Black slave owners in the United States → African-American slave owners – The associated category will be renamed per Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2023_November_23#Category:Black_slave_owners_in_the_United_States, and similar arguments about the use of African American instead of Black apply here, as suggested by Marcocapelle (talk · contribs). –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 14:31, 1 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Support No objections from me. I created this when trying to tidy up slavery in the United States and I think I used the language that was already there but also all possible names for this topic are just confusing generally. jengod (talk) 14:40, 1 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Support, the article is about African-Americans, not about anyone with a black skin. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:01, 1 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
