Before the civil right law, most negro's were republican, because the democrats wouldn't let them join the party...Condolessa Rice made the same statement at the republican convention way back when...

African american label came in during the 70's I believe...it has changed a couple of times over the years by the democrat blacks, but before the 70's the term negro was not considered an insult..naacp...THE CP STANDS FOR COLORED PEOPLE. Maybe not politically correct today, but certainly not an insult...
