English Usage - African American, Afro-American.

African American is the currently accepted term in the US for Americans of African origin, having first become prominent in the late 1980s. It has largely replaced Afro-American, which was first recorded in the 19th century and became widespread in the 1960s and 1970s. In Britain, black is the standard term.
