Your ancestors are slaves. African Americans ( esecially in the south) whos ancestors say they are african american are the decendants of freed slaves
African American is an ethnicity/culture unto itself….
creoles are African-American…Irish and French are white European cultures

Culture is a flawed concept.
It implies that your ancestors did certain things that you and your family do now.
But how far back are you willing to look, and at what point do you refuse to look further back and say "I don’t want to have anything in common with other "cultures" who can trace their heritage that far back" ?
Everyone can trace their heritage back to some common culture.

African American is the largest culture of blacks in the U.S. The ones from Louisiana, Mississippi or St. Louis likely have some Creole IF their family has been living there for a long time. Theres also the Gullahs in S. Carolina and some black Native American cultural people.
The rest are out of the U.S.
You are probably just African American, nothing wrong with that!

While the title of the show is probably not the best they could have chosen, the fact that homosexuality could not be an African value/thing is one of the main arguments used by African homophobes to justify their actions.
