The 10 countries with highest black population outside of Africa

[2legit]

The Dominican Republic is not on the list?

20 million Brazilians describe themselves as “Black” according to their last census.

A number of Black Americans also mark themselves as multi-racial on the census.

Mi no black papiiiiiii

I think it's funny when they talk about slavery in regards to Saudi and Yemen, but not western nations....

Mind you as someone that has been to Saud, a good amount of those people considered black have ties dating back centuries where families have made hajj and never left the peninsula

Breh,

Exactly, Some of those Folks have been there since Ancient times.

"Slavery" is always the narrative they choose when trying to explain away the Black populations in "The Middle East".

The first Anatomically Modern Humans to ever step foot in "The Middle East" were Black Africans.

The Dominican Republic is not on the list?

Cuba too.

 

[Unbothered]

Most of the world's population is ethnically of Black/African descent.

It's not a far fetch to believe Brazil has 115M citizens who are ethically African/Black but unfortunately, many different parts of countries around the world still operate in the sense of stigmatizing being Black/African so numbers get skewed and are often underreported/unrepresented.

Numbers don''t sound right BUT it's interesting that the "pan-Africanists" don't emphasis us working with Black Brazilians.

noise for no reason, you definitely take some type of pills

 

[Phitz]

It’s from using US racial standards.

I know Brazil’s shyt gets complicated so I don’t really know what numbers to really consider.

right, alot of the mixed population identify as mixed

 

[Cuban Pete]

Something doesn't sound right about the numbers, especially for Brazil. Brazil has roughly 200 million people; 115 million black people sounds a bit high

This list isnt per capita, so it doesnt reflect the actual percentage, just hard numbers.

Which is why Saudi Arabia and Yemen would be higher than Jamaica and Brazil and the US higher than Haití even though those are 2 predominantly Black countries

 

[xXOGLEGENDXx]

Now how many of these people IDENTIFY as black?

 

[ROFL_GUY]

Brazil does not have 115 million black people.

You can say there’s 115 million Afro-descendants but not all of them would describe themselves as “Black”.

115 million in Brazil, which is a population of 203 million still seems off. Like someone else said, they're probably including mixed people

 

[get these nets]

Judging by the comments, would the Brazilian numbers be easier to accept if the heading was "of African descent"?

 

[Fillerguy]

Judging by the comments, would the Brazilian numbers be easier to accept if the heading was "of African descent"?

This would cause even more outrage

"The Land of Freedom and Democracy" interesting how that account made sure to specify where black people in Yemen, SA and France come from but "forgot" to do the same for other countries
