Question:

My friend's father was born in Africa. Does this make him African American?

His dad(and he) are clearly white. My friends grandparents gave birth to him while on vacation Africa. Now he claims that because his dad is African, so is he!I Can any help me?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: No, he is not African American, and not only is he not of African nationality, but he is perfectly Caucasian(assuming you live in Europe or US and he isn't Asian)
