∙ 8y agoAccording to the essay, The Negro Digs Up His Past, the remote racial origins of African-Americans is important because those origins offer a record of creditable group achievement. These achievements are not what the African-Americans and the world have been given to understand. High achieving African-Americans are not separate nor transcendent above the rest, but are a part of their culture and history. African-Americans need to see that they also contributed to their own liberation.

Can white people from Africa be African American?
Yes. There are many African Americans with extremely light and fair skin. Many people of African lineage are so fair that they have lived in the white world and their friends and sometimes family have no idea they have African heritage. There have been some very interesting documentaries produced on the topic. Modern DNA testing has shown that most African Americans have European ancestors which was, in most cases, not by choice. Passing as white has always been a way for light skinned African Americans to gain opportunities that would otherwise be denied. There are stories of slaves who escaped slavery because they could pass as white. See related link.

Why do black Americans refer to themselves as African Americans?
Their ancestors came from Africa, so the term is as natural as the similar terms for other immigrant ethnic groups like Italian Americans, Swedish Americans, or Polish Americans. The big difference is that the ancestors of most African Americans didn't come here voluntarily. Another difference is that European Americans can easily lose their ethnic origins if they want, assimilating into the majority society so much that nobody can really guess their origins. That's hard when your skin color makes you stand out from the crowd.
