I already said some native Americans were reclassified as negro. And some of their blood lines goes to those native American groups that was in this country for thousands of years.Well these are murals in Mexico that predate 1312 by 500-800 years.
Hopefully you, a black man I guess, won’t come back and say Busta Rhymes with dread lookin ass nikkas in Mexico aren’t or weren’t actually what we would call today “black” people. Most will because they rather run with the “white master black slave” narrative till they’re blue in the face over actually going outside of the mainstream to understand what really went on in history
And they especially want to put this kind of “white master and black slave” mindstate on us the most. But the truth is stranger than fiction tho
But for most of us, our history in this country started with the transatlantic slave trade.
People talk about 1619 but I will point out however, there were several times in the 1500s where Africans were in their Americas. The first being in 1526. The others being 1528, 1539, 1555, 1565 and 1586. The descendants of those left behind might have been classified as native Americans 1700s when the slave trade was in full swing. And then reclassified as negro in the early 1900s.
