Are there any Blacks from South America there? If so, how are they treated?
Mostly I meet people from Angola and Nigeria on my day to day life, but I also know a few Ghanaians out here. Y'all seem to be cool.

Actually yes there are(primarily Brazillians). They're very integrated into the greater community actually.

Didn't say you were. You said "if you're scared or don't want to fight..." I said neither. Now if you're not trying to convince me, don't try to attribute things to me either. Run along.

Yes you give up and run away from the US
Are you even African American? What are you?

Didn't a lot of brazilians move back to parts of Nigeria at some point 50-100 years ago? Can't remember. Did they move back to other areas of west Africa as well?

You don't give up "progress." What is the end goal?
Most of em went back to Nigeria, but many also went to Ghana as well.
My great-great grandfather on my mother's side was one of the Black Brazillians that returned back to Africa. He was part of the Brimah family that became rich after returning to Africa and brought one of the first limosuines into the country.
Of course all the wealth became gone by my mom's generation.

Many, many people have returned. It just doesn't get reported.

You do when you leave the fight in the US.
The end goal is us prospering here in the US and later on having some power to reach out and support Africa
If you don't think it's possible then give up.
Yep, they live in a section of Lagos, I think. They say the first people to congratulate Brazil after it gained its independence were people sent by the Oyo Empire (Mind you, slavery was still going on in Brazil at that time and most slaves were actually coming from what is now Nigeria.
)

What is stopping you from prospering here?
