No, there are other criteria. There are many ethnicities represented in Africa. If an Afrikaner were to move to America, he would not be referred to as an African-American. To be an African-American, a person would need to be of Congoid (Black African) ancestry but born in America. It is puzzling how, from a distance, anybody can know which continent a person was born on but, because "Black" and "Negro" fell out of favor, the term is used rather loosely to describe anybody of Congoid (also called Negroid) ancestry who happens to be in the United States.

In Latin America, mixed-race people were often referred to as "mestizos," a term used to describe individuals of mixed Indigenous and European ancestry.

These classifications played a significant role in social hierarchy and identity in colonial and post-colonial Latin American societies.

It can be seen as one depending on the person. Though black people have African ancestry, not all are directly from Africa or wish to be called African as opposed to where they may actually be from (e.g. America, France, Britain, Canada, Australia, etc). The same would be for a white person (or any person, truly) and their European ancestry. To just call them "European" can be seen as an insult since they may have been born and raised in a whole different part of the world and feel they have very little connection to the European continent.You call people by their name with respect, and if they wish and choose to be called another title, keep it to that individual and do not generalize it simply because they share the same skin color or heritage as another.
