I just heard something in the car radio:
85% of African Americans have Native American ("Indian") blood in them.
Christo Columbus wanted to finance a crusade to take back the "holy land' from mohamedans. He went searching for India becos India had *gold*.
He came to N America instead, and found that it had millions of natives. He said something like "there are enough here to be sold to fill the needs of any buyer". He was first the transatlantic slave trader. Native Americans were sold to other countries.
Later, Native Am. went from 90 million to 10 million within a century. Because of white land grabbing.
Whites made an army out of their black slaves, called them "Buffalo soldiers". They were tasked with basically slaughtering Native Ams.
One black guy rebelled against this and left and later he wrote the 1st history of black people in America.
His name was Katz. See if I acn find the site. Here..
edit: seems I mixed up names..anyway,
