The same reason you have an english last name

You obviously don't know what you are talking about. My name is slave colonial origin and Dennis is not slave colonial origin. So his reason for having that German last name is not slavery like mine. The Germans hosted no slaves in their country and Dennis looks tribal African. They were German colonials but I don't know of any colonial African countries whom adopted German names.

Now that we've established Dennis doesn't have his last name because of slavery, the question remains as to why Dennis' last name is Shroeder when African immigrants in Europe generally have African names.

Obviously at some point his father or someone in his father family co-opted German names. It's no different from West Indians who migrated to Costa Rica with English names and then co-opted Spanish ones. At the end of the day, does this really matter? You were asking this same question about Schroder in a different thread a year ago and you continue to ask it expecting a different answer. We can look at him and see he's African, what importance is his last name to you?

Schroder's dad is a German national, how/why/when he ended up in Germany I dont know but clearly at some point he adopted a German name and that's why his last name is Schroder.

His dad can't really be a true German national or else he'd look biracial.

I am West Indian decent. I don't know of any West Indians that change their names to Spanish ones or that even move to Costa Rica. Do you have any proof of West Indians moving to Costa Rica and changing their names?

And yeah, it matters. I feel a type of way that Dennis' family changed their names. It's one thing to change your first name and another to change your last name. Asians change their names to white ones in order to "fit in" but they don't change their last names to "Smith".

that's like saying Dwyane Wade can't be a true U.S. national :pachaha:

First you say Dennis' name come is courtesy of slavery, which is not true. Then you compare Dwayne Wade, an African American whose American origins stretch hundreds of years, to a German national, whom are generally white as Africans and the like were only allowed immigration to Germany a few decades ago (if that). Dennis' father being a multigenerational black African-German is unlikely but his father being non-black is virtually impossible. I guess the former sounds more plausible but that presupposes Dennis' father changed their names, which is something I don't like. Most African immigrants, in Europe or Americas, don't change their last names. That's unusual..
