It means, by definiton, that you are of African descent, Black, or an African who moved to America and achieved citizenship. What it really means: You like rap music, talk differently than white people, dont get paid as much as white people, are bigger, stronger, faster, smoke alot of weed and menthols... and... Have dry skin and coarse hair.
