[QUOTE]Originally posted by Truthcentric: [QB] The American definition of "black" is pretty damn schizo. There is definitely the widespread idea of "black facial features" which is the "True Negro" concept Jari is referring to, but on the other hand Northeast Africans and even people with only partial tropical African ancestry are classified as "black" by most Americans. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Sundjata: [qb]The AEs need not be referred to as "Black" as much as it should be emphasized that their closest relatives are in fact groups who westerners traditionally referred to as Black. [/qb][/QUOTE]I concur with this. People have no right to call Northeast Africans in general or biracial people like Barack Obama or Halle Berry "black" if they're not willing to do the same for the Egyptians. If you insist on sorting people into racial categories, at least be consistent about it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
