The word you are looking for is African which is more like Frenchman. Negro was a way to separate blacks from "our race".

No, "negro" is a term for race. Race is real. There is no shame in accurately describing or discussing it.

The fact that some people in some times who did not like people of this race used this accurate term does not (should not) invalidate it. "African-American" is not an accurate racial description. Nor is "black".
