Black America - What is Our Language?

What words do Black Americans have to express ourselves in America? A Black politician is accused of playing the "race card" if he/she advocates for Black Americans. People from a Spanish-speaking group can call themselves Hispanics. They can advocate for changes in the imigration laws, migrant worker conditions, etc. They are not playing. They are for real. We are not playing. In a cat and mouse game, the mouse is not playing. Only the cat is.
