The African American does not want that word used and so you need to respect their desires.

They have been the aggrieved.

<<Negro is a perfectly good word which describes what is normally wanting to be defined without having to get into the weeds of whether somebody is a citizen of a particular country or countries. But it's an ill-defined word because Barack Obama for example is not really Negro, being a half-breed. Then there are Cablinasians and other varieties of people and that blending is accelerating as A380s rapidly move people all over the world, with about 3 million people being in the sky at any one time. "Black" is perhaps a better word as it more accurately describes the amount of melanin in somebody's skin.
