I honestly find that African-Americans look quite different from Afro-Colombians (or indeed any Afro-Latino group).

All of the Americas has all kinds of people. You should live in the USA there is no difference among all of the people.

nope. why would they? they are absolutely interchangeable. you can pull out the anglo colonial admixture in AFRAMS card, but that ain't gonna cut it because even people who are only 50-60% black can look as black as those who are fully black. besides, both groups come from west african ethnic groups, so they look pretty much the same.

If I were to instead open a thread comparing White Americans and White Colombians, you might change your mind.:D

Afro-Colombians (like most Afro-Latinos, even Dominicans) have considerably more Euro and Amerindian admixture than Afro-Americans do, and it shows.

Are Black people of the Americas really discussed that much here, aside from disparaging threads about crime and intelligence?

I thought they were mixed? I lived in the USA my entire life, have lots of good black friends, teachers, work out friends, football buds etc. IQ posts are country of origin, USA blacks are smarter than African Blacks on average. AA commit violent crimes per capita much more so than others in the USA. FACTS.

Even African-Americans have lower IQ on average than Whites, though still higher than that of Africans in Africa.

If you believe the testing and reported stats. But yeah Whites put people into space and landed on the moon, duh. And some AAs worked on the programs but educated in the USA. And no I don't believe Hotep black crap about ancient Egypt either.

Yes, Afrocentrism is bollocks.

They are interchangeable except for the lighter Colombian ones who have a Hispanic look to them.

Perhaps I should open a thread featuring both White and Black people from the US and Colombia and get people to guess the nationality of each person.:D

Afro-Colombians are mostly Zambos.
