So is she born in Africa then became an American citizen? Or is she born in America and people keep calling her African-American, which makes no sense! For someone to be called African-American or Cuban-American, or Italian American meaning they were born outside of the United States, then became an American citizen. So, she’s just an American who became a pilot and I wish her the best.

Exactly! I can't stand when ppl call me that bc I'm an American. But it's no shock that white ppl call us that on purpose to place us back there. The producers behind ABC News are white, guaranteed. That's why they call her that. I live in Philly now and on no news station down here do they say that. They just call us black, which I respect.

@FessanPanafric It's fake race baiting! Seem people have a problem just being called American! And, a sucker like you, trying to be trapping with asking that! Just what Clown great-great grandparents where, born in Africa, they were Africa-American, I'm on born here I'm American. So, yes it's call disrespect to your own Land, your own flag. So, yes I do sheep. She's born in this beautiful country, she's American! Stop wearing fake clothes and, except not to be called out. If you, dislike your own country, you're a sellout.

Yea it's dumb I agree. I'm not African. I was born in New York. I hate when white ppl apply the African to who we are bc that's how they view us. That's why I love Philly news. Here they just call us black. And that's the way it should be. Stop attaching African to it. We are American so leave it as such!

Why does it say she is from Farmingdale when they keep saying she is from Staten Island? She got her pilot license in Farmimgdale. And she is from Staten Island. If you need a proofreader, I am available. And I am really good at it, ABC Eyewitness News. 🙂

This is not her alone. She has the support of her whole extended family. Looks like half of them are veterans (thank you all for your service) the green jumper suit under her jacket makes me wonder if she is a CAP cadet member.

Because she's not and it wouldn't be a story otherwise. They gotta make a show to fulfill a narrative. Nonetheless it's is a very nice accomplishment for that age. The rhetoric is just stupid though.

because its the woke world we are living in. Plus thats the only part of it that makes this story news worthy to the media. If this was a white kid, Asian, or even hispanic, it would have not made the news.

@@t206kid no, it's because black girls have been historically denied access to flight training. Bessie Coleman, the first black woman to become a pilot, had to travel all the way to France to receive training because no flight schools in the US would allow her to set foot into her schools. And Black families today are more likely to be in economic disparities that make it hard to afford the exorbitant costs of flight training. BTW, young white pilots make the news all of the time. Relax. The great replacement is not real.
