Hello, I am intrested in knowing who first coined the term "African American" to describe Black Americans. I know, when I was a child back in 1950, as a race we were known as "Nergros." Who changed that term to "African American." What power did this author have that this term was used to rewrite the Black Histories in classrooms, books, and daily life. From the President down to the lowest of persons, Black American have been robbed of their rightful place in the America they built, fought for, and died for, just because some disinfranchised person used a degrading term to please the people being addressed. If anyone can shed some light on this topic, please do so. Thanks, as one American to another. Ravoravojfd (talk) 18:57, 15 September 2013 (UTC)

Your question
Personally, this is not something that in my opinion Wikipedia can explain. How ever you can try our Teahouse where experienced wikipedians (except me) can answer that, and many other questions.
