This includes members of the "African diaspora" resulting from the Atlantic Slave Trade such as Black British, Afro-Latin Americans, African Americans, Afro-Caribbeans, and Black Canadians.

GNU Free Documentation License Why did some African Americans support the Civil Rights Movement more than others? Q. When answering this question please take into account that African Americans responded in different ways according to different factors such as age, life experience, family responsibilities, fear, religion, education, economic position, individual traits and whether they lived in the city or the suburbs. How did these factors influence African-American support, avoidance or rejection of the Civil Rights Movement? Asked by Zigma 7 - Sun Apr 26 15:35:49 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. There were two phases of civil rights. The first was more a struggle for integration while the second was a Black Power movement.

I lived in Africa(Uganda) for many years and i saw most of the best looking women. Most African Americans love wearing fake hair,(Like red hair, hair straightaning) and they still look ugly compared to many natural looking Africans.

Though you worded this in a very harsh way, there is some truth to what you are saying. I believe Africans look better than African Americans because they do not try to fit into the White standard of beauty with hair straighteners, contacts and such. Real Africans embrace their unique beauty, which makes them beautiful;P Answered by Smitty Werben Man Jensen - Wed Sep 10 21:35:00 2008 What did african americans where during the civil war?
