Turns out that we are ALL African-American. I know that from now on when I fill out those government forms I am checking that box and daring them the prove otherwise.

Actually a guy I work with (white, blond, from Minnesota) did that on a company form. The HR office gave him a hard time and he stood his ground. The HR office finally dropped the issue and let his claim stand. He was just annoyed that all those forms want to know "race."
