Do you think the term "Black" should refer exclusively to African Americans?

Why do Americans, regardless of race, often see themselves as the center of the world? The sense of entitlement is crazy. 

I genuinely think Hollywood has a lot to do with American-centrism

 

Because All movies and stories as based in here like it was the center of the world

 

And mixing this with a low quality educational system, the stupidity skyrockets

in my opinion: black vs poc vs african decent. 

 

i seen one too many occasions of poc & africans think they aren't black or do not align themselves to our culture. whereas afro-latino and other mixed races do identify as black. this is a US-centric take i cant speak for outside here.

Doesn't this type of tribalism not also occur among African-Americans? For instance, neoliberal capitalist African-Americans often look down on and actively oppose the causes championed by leftist African-Americans. Consider how Obama was critical of Black Lives Matter during the 2010s and only embraced it in 2020 when it became politically safer to do so, or how billionaires like Jay-Z urge African-Americans to "move on" from activism, as seen in the NFL controversy. Snobbery exists among all humans, so I wouldn't use some Africans looking down on or thinking they're better than African-Americans as a basis to question their Blackness.

Also OP found several tweets with less than 2K likes, nasty work. Now whenever AA say that Tyla is Black it's a problem and when they say "then I guess people not from here aren't Black since they don't wanna be considered such" it's also a problem. The global obsession with Americans especially AA's is so weird and one sided lmao.

Americans are ridiculous and over the next 4 years are going to become even more isolated from and out of touch with the world.
