*LOL* why would we call them AFRICAN rather than AFRICAN-AMERICAN? We tend to refer to them as "black" ( if for some reason we have to refer to them by race ) or by region/country they're from ( such as "trinidadian"). I know my youngest brother is black ( he's adopted ) and he tends to wince at the term "AFRICAN-AMERICAN" because:
1) he's not African
2) he's not American
and African-Canadian just sounds awkward at best.
