They can call themselves Cherokee or Purple gorillas for all I care. I use the term "American" to describe them because they currently live within the borders of the U.S.A..
The fact remains that there were people in what is described as "China" long before it was called "China" and those people looked the same and spoke the same language as they do now.
Israel is the land of the Jews in the same way that China is the land of Chinese people, Italy is the land of the Italian people, Greece is the land of the Greek, etc.
