Do you think the word "Black" is itself racially loaded? Meaning, it's a racist classification of Africans?
Black as a color has a history of being associated with evil symbolism and a polar opposite to white, which is used symbolically as the positive, like yin and yang. Black is known as contrary to the light, and humans naturally fear the dark, so do you think people labeled Africans as black in order to easily slap on a monicker where current and future generations would demonize people based on racially loaded words and prejudice? I mean, why even label two groups of people based on a color, and not every other ethnicity, if it's not even accurate? Black people's skin in my experience has been ranging from olive to brown to dark brown.
