It's disrespectful to the people who are born and raised in African countries when you can't even tell anyone anything about Africa and its very disrespectful to the white, mixed, Asian, Middle Eastern ect Africans who are constantly being told by African Americans that they are not allowed to call themselves African despite being born and living there while the Americans can't even name 5 countries or don't partake in any culture, Africa is a continent of countries and is defined by nationality and not race you can't call yourself African if you American born and raised with no real ties to Africa
