Think of why liberals specifically use the colloquial language "African-American" on blacks. The vast majority of these people have never stepped in Africa and neither did their parents or even generations past for hundreds of years. The term is used to tie them subliminally to slavery every time they are identified. By contrast other nationalities don't identify themselves as descendants of cultures, they call themselves Japanese-American, Italian-American, etc. Eventually every ancestry is supposed to simply become 'American', but blacks are glued to this derogatory term for a very obvious reason. Under no other circumstances would it be possible to produce vivid illusions of slavery for an entire demographic that has never seen nor heard racism personally in their lifetimes. It's very much a one-of-a-kind form of self-enforced discrimination where an ethnic group is herded into a "black sheep" mentality. I see all english speaking black people in America as simply Americans. Most other races do not have this past with which to control them.

Which is why despite being black I make sure to say I'm black and not hyphenate. my ancestors who came here may have been slaves, but their descendants were born free and equal under the law and god. They are the sum of their actions as much as I am.

The last race you should call a minority is Asian. There's a gorillion of them.

Because one believes the victim narrative. The other, believes that they are owed only the world they make for themselves

Mind control is a fucking beast. Hard to convince someone they have been fooled. Be hopeful though. Many are taking the red pill now. 2020 for all of it's trouble is host to a great awakening.
