List of African-American Actors[edit]

Due to the increasing number of names under some birth years, could this list be alphabetized within each year for easier reference, or would doing so be consistent with Wikipedia practice for other list type articles? Adelm003a (talk) 03:54, 1 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Those people are black but they are not of African-American descent, you can't put all different type of black people together. How come we have other list of ethnic groups correct except African-Americans, you get Puerto Ricans list correct, not all white people are Jewish.
