You are Middle Eastern, not African-American. Cut that **** out.

‘African descent,’ for the purposes of that particular question, does NOT mean ‘descendant of Dutch settlers in South Africa,’ nor does it mean ‘human of any ethnicity, as humanity originated in Africa,’ and it certainly doesn’t mean 100% Egyptian (which makes you Caucasian and Middle Eastern, by the way). It means dark-skinned person with roots in Sub-Saharan Africa who, because of his or her distinctly African-American appearance, has been or can be subjected to a certain treatment by a certain type of people.

You’re trying to game the system AND playing dumb about it, which is just obnoxious.

Edit: Okay, you’re not. Maybe you were just genuinely confused. Sorry for going off on you.
