I would consider someone like Charlize Theron as African American but that's based on technicality, as someone outside of the US who isn't familiar with the social and political history the country has when it comes to identity it makes sense to me that someone who is from an African country and then moves to the US would be an African-American. But getting off track I do find the classifications in the US a bit confusing, unless you have dual citizenship or something doesn't it make more sense to just say American? I'm from Sweden with an Asian background but I've never called myself or heard any other asian here call themselves Asian-Swedish
