My wife works with refugees. She has an issue with the forms. There is a block for African-American. However some the people with which she works are African. They are not African American yet.
Besides, Africa is a whole freakin’ continent, so is Asia. Why don’t the forms have a block for European, North American, South American, Australian and Antarctican (for those penguin immigrants).
What difference does it make!? Oh, wait, that question’s been discredited 14 ways to Sunday, hasn’t it? ;)And yes, Ushindi, you are correct. Just not politically correct.

Why does my form say White (Non-Hispanic). When did Hispanic become the standard by which other races are judged like in the 1950’s term Non-White?

So a newly-naturalized caucasian U.S. citizen from South Africa is also an African-American?Makes sense, I guess…
