How un-PC. Didn't this white boy know that only blacks can be true African-Americans? Regardless of the fact that none of the 'African'-Americans in his school are really from Africa, except him of course.

And I wonder what the idiots at the school would have done if say an Egyptian student ran for the 'African'-American award? Last I checked Egypt was still in Africa. Wait, I know, he'd have to run for the Egyptian-African-American award.

Yep, being a pc race-pimp certainly does get complicated at times!

I can no longer remember where I read it, but at some point, an Egyptian was told he could not call himself African-American because he wasn't black.

Egypt?Yes,it is in Africa and I have known more than a few Egyptians with"Negroid"features.Which is not to say that it is a "Black"country as some Afrocentrists claim but it is undeniable that there must have been a lot of mixing with people to the south.
