I personally prefer African-American because it is a complete representation of who I am. I am an American decendant of the African diaspora. I am not saying that I do not refer to myself as black but to me the term African American brings a greater sence of pride along with it.

PS. Mizzkes, did you get the salad bowl reference from Johnetta Cole. I heard her speak and she used that term and it totally revoulutionized my thinking.
