They know their race, but don't know their ethnicity

True?

By this logic, an African American that knows his ethnicity is not an African American.

This is why you fail.

There are a lot of white African Americans. The girl across the street went to South Africa, met a guy, got married and came back to the US. He became a citizen. He's white, as are many in So. Africa. He IS an African American

And I am a moron because I've shown the holes in your generalization? Or is this a satire topic?

The term African American IS nationality. There is no race by that name. Technically, Negro is the term for the black race, that's why I NEVER use the term "African American"

Technically, race may or may not exist, so the term negro may or may not be valid. So, what is your point?

The point is that's what this topic is about. I'm just pointing out that race and nationality are different. That African American is not a race.

If race doesn't exist, then the premise of this topic is faulty. Since you can't prove race exists, then the premise is faulty because a necessity is not true, or has not been proven to be true. Nothing human is racial unless objectively proven otherwise, and thus, African-American is not a race and neither is anything else.

To answer your question, if race did exist, then African-Americans would be a largely mixed race people. Americans, themselves, would be heavily mixed race with the white population already having at least 30% admixture with something else.
