When I look at Wikipedia articles I notice that alot of historical figures that never heard the term "African-American" and certainly never called themselves that being retroactively labeled as such. The truth is, many, if not most, would likely protest being retroactively labeled African via "African-American" if they weren't dead.

Am I the only one that thinks retroactively applying modern labels that didn't exist contemporary to historical figures problematic?

"Hyphenated americans" is a communist thing. The US ISN'T multicultural, it has one culture, anglo culture. Leftists didn't like this so they made everything about race

The US has never been "one culture" you fuckwad. It was settled by various European groups. But then you obviously never finished highschool so it's no surprise you believe otherwise

That's because your racial make-up brings shame upon your ancestors.

I agree. For example, it's very presumptuous to anachronistically refer to Jesus' disciples as "Christians" when they identified as faithful Jews.
