Is Elon Musk African American?

[Anonymous]

I keep hearing people on this site saying he is African American but how? he's white as it gets, why do they want him to be African American?

[Msputiton]

He is from Africa. Hence African American

People have so little understanding how things work with these terms.

They assume black means African American.

They try to define me as African American.

I am jamaican and Bahamian American not African.

IF you are BORN and/raised on the African continent of American parentage, you ARE technically genuinely African-American. As to Elon Musk, I don't know the intimate details of his heritage~

It's should be about citizenships does he have citizenship in both US and south Africa? Because it's clearly not about race.

If you were born in Japan, you are Japanese, if you were born in America, you are an American. He was born in Africa, so by definition he is African.

He was born in South Africa, as far as i remember, but just check his wikipedia or other source to be sure.

Nu, he's from South Africa. If he's an American citizen, he is African-American.

Africa is a continent, not a skin color.
