Are all blacks in USA called African American ?  It suggests a second class citizen whose grand parents came over as slaves in the 18th century. 

What about blacks who have never lived in Africa ? If a black lawyer from Holland whose grandparents emigrated to Holland from Brazil in 1920 emigrated to USA this year would he be an African American too ?

And Obama.  His mother is white English and his father is a British Kenyan.   How the fuck does he become African American?

All very queer if you ask me.

I say this all the time. Do we call other people by their heritage? Polish-American? French-American? No. They are simply Black or Black Americans. Very stupid PC pandering bullshit.

Blame the US for this quandary.  

A little history. From past to present "categories for blacks" to today.

- Slaves (obvious ..we know the history there) - 1800's
- Slaves , Free Colored Persons
- Black, Mulatto
- Black (negro), Mullato - 1900's
- Negro
- Black or Negro
- Black, African American or Negro  - 2000

also around 1970 is when PR, Cuban, Central and South american were finally added ..before then it was only mexican.
 
And this is from the census bureau not me.

Yup.

Most applications say:
white - non Hispanic.  So basically arabs are considered white which is funny.
African American
Hispanic

To answer your question. Yes, "we" do. If you haven't notice this, you are not very observant--Polish American, Irish American, "or the third generation Italian American", Korean American, Chinese American, etc.
