse, you just sound ridiculous
We all know what people mean by it; they mean "black" but are scared to say it for whatever reason.
I think criticism of the term "African-American" is valid. Most black people in America today have never been to Africa.
oh absolutely, i've seen enough criticism of that term from Black people (americans or not) to know not to use it.
still, pretending to not know what it means just to push a half-baked message about racial colorblindness is... why. why would you do this. the elon musk shit on top of it, why
