Talking to a patient a while back, I said something to the effect of “you being African American” and he blasted me with”I’m not a frakking African -American, I’m BLACK, from Jamaica.”
In Army basic training in 1976 I got to know a couple of guys from the Virgin Islands who made the very same point, but it was said with much scorn and derision.
So, all AA’s are black(ish, up to high taller), but not all black people are AA’s.
BTW - on every census card I’ve ever filled out I have written in “Human” for race, and only ever mark “other” if there’s no fill in the blank option elsewhere.
Screw the divisiveness of the left
that’s high YALLER… stupid autocorrect.
