Unhyphenated Black American

A person who belongs to the broader collective of the Black American ethnic group.
As an unhyphenated Black American, it’s striking how our culture adapts regionally across the States while remaining largely the same at its core.

Hyphenated Black American

A person belonging to one of the three historic and culturally continuous subgroups within the Black American collective, each marked by a distinct heritage that diverges from the broader Black American culture: Black Louisiana Creoles, Gullah Geechee, and Northeast slave descendants.
There’s something especially exciting about the fact that all hyphenated Black Americans like Black Louisiana Creoles, Gullah Geechee, and Northeast slave descendants have their own distinct cuisine and language.

Foundational Black Americans/FBA

An ethnic group/lineage of Negroid(wooly-haired and melanated) people of whom one group are descendants of the Negroid people brought over to North America from the continent of Africa via the Trans-Atlantic slave trade as bondmen and bondwomen. This aforementioned group's lineage goes back to at least the early 1600's on the continent of North America. Then there is a second group whose ancestors inhabited the lands of North America indigenously for thousands of years. This aforementioned group of Negroid's ancestors mixed in with the Manchurians (Chinese) whom arrived on the west coast of North America in 499 led by a Chinese Buddhist missionary named Hoei Shin. Hoei Shin named this land now known as North America 'Fusang'. The mixing in of the two groups of Manchurians (Chinese) and indigenous American Negroids produced the group of people known today as the American Indians. Over time the Indigenous Negroids of North America and those Negroids that arrived on the continent as bondmen and bondwomen intermingled and had an ethnogenesis which produced a unique culture and people being described presently as Foundational Black Americans/FBA. Other immigrant groups, especially other Negroid groups, have tried to characterize Foundational Black Americans/FBA as a cult, a hate group and as xenophobic. All of these characterizations are patently false. Foundational Black Americans/FBA are indisputably an ethnic group/lineage.
Those Negroid people brought over to North America via the Trans-Atlantic slave trade as well as those descendants of the Negroid indigenous groups that inhabited North America before the arrival of European colonizers; they both comprise the ethnic group/lineage now known as Foundational Black Americans/FBA.
