Last I checked the polocks who are in this country for more than one generation aren't calling themselves Polish Americans. Same with the chinks, micks, wops and spics who aren't fresh off the boat. It is only the blacks that have been in this country for generations that have this label problem. I wonder how great they would have it if their ancestors had never left Africa. Oh, never mind, I know the answer to that by looking at Liberia, the country founded by former slaves that returned to Africa and well, the rest of Africa populated by those who weren't fortunate enough to have ancestors who were taken to North America.
