Why is it African Americans? Never hear European Americans, or terms like that. Should I describe myself as Celt English?

@meJess Anyway the term African American was created inorder to denote a specific ethnicity of people. White Americans will normally identify as being part Italian and part Jewish or of Celtic origin. African Americans don't have any specific country to pull from.
You will also hear the term Native American or Asian American sometimes as well.
