Wait ur saying Brazilians and Jamaicans are African Americans?...![]()
Yup. When you think about it Brazilian and Jamaican Black people were born in the Americas and they are descended from Africans just like Black people in the USA.
The term African Americans was coined by Black people in the USA for Black people in the USA, but in reality it is applicable to Black people descended from slaves in the Americas. If other Black people who ancestors were slaves in the Americas are not considered African Americans then how is Louis Farrakhan an African American, because both of his parents are from the Caribbean.
