Even the founding fathers of the USA were Black People. Let me introduce Colonel George Washington, described as tall and dark complexioned.

His description is different from the images supposedly of him.

When will you people understand that when white people talk about tall and dark complexioned in that context, they are talking about white people with swarthy skin. People like this:

Op that man isn't black. Even he will deny it

He's biracial or multiracial.

Considered the greatest statesman of Rio de Janeiro in the 20th century, Nilo Peçanha was the first and only black man to hold the position of president of Brazil. Historians claim that the racist society of the time - which, unfortunately, hasn't changed much in the last century - meant that the lawyer often denied his African origins and his photographs were retouched to hide his dark skin. The fact that he was black also caused him problems with his mother-in-law, who kept away from her daughter and her husband until his death. In public life he was mocked and attacked in cartoons.

If Obama is black Nilo is also black.

That is what I used to understand. But I found out that the context of swarthy has changed over the last two hundred years to create a denial of Black People in certain histories. Same with olive complexioned. Olives are black or green. Therefore if not green-complexioned......

Colonel Washington was specifically of French Huegenot ancestry (those who fled France during the Protestant vs Catholic wars of religion). There were Black French People (not slaves from Africa) who fled to the Americas.
