What does Palestinian-American mean?

"Palestinian-American" refers to a Palestinian who holds American citizenship at the same time.

These people are usually born in Palestine or one of their parents is Palestinian, and later immigrated to the United States and obtained American citizenship. They may still retain some Palestinian characteristics in culture, language and tradition, but they are American citizens in legal status and enjoy the same rights and responsibilities as all other American citizens.

There are significant regional differences in the racial composition of the American population. For example, African-Americans or Hispanics are more concentrated in some areas, while Asians or whites are more concentrated in other areas. Regional differences in ethnic composition can be attributed to many factors, including regional differences in immigration patterns, history and geography.

For example, areas with a history of large-scale immigration from certain countries may have more people from these countries. Similarly, African Americans may be more concentrated in areas with a history of slavery or racial discrimination.
