Why can't we all just identify as Americans? Why do we have to hyphenate everything?

If you're an inhabitant in this country, you're an American, not a hyphenated American

Cause blacks like to feel oppressed and chose to be slaves to the liberals and identity politics.

For example Morgan freeman call himself an American not and African American and hates black history month saying it just causes division.

The "identity politics" practiced by the democrats won't permit it. They prefer a coalition of victimized tribes.

Anglo Protestants kept asking what are you? Where are you from? If you're born in America, you're an American. So kids of immigrants said Italian American, Irish American, etc.
