Why is it more politically correct to use the term "African American" than "Black?" - Quora

I have a sister-in-law who is from Jamaica but also was in the US Navy as an assistant of some kind for the Navy SEALS. She called herself "black" and so did we as I recall. She was a US citizen obviously but is still Jamaican too.
