most black people of the 20th century were born and raised in the United States and if u haven't seen the news lately, a lot of stuff has been going on in Africa... (diseases, killings, and poverty) just to name a few... \n\nAfrica is the place where we orginal came from...but if u are born and raised in a country... u tend to consider the country u live in as your home and not the place you came from in the past generations...You rememeber the past and where you come from, but ur eyes are looking toward the future...\n\nAmerica seems to have a lot more freedom, especially when u look at the news and see wat is going on in Africa right now...

The Eurpeans wouldnt have liked to undergo hardships in tropical parts of arfica. They are from milder climates, and they can not bear to work hard in trpoics. So they didnt conquer entire africa. If they had managed to do so, the entire world would be full of whites and yellows. And perhaps all the natives of africa would be working all over the word.

History of slavery started in the continent of Africa. Tribes would war against each other and conquer, killing men mostly and keeping women. As trade started with the Europeans, African kings would barter and sell slaves to these Europeans traders for guns and other items, STARTING SLAVERY IN THE KNOWN WORLD!With there being so many countries in Africa know one knows who should pay who for this atrocity. This is just a fact of man's inhumanity to each other.In many African countries slavery still exists

In terms of actual, hard paleontological and archaeological evidence, there is no disagreement amongst the scientific community that Homo sapiens originated in Africa.\n\nThis has nothing to do with the fact that three of the modern species of great ape, which are also the three which are most closely genetically linked to modern humans are found in Africa.  This is strong corroborating evidence, but it is the actual physical bones and tools of early humans that are first found in Africa.\n\nThis also takes place LONG after the break up of Pangea.  A map of the Earth at the time would look pretty much exactly the same as it does now.  The main differences would be on the coast lines, where differences in sea levels during glaciations or in inter-glacial periods would reveal or conceal large sections of coastal real estate.\n\nThe African origin of humans is also evidenced in mitochondrial DNA studies and other projects mapping the human genome and regional variations.  The greatest genetic diversity among all human populations occurs amongst African peoples.  Genetic comparisons between groups such as the San and !Kung tribes of the Kalahari, the Mbutu tribes of the Congo basin, and populations in East and West Africa show more genetic variability than exists between Asians, North American Indians and Europeans.  This indicates that Africa was the site of the original development of the human population, and that all the other groups of human 'races' are actually descended from just one group of the diverse African genetic mileau (the East African branch actually).  \n\nYes, that means that if you were able to trace back through the family trees you would find that the Grand Wizard of the KKK is actually more closely related to the Masai warriors of Kenya than Oprah Winfrey is (who is of West African descent).\n\nFrom Africa, humans spread out all over the globe, crossing land bridges and sailing across stretches of water to reach Australia at least 45,000 years ago (by the Upper Swan River near Perth, as well as the Willandra lakes region in the southern interior by 40,000 years ago), and crossing the Beringia land bridge exposed between Alaska and Russia to colonize North America about 12,000 years ago.\n\nThe only debate in scientific circles is whether there was one or several migrations of humans out of Africa.  The first anatomically modern humans (Homo sapiens sapiens) appear in South Africa, at the cave complex of Klasies River Mouth by 100,000 years ago.  After that, the same phenotypic subspecies, with a distinctive round cranium, thin walled skull, lack of a strong brow ridge and a protruding chin (also known as a mental eminence) started appearing in the Middle East, Europe and Asia.\n\nSome indicate that this suggests that anatomically modern humans arose in South Africa, and spread out once again from there to take over or intermingle with all of the populations of earlier Homo sapiens (such as the Neandertals) that had migrated out of Africa.  There are others who have proposed a 'regional continuity' model, where the populations of Homo sapiens that had moved out of Africa and into Europe and Asia somehow totally independently for some reason developed the exact same phenotypic changes in morphology seen in the South African population, and Homo sapiens sapiens evolved throughout the entire range of the species.  No one has yet managed to propose a viable mechanism for this unusual pattern of evolution.  It has always seemed to me to be a vaguely racist hypothesis, as if even scientists are unwilling to accept the evidence that all humans could possibly have come from Africa THAT recently.\n\nStrong, independent physical evidence comes from the fields of palaeontology, archaeology, geology, biogeography, and genetics that humans definitely originated in Africa, and moved out from there to colonize the rest of the world.  There is also evidence that it happened as many as three times (Homo erectu

Yes. Since Haiti's two official languages are Creole and French, and French is a latin language while the haitian Creole widely derives from French. So, technically Haiti is part of Latin America. \nAnd also, more officially, Haiti is part of the Latin Union (UL) (http://www.unilat.org/info_fr/membre/membre.html).(Now if that does not make us part of latin America nothing will)

Africa. It is called the Federal Republic of Nigeria. \n\nNigeria, one-third larger than Texas and the most populous country in Africa, is situated on the Gulf of Guinea in West Africa. Its neighbors are Benin, Niger, Cameroon, and Chad. The lower course of the Niger River flows south through the western part of the country into the Gulf of Guinea. Swamps and mangrove forests border the southern coast; inland are hardwood forests.\n\nbrownsluv --'White' man, and I'm thinking you mean southern 'white' man since that is where the 'n-word' came from, are no more 'ignorant' than any other geographical area of the USA. The n-word comes from the way Southerners said the word Negro. With the southern accent it came out  'negr' or 'ni**er' .  It really wasn't meant to be a 'bad' word. How ignorant YOU are.

