AnOlderAmerican: An older American is black and proud.

If you are the person in the picture Francis posted, I am not so sure.

Well you my poor depraved IGBO hater have a right to your opinion on what degree of melanoma and pigment determines acceptable physical blackness to your criteria. I am from the land of slavery, Jim Crow, KKK, lynchings, Civil Rights, one drop of black blood making folks black no matter how blue the eyes or blonde the hair, where in the eyes of the whites we were all Niggers, yellows, browns, blacks, and blue black shines. So, frankly, I don't give a f u c k whether or not I am black enough for you!

Please leave him alone. He has proven himself too much already. Talking about credibility you lost yours a long time ago.

Clearly he's not your age mate. Chatting on a faceless forum with him doesn't suddenly make you equal with him. Accord him his respect.

Origins

The first slaves brought to the archipelago came of Bermuda (the slaves of this archipelago were, at least, of Angolan and Ghanaian descent).

[b]Most of slaves hailed from Central Africa, more than 37,000 were exported to The Bahamas. The rest of the slaves were from Senegambia (although alone were exported to The Bahamas, about 806 slaves from that area), Sierra Leone (only 1,187 slaves in that region), Windward Coast (1,030 slaves were imported from this area), from Ghana (only 484 slaves in that region), the Bight of Benin (1,044 slaves arrived to The Bahamas from there), from Nigeria (specifically Igbo. Slaves from Bight of Biafra and Equatoguinean adjacent islands were over 21,000) [2] and ethnicity such as Akan origin (Fante - Ashanti), Yoruba, Fulani and Kongos to country during the colonial period, which influenced on the current Bahamian Creole.

Many Bahamians are also descendants of Gullah imported to archipelago during the American Revolution. In 1821, some Angolans from the United States migrated to The Bahamas.

Currently more than 30,000 Haitians migrants live in the archipelag

Origins

Most of the slaves imported to Guyana came from Ghana (around 4% or 279 people), Bight of Biafra (around 16,8% or 4,300 people) and [b]Central Africa (around 22.3% or 18,000). [/b]Thousands of slaves also arrived from Senegambia (more than 14,000 came to British Guiana, 16.8% of the slaves) and the current Sierra Leone (11.8% of the slaves of the region, more of 10.000 people), Bight of Benin (5.1% of the slaves, more than 4,300 people) and Windward Coast (the 6.1% of the slaves of the island, more than 5,220 people).

Origins

Most of the slaves imported to Suriname came from Central Africa (more of 66,900 slaves, the 31,6% of the slaves of the place), Ghana (the 25% of the slaves, more of 53.000 people) and Bight of Benin (from there arrived the 16,4% of the slaves, more of 34,700 people). In Suriname also arrived thousands of slaves from Senegambia (since where were imported more of 1,300 slaves from there to archipelago, the 0,7% of the slaves) and the current Sierra Leone (0,7% of the slaves of the region, more of 1.400 people), Windward Coast (the 3,6% of the slaves of the island, more of 7,520 people) and Bight of Biafra (from there arrived the 2,1% of the slaves, more of 4,300 people).[citation needed]

The Akans of Fanti subgroup (a subgroup exported, at least, from Ivory Coast) and Ashanti (from the Ashanti Region, in central Ghana) were, legally, the predominant group among slaves in Suriname. However, in practice, slaves from Loango,[1]purchased in Cabinda, Angola,[2] were the largest group of slaves in Suriname since 1670 and surpassed the Gold Coast in almost all periods. However, there were also slaves Ewe (who live in southern Ghana, Togo and Benin), Yoruba (from Benin[3]) and Kongos, who left their cultural footprints in Suriname.

Origins

Most slaves were for Ghana (15,000 slaves came from this place. Many of them were Ashantis[1]). The rest of the slaves were imported from Senegambia (over 2,000 slaves), Sierra Leone (only 669 slaves came from this place), the Windward Coast (542 slaves), Bight of Benin (over 37,000 slaves), the Bight of Biafra (over 1,000 slaves) , Angola (specifically Loangos from Cabinda Province.[1]

More than 38,000 Central African slaves were exported to Curaçao and "other" places in Africa (3,268 slaves).[2] In addition, some linguists consider the Papiamento must have arisen on this island. At this point we should mention that some linguists who have studied the Papiamento, suggest the arrival of slaves Cape Verdeans (most Cape Verdeans are of Guinean origin) and São Toméan of Angolan origin to the islands, groups which, according to them, could have influenced the creation of this dialect. Ethnically Afro-Curaçaoans largely descended from the intermarriages and contacts between the African Slaves, Amerindians that lived on the island, Spanish slave traders, British log cutters and Dutch settlers .

Went to Guyana and I noticed that most of the Black people in Guyana closely resembled Ghanaians.
Most if them did NOT appear to have that "mixed look" that you see in other parts of the diaspora.

Hey! The name Ghana does not have any cultural significance among the tribes in present day Ghana. The name originates from the Mali Empire and was adopted by Kwame Nkrumah to replace Gold Coast in order to have an African identity.
Present day Ghana is diversed, we have the Hausas of Nigeria, Chad, Niger and Mali now integrated.

Are you calling me a liar?

You guys are certifiably insane. Kwame, is Harry Belafonte black?

BigFrances21, how can you endure such insolent, envious, IGBO hating folks? I mean seriously, man, they are Insane.

He is a Jamaican of mixed heritage.

Well I don't know if they look like any one specific group but some of them have a more "purer"
look than the average caribbean (much like most Haitians).

GH PATRIOT:

I honestly don't know what you're on about.

Obviously a troll looking for an argument.

They still resemble Ghanaians today.

Is that an issue for you??

Yes I noticed this.

When you live in the midst of all the hate, envy and accusations, you'll do the only natural thing left to do - you develop a thick skin such that all the negative energy doesn't seem like anything to you.

How was your day, sir?

Wonderful level of maturity

I guess I am blessed to have been born American.

May the IGBOS live forevermore!

Fulaman198:

Wonderful level of maturity

no offense but take the time to actually read the thread before you cosign.
he is anything but humble or mature.

Jayvarley:


Yes I noticed this.

cool.

And he should believe you because you are Kails? Lmao Jay Varley the coin has 2 sides. Igbo lovers Igbo haters at least in this thread.

look here, this is the ONE and only time I will address this issue
unlike some cowards, when i address people i use ONE account. I don't need to TALK TO or console myself using another I.D. I am grown and have no respect for alt account clowns esp. those who chat shyt.

That's one.

Second the same dude disrespected the fulani ethnic group JUST BECAUSE i said some of our forefathers were fulani among other groups. (Jayvarley, Kwame, and Chima can back me up on that!!) Now just because your "lord and saviour" or should i say really your SECOND PERSONALITY, felt butthurt that he/YOU cannot claim an entire group of people (diaspora blacks) as his/YOUR own, he/YOU resorted to personal and bigoted attacks that were tribalistic in nature.

Because I respect Fulaman, I didn't want him associated with the likes of THAT/YOUR ILK.

And I am done.
FOH with that obviously FAKE profile picture. Now keep recycling this culture section page as guest to see if i left, log on and chat more sh-t if you like, I'm out.
