I am just speculating, but I have always struggled with calling black people "African American" just for the fact that I actually had an African American friend. His dad was from Africa. His mom was from America. He was African American and he also happened to be black.
Are there no white people in Africa?

So - his African parent could be white - right?

Or - maybe he was born to two white parents from Africa, then moved to America. But that wouldn't explain his profiling story.

And am I the only person who doesn't really care much about Tyler Perry - one way or the other?

Trayvon Martin's case - yes. Tyler Perry? No.
