Thanks, Drole!!

^^^That is sooooo true sometimes. It's the same with other brown peoples. If one is "Black" that will translate into "African American" no matter how many times one might say he or she was born in Jamaica/Barbados/Trinidad/etc.

That's not the same thing.

Moreover, it it bothers those Blacks to be considered African American (which usually happens because their Jamaican/Barbados/Trinidad/etc. heritage isn't as blatant as they think it is despite telling people where they are born), they need to take their behinds back to Jamaica/Barbados/Trinidad/etc where their country of origin will always be acknowledged and appreciated.
