I came across a Italian American woman, who said growing up in New York she was told that she is black because she is Sicilian. And that when Sicilians arrived first in the USA, they were listed as colored. I questioned her, a bit, and asked some questions, what do you think of what I said? Any opinions? I wonder if she will reply.

 
There is waaay too much preoccupation going on about ethnicities. I am 1/4 Danish, 1/4 German, 1/4 Mexican, and 1/4 Italian, which merged with Central American (Belize) . Wow. So what ?

We really need to get rid of the hyphens. Live in America; be an American.

And there is no such thing as African-American. The race that this term falsely describes, is best called simply "black".
