This is just the result of the stupidity of "Political Correctness." We've all been told not to refer to black people as blacks or anything other than "African-American," so don't blame Lin for misusing the idiotic reference.

I suppose she's "Asian-American."

It's much simpler to call anyone who is non-white anywhere in the world "African-Americans". Then you don't have to think. That suites the MSM perfectly. So, that makes Lin African-American, too.
