Has anyone else noticed that when you ask an Italian person what their nationality is, they always say "I'm Italian"; they don't even mention America. But we say: "I'm Black and...".
Man is identified by the land from which his forefathers come; where then, is this land called "Black"? Why don't we refer to ourselves as Africans living in America?

NO, NO, NO....you got it all twisted. We readily identify with being called black, as a bruh you should know that there is no disconnection from our African rootz. You need to rethink your point of view cuz i am personally well into Africa, as well as the west indies, and the dirty south(family, friends, bros, sorors and all OH MY!)... We all know this is a universal thang!
