Ohh I see. I'm Australian, so this is something I'm not well versed on (obviously as demonstrated with the lack of capital letters.) Can I ask how African-American Culture differs from Black Culture? I'm not trying to be obtuse, I genuinely want to understand and learn.
Also, if I can use you as a sounding board for a moment, I'm describing how each Archangel looks, only the once, to set the stage so to speak for the fact that they aren't identical, that each Archangel is an individual and unique, just like each race and culture on Earth. Can you give me an example of a respectful way to describe the two Black Archangels? I'm establishing one as being African-American (Raphael) and the other as being Ghanian, spending most of his time in the continental US when not working (Samael).
I freely admit I'm woefully ignorant on this topic and I don't want to be. I want to be informed and with that, be able to write these cultures with sensitivity and respect. Thank you again for being so willing to discuss this with me.