I believe I can help here...I recently read a story from Kevin Sites Hot Zone web that told a story about Haitians who eat "mud pies".  The two links below give the original story, AND the blog that resulted from the overwhelming interest in it.  I hope this helps you understand a bit better.\n\nIf you read the entire blog (the second link), you'll see that there are references to Kenya and the tradition of eating "dirt".

If I am Black? Well I am half black. I came from my mom and dad. they came from American soil. My grandparents were born in America. my great-grandparents on both sides were born in America. I'm as American as anyone. There is no way to know where my mother's ancestor's came from; slaves were taken from all over west Africa. but based on my and my mom's  bone and facial structure (AND who my grandparents look like) I'd say my ancestors came from Egypt and South Africa.

I thought it started in Africa and then spread from there.

The recorded history of Haïti began when the island of Hispaniola was discovered by Christopher Columbus in December 1492. It was at that time inhabited by the Arawak (or Taíno), a Native American people, who called the island Haiti. Columbus established a small settlement near Cap-Haïtien, but, when he returned in 1493, the settlers had disappeared, presumably killed. He claimed the whole island for Spain, and left his brother Bartholomew Columbus to find a new settlement.\n\nFollowing the arrival of Europeans, Haïti's indigenous population suffered near-extinction, in possibly the worst case of depopulation in the Americas. This demographic collapse has been attributed by many to deliberate genocide on the part of the Spanish. The Catholic priest and contempory historian Bartolomé de Las Casas wrote in his multi-volume History of the Indies (1527-61):\n\nThere were 60,000 people living on this island (when I arrived in 1508), including the Indians; so that from 1494 to 1508, over three million people had perished from war, slavery and the mines. Who in future generations will believe this? \nIt is thought by many historians today that Las Casas's figures for the pre-contact levels of the Arawak population were an exaggeration and that a figure of slightly over a million original inhabitants is more likely. The high mortality in Haïti can be attributed at least in part to murder, forced labour and repression, but experience elsewhere suggests that the loss was largely the result of the introduction of Old World diseases, to which the inhabitants had no resistance.\n\nSpanish interest in Hispaniola began to wane in the 1520s, as more lucrative gold and silver deposits were found in Mexico and South America. Thereafter the population of Spanish Hispaniola grew slowly. Fearful of pirate attacks, the king of Spain in 1606 ordered all colonists on Hispaniola to move closer to the capital city, Santo Domingo. This backfired, as British, Dutch and French pirates then established bases on the island's abandoned northern and western coasts.\n\nFrench settlement of the island began in 1625, and, in 1664, France formally claimed control of the western portion of the island. By the 1697 Treaty of Ryswick, Spain officially ceded the western third of Hispaniola to France. France named its new colony Saint-Domingue.\n\nContents [hide]\n1 Colonial Saint-Domingue \n2 The Revolutionary Period \n3 Political struggles \n4 Foreign intervention \n5 Renewed dictatorship \n6 The Aristide era \n7 See also \n8 References \n \n\n\n[edit]\nColonial Saint-Domingue\nFrench planters established numerous sugar and coffee plantations, making Saint-Domingue the "Pearl of the Antilles" – one of the richest colonies in the 18th century French empire. By the 1780s, Saint-Domingue produced about 40 percent of all the sugar and 60 percent of all the coffee consumed in Europe. This single colony, roughly the size of Maryland or Belgium, produced more sugar and coffee than all of Britain's West Indian colonies combined.\n\nDuring this period, an estimated 790,000 African slaves were brought to work on sugarcane and coffee plantations (accounting in 1783-1791 for a third of the entire Atlantic slave trade), though inability to maintain slave numbers without constant resupply from Africa meant that at its end the population numbered only about 500,000, ruled by some 32,000 Whites. At all times, a majority of slaves in the colony were African-born, as the brutal conditions of slavery prevented the population from experiencing growth through natural increase[1]. African culture thus remained strong among slaves to the end of French rule.\n\nSaint-Domingue also had the largest and wealthiest free population of color in the Caribbean, a group also known as the gens de couleur. The royal census of 1789 counted roughly 25,000 such persons. Typically they were the descendants of the enslaved women that French colonists took as mistresses. Th
