HARRY SAID
''We are a new breed or race of people that has emerged out of the ashes of slavery. Since White America people bred themselves with the African slaves, Black American people are the results from that breeding process. Black Americans are neither Africans nor Caucasians. ''
WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG
HERE IS THE PROOF YOU BEEN ASKING FOR !
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_America... African Americans, also referred to as Black Americans or Afro-Americans, are citizens or residents of the United States who have total or partial ancestry from any of the native populations of Sub-Saharan Africa.[3][4]
African Americans constitute the second largest racial and ethnic minority in the United States.[5] Most African Americans are of West and Central African descent and are descendants of enslaved blacks within the boundaries of the present United States.[6][7] However, some immigrants from African, Caribbean, Central American, and South American nations, and their descendants, may be identified or self-identify with the term.[4]
African-American history starts in the 16th century, with Africans forcibly taken to Spanish and English colonies in North America as slaves. After the United States came into being, black people continued to be enslaved and treated as inferiors. These circumstances were changed by Reconstruction, development of the black community, participation in the great military conflicts of the United States, the elimination of racial segregation, and the Civil Rights Movement. In 2008, Barack Obama was the first African American to be elected president of the United States. The geographical-origin-based term "African American" is commonly used interchangeably with "black American".
