But you are also from Africa and that makes you an African. Just like a caucasian person from Netherlands is an European.

Similarly, a black man from the Netherlands (of which there are many) is also a European.

Back in school after apartheid was over we once got a questionarre where African was an option and everyone in the class wanted to select that option. The teacher said that we would get in trouble if we did, because you had to be of black origin to choose that option or the department of education would take action.
