¿Como se dice "black guy" o "black girl" en español? Por ejemplo, "that black girl is cute." ¿Se puede decir "esa negra es guapa," o seria ofensivo? ¿Que tal "esa chica negra es guapa?"

Cualquiera de esas está correcta. No es ofensivo. Siempre tienes que considerar que no es tanto lo que se dice, sino cómo se dice.
