Wouldnt they be African - New Zealanders? biggrin:

I think that's just a stupid fuckin term in general. Yeah, I know, Maddox wrote a whole article about it, but he was right.

Is being called "Black" offensive? If so, why? Is it because of the association of negative, evil things with the color black?[/quote:600e3]

Either way I used it to distinguish african americans in particular out of many dark-skinned ethnicities that could have been mistaken for, had I simply used the word black. Because we do have alot of black people in our country too... beer:
