how do we describe someone correctly?
Were I an Aboriginal Australian or from Jamaica I would want my cultural identity to be defined by who I am and not as Afro-American.

Absolutely true wayaboveitall, however I carefully titled the thread to 'Describing someone in America'. Were an Aboriginal Australian seen in America they would most likely be described as Afro-American purely on their looks.

Not by me. I don't use the term African-American simply because it has (incorrectly) become synonymous with black. And not all black people are African-American or even African. I use the term "black". I said African because I think that guy is from African. Don't know if that's correct, but that's how I would have described him.
