Actually, most people don't buy into PC. I mean, would it change much if the KKK said African-American?
Of course, the ones who do fall into it are really confused by African immigrants. Some of these African immigrants are white, after all. SNL had a whole sketch with Charlize Theron about that in the early 90s.
I actually once noticed in my junior year, we all had to watch this one movie and do a report on it for history, and all the black guys went to the back of the bus on the trip to the theater. I made a comment about how it looked like South Africa in the 80s, and they were clueless as to what I meant. Even this one kid who was really into Afrocentrism didn't know about it. (And not just that. I could ask him about Sudan, Sierra Leone, or the Congo, and he wouldn't know a thing.)
