It's kind of absurd what's considered racist and what isn't. For some reason "black" is not racist. Neither is "African-American", even though a lot of dark skinned people are not of African decent.

I feel pretty confident saying that the PC term these days is "black." I do see African American used in some literature still, especially with respect to census stuff, statistics, medical stuff, and sociology/psychology. But yeah.

Angrist, if you do come to the States...don't say "Negro." I mean, you might get away with it, it just depends if you are (a) sexy, (b) have a sexy accent.
