Political correctness

[ffutures]

I need to describe a character's race - which of the following would currently be least offensive and/or most politically correct for an American audience:

Negro
Black
African-American

I've currently got it as African-American but it feels a little awkward, especially since the person I'm describing is actually a god. Any thoughts? Suggestions?
