Largest U.S. immigrant Groups over time

[Counter Racist Male]

Between 2000 and 2016, the black African immigrant population more than doubled, from 574,000 to 1.6 million. Africans now make up 39% of the overall foreign-born black population, up from 24% in 2000.Still, roughly half of all foreign-born blacks living in the U.S. in 2016 (49%) were from the Caribbean, with Jamaica and Haiti being the largest source countries.


As well as DR, Trinidad and Tobago and rest of Carribean. Not much African immigrants. It said Nigeria was the biggest one. Definitely lots of Caribbean folks down here. See some Africans but not as much. NYC has some as well as other major cities.

African go to centers of education and Florida ain't one of them.

Weapons of mass destruction? You know there are towns with people on the US border right?

This is the way

 

[Frangala]

Some of y'all act white supremacist. Many of all don't even try to understand the struggle of native black Americans.

Fix these problems then get back to us.

No people do understand the plight of Black Americans its just that the people mentioned in the post you responded to cloud invent messages with hyperbole such HIV rates in certain American cities are attributable to the African immigrant pop with no facts to back it up especially when that has been a trope to generalize Africa and Africans as diseased people.

You can make intelligent arguments about how immigration has an adverse impact on the opportunities of Black Americans. The namecalling makes people dismiss your arguments.

Its under 2 million. People hate facts.

Key facts about black immigrants in the U.S.

Wow, that's wayyyy less than I thought. I guess living in places with sizable african populations shaped my perception.

African go to centers of education and Florida ain't one of them.

True that. I've met a few thru my life but yeah, they definitely not coming to Florida for their education.

 

[Frangala]

Some of you are chosen by white people to jobs that should go to US. And SOME of have the nerve to talk down on us. Just sayin'.

Give me an example of a person or yourself know who was chosen as the sole purpose of that person being African.

Since you think white people are "choosing" read the article below

Nobody named called anyone. You guys acted like tYvette and Tariq are sages when the only point out the obvious; some Africans and Caribbean Blacks are being used to carry out proxy wars of defamation and deprivation of black Americans online and in the real world. To me the remedy is simple; out the haters amongst you groups.

Further confirms my belief that most people in the US very rarely interact with any Africans. Matter of fact I would say most people can live their entire lives without ever meeting an African.

I'm NOT anywhere in private meeting or homes where these conversations are being had. However SOME of you are. If you are our allies then the onus is on you to stick up for US when you can.

This includes Caribbean too. I'm NOT just singling out Black African immigrants.

Btw, I posted that NYT article over a week ago and it was mergered with another thread but it makes my point. Whites choose who they want to deal with. If they choose YOU because talk down on black Americans or agree with their antiblack narrative then your part if the problem.

Ok bro what empirical data do you have that whites are choosing Africans over Black Amerians just because they are African. I posted two articles in this thread supporting my stance. Please do the same or else this "you all" need to to do x y z is irrelevant.

I am not naive enough to tell you that there arent some Africans who are arrogant but this bogeyman attack that somehow the presence of African immigrants is directly or related to the plight of Black Americans is a myth. A recent group of less that 1.7m people directly responsible for the condition or at least significantly contributing to the conditions of 42-43 milion Black Americans is asinine.

there's not always empirical data for every trend That's starting to pop.

And no one claimed that you were responsible for the plight of the 40 million black Americans in America today. I also said that Caribbean black people also share some of the blame for this anti-black American sentiment too.

My experiences comes from mostly of conversation and jobs experiences with Jamaicans Haitians and Africans.

 

[Samori Toure]

Gee, I wonder what was the cause of that huge demographic shift after the late 60s and 70s?



You're welcome, non-white immigrant brehs.

White people started telling lies about Mexicans only doing jobs that Black people supposedly would not do certain jobs. Then the lying crackers started saying that Mexicans were only doing jobs that no Americans would work.

The truth is that Mexicans illegal aliens were brought in to cut wages for blue collar Americans. It was a back door way to allow businesses to remain in business, which is anti-capitalism, because in capitalism business that cannot compete are supposed to go under. That is supposed to make the economy stronger.

"and African-Americans are more likely than immigrants from Africa to say that colleagues have underestimated their intelligence."

So,

1. Afro-Caribbeans

2. Continental Africans.

3. AADOS

Just as we all figured. Whites show preference to good lil' black immigrants over the AADOS they enslaved and oppressed.
