African American Edit Meaning

1.

What white people say when they afraid to say black especially when a black person is in the room.

But you KNOW when that black person leaves the room, they say that shit w/ some other words too.

Tom: My niggaaa!! ... did you see that black chick w/ that big ol' booty?!

Bob: Fo' shizzle, my nigga. I love me some bla--

*black person comes in*

Tom: Shh, bob!!

Black guy: Hey, what're you guys talking about?

Tom: Oh, nothing. Just saw an african american women walk by w/ a rather large rear end, that's all. -chuckles-

Bob: Yep, that's all. -fake laugh-

Black guy: You know I don't get offended if you say black, & not all of us came from africa.

Tom: What?! But that's such a racist term! I would never say that.

Bob: Never ...

Black guy: Whatever *leaves the room*

Tom: So yea, niggaa, that black bitch got a big ol' booty!!

Bob: Sheeeit, I just wanna grab that shit & spank it!! WOOO! *makes spanking motions*

2.

A politically correct term used by politicians, among others.

In my opinion, calling a black person "African American" is far more offensive than the word "Nigger". When you call a black person an African American, you automatically assume two things;

1. That just because they're black, they are of African descent. If they were born in America, I really wouldn't consider them as being of African descent.

2. The second thing you assume, is that everyone that lives in Africa is black, which is also incorrect.

By this logic, white people should be called "European Americans".

Political correctness blows ass. Period.

Politician 1: I think we should focus more strongly on the needs of the black community.

Politician 2: Oh my god! Did you just say... Black?! Tom, it's African American!

See african american, black, nigger, africa, politically correct

3.

Another retarded Americanism which only displays the ignorance of the American mindset...

I'm a white person living in Africa. I guess I can call myself a American-African?

Dave: Hey my African American friend! :D

Billy: Shut up, I have never been to Africa in my life.

4.

A politically correct term used in the United States for a black person. A black person could be 100% English but still be called African American by an American, even though they're neither African nor American.

American: "Look, it's an African American!"

Englishman: "I'm English, you dumbarse."

See englishman, american, african, politically correct, united states

5.

A controversial and failing attempt to euphemize an identity phrase for Black Americans. Unfortunately for the phrase's potential to be literally correct, all humans came from Africa at one time, therefore all people, regardless of breed, color, ethnicity or however one may choose to categorize them, are of African descent. Another problem the more-educated population has with the phrase is that the quickest way to know which specific type of African American one is referring to is to look at their skin. This takes the subject of conversation back to black, eliminating the function of the euphemistic-intentioned phrase. Due to it's failure to positively convey the identity of the Black American without error, the phrase has evolved into a dysphemism and is often spoken between air quotes.

Correct: Aboriginal Australians are black, and many of African emmigrants are black, but African Americans range in color as far as human potential has seen.

Incorrect: Jesse Jackson is an African American but Richard Nixon is not.

See black, euphemism, air quotes

6.

A word white people use because theyre afraid if they call black people "Black" they'll be offended. Even though black people call white people white. Just a stupid term that blacks are forced to put up with. It seems like a disrespectful term to me though, because it makes it seem like black people are not Americans, white people are just americans, yet blacks are "African Americans" not just plain americans.

White Dude: "He's African American."

Black Dude: "Mother Fucker you gon call me an African American, im from jamaica."

White Dude: "I just didnt want to offend you."

Black Dude: "Ok then, im gon call you a German American."

White Dude: "Im from Norway."

Black Dude: "Exactly!"

Black Dude: "Us "African Americans" are gon call you white people European Americans from now on."

7.

An African American is essentially a black person. Us white folk are expected to call them African American or we are racist. Many African Americans hate being called African Americans, but if a white person calls them black, they go all "wtf your a fucking racist you honkey" on them. As do the other white people. So, if your black, go ahead and keep calling yourself "black" "nigga" and "negro", but if your white you'd better not call them any of those things, because you are going to be called a racist. So be a good little honkey crackka and call those self-proclaimed niggas, white-proclaimed African-Americans, African Americans.

White Person: HEY!!! wazzup my black buddy!

Black Person(cross out) African American: DAMN YOU FUCKING HONKEY TONKEY CRACKKA RACIST!! You betta be callin' me & my nigga's African Americans ya hearrrrrr!!!!!!!!!

Later...

African American: Did you see that Crackka? He called me Black!! Nigga, I dunno how we even live in this white society. Damn boi! I get fucking harrassed by dem Honkeys every fucking day!! If I wazz white I would get A's instead of F's cuz Mizz Fucking José is such a racist too all us niggas! I bet they dont have to do no work!

Miss José: Boys, now, I helped you out here. I gave you a C instead of a D. Happy?

Good African American Boy: YES!!! I GOT AN A!!!!!!

*later goes on to be the next George Washington Carver*
