It already is... Irish-American, Polish-American, Jewish, etc.

"Black" isn't just about skin tone, it's about the shared cultural experience.

But that's not correct - while both would generally be considered 'black', sub Saharan Africans share very little cultural experience with African Americans.

Fair enough. But, as soon as the sub-Saharan African moves to the US, I suspect his experiences from that point forward will rapidly start to match those of Black Americans, particularly WRT to police use of force.

African immigrants generally strive, similar to Asian immigrants. The Nigerian stereotype is being a doctor. Issues like fatherless children, teenage pregnancy, juvenile delinquency and gang culture will likely be less prevalent, and the Africans will likely be less involved with the police.
