it is with the portuguese in particular and colonialism in general, that the name Africa or africans was extended to the rest of the continent.
here, in the U.S.A,to describe a black person, I never say "he is an african-american" , I always say "he is a black man".
because being an african has nothing to do with the colour of the skin.
about racism, anyone can be a potential racist.
but, right now, you should be more concerned about the fate of the Albinos in east africa, were some 10.000 of them are in hiding , fearing of being killed for their "precious body parts" that can bring a lot of money for the seller !.
indeed. you should wake up and smell the coffee. !
