Thanks for that, you proved my point. You've got further sub divisions of that as well such as American Carribean and American African IIRC. See what a minefield it all is? How can you or I tell whether a black person is Afro-American etc?No, black could be (1) Afro-American, (2) African, or (3) Carribean.
Indians are called Asians in America. Until they know they're Indian that is.Indians are called Indians, and justifiably so. Native Americans are also called Indians, but then, whenever there is any scope of ambiguity, it is clarified.
I'd disagree from working with Americans and from my various trips over there. I went in December 2001 for example and they were certainly venting their spleens at any person from the Indian sub continent that I saw.Family Guy is fun, but then, they take metaphors too far. Does not quite reflect the reality on the ground.
