African American v. Black

[mccoyred]

I prefer Black, capitalized!

To me, this term encompasses the worlwide experience of Continental Africans and Diasporan Africans. While my struggle in Maryland may be different than the struggle in California, Mozambique, Brazil or France, they are fundamentally the same. Many of the same elements flow through these cultures because we are all Black.
