Thats the problem with white culture though. They feel so inferior they feel the need to lie about who got here first.I have no idea what your link had to do with my claim. Besides Blacks made it here long before Colulumbus did. The natives told him about it and he wrote about it his diary. Even sent back the gold alloy spear heads the natives traded for with the west Africans to Spain.Without a Black person Columbus would have never made it here. America does not mean white. Lots of races are american.Too bad they did none of those things without the help of Black people. For example. You wouldnt be on the internet if not for a Black person.
Without an America there would have been no internet. What makes America special is it gathered intellectual wealth from all over the world. Contributions came from everywhere.
well absolutely, ive never claimed otherwise. The so called white people are quite diverse as well, coming from all parts of the world.
So heres some perspective to the claim of a black navigator,
Christopher Columbus, Multicultural
The Unfolding Journey: AFRICAN EXPLORERS AND SETTLERS OF THE NEW WORLD
"A navigator and explorer of African ancestry, Pedro Alonso Nino traveled with Christopher Columbus’ first expedition to the New World in 1492. He was also known as “El Negro” (The Black). Pedro Nino was the pilot of Columbus’ ship the “Santa Maria.” In 1493, he also accompanied Columbus on the explorer’s second voyage which discovered Trinidad and the mouth of the Orinoco River in South America, piloting one of the 17 ships in the fleet. "
I can care less who made it here first. Guaranteed there was someone before them from asia. But as far as Europeans go Coloumbus was the first for them. So from their perspective its a benchmark
