If they are born in the U.S., they aren't African-Cuban now, are they?

Hmmm... I don't recall stating that "all blacks" were African-American... the post was about Tiger Woods.


In addition... to get technical about it, Cubans, Brazilians, and even Canadians are Americans too.

Why can't we all just be AMERICAN CITIZENS?

That is the f***ing problem with our country now anyway. We all want to be something our ancestors used to be and not what we are now.

For what its worth...naaa never mind. To many small minded people outside of the Southern States anyway. :D

I have checked..

Since I am 1/4 Sicilian, and Sicily was conquered by Carthage... Obviously the Carthaginians (from Africa) would have been enamoured by the comely Sicilian women ... thus I am probably African American.

I have heard of some Jim Crow laws (hopefully long gone) that mandated something like 3/32...  appx 9%

According to that rule, I am simultaneously German, English, Irish, Italian and Pima.

Guess that makes me a mutt.
