Agreed. The only real thing that ties "African Americans" with Africa is their appearance and obviously their origins, just as any other American, no one really originated in America. African Americans should simply be called "Black Americans"

No, black American is not good, because black is a race, it could be "anyone".

We are a specific people, and no, the totality of our origin is not Africa or even West Africa, haven't you learned anything from the DNA studies on this board?
