Usually I notice people that who assume the worst tend to be those least experienced with other races. Or they assume they know everything, because of token friends. Worst of all, they might be overly sensitive people who think saying 'Black' is hate speech.
There is no crime in wondering how to properly talk to those different from you. It's better to ask than to say something stupid and hurt others later. It's impossible to be aware of the cultural/social norms of every aspect of society. Taking a moment to learn them is actually better than assuming you're right and treating everything the same.

I am gonna assume you mean calling them demographicaly. So Black it is.
PC culture seems to have made people sensitive about this topic
Whats more, people who want to be virtuous and "hero" about things started looking for excuses to proclaim their themselves to be morally prurer than the lot and jump at every opportunity no matter how vague.
Yes. I am "white" (though actually more peachy). That is how people refer to me when they call me by color and I can't remember anyone ever using anything other than "white" or "white boy." White people also call me "white" when they refer to me by color.
I don't think "white" people really get offended by things like that. Even if you called me a derogotory term for a white person, it really wouldn't bother me.
We call them Will Smiths.
Hopefully this solves the problem...
If I have to identify someone's skin color and he/she is black, I would say black over something else.

It’s weird. Every now and then the news on TV will show some celebrity being ‘attacked’ for using the word ‘coloured’ or ‘black’ and they’ll do an interview with some anti-racism organisation where they go on about how offensive the terms are without offering alternatives.
I realise most are fine with being called black, but better safe than fined and forced to attend sensitivity sessions or whatnot.

Some shade dark, since most people aren't actually black. Though some are.
I usually just call them Africans.
If I know them I call them by their name, if not I just say hello, it is easy as that..
