If a man's parents are from DRC and he was born in France and grew up in DRC, but moved to America everyone would still consider that man African-American. Same with someone who is born to 2 African or African-American parents within America

Because African-American most commonly describes descendants from American slaves, it can be used to identify people from Africa post-emancipation but that’s not what it’s usually used for

No yeah thats fair I've heard that as well, I just don't see it as making them any less African-American. It's like how a French-American is still a European-American, Japanese-American still an Asian-American, etc
