My black friends and black people of my acquaintance have never objected to being called "black." My Indian friends and acquaintances have never objected to being called "Indian." Most of the time, both groups use the respective terms in their own conversations. Seldom have I ever heard "African American" or "Native American".
They generally prefer to identify themselves as "Black", and "Indian."
I'm not going to keep up with the latest descriptive identification fads being churned out by the media people in New York and Los Angeles. These people only have power because we keep deferring to their stupid pronouncements.
You realize I was making a joke, right?
