A friend of mine married a white woman from South Africa and she is now an American citizen, but she is not an African-American.Don't believe that - she is an African-American, as far as I'm concerned. She's from Africa. I've never been (neither have my parents or grandparents). She's got far more right to the term than I ever could.

I only mentioned it because it caused some consternation on the part of the public official present when she filled out the application for her marriage license and marked the box African-American.
