The "native" black American population appears to have been stagnant for decades (percentage wise) with no sign of change anytime soon, hoovering around 12-14% for about a century. The Caribbean islands (Haiti, Jamaica etc) don't have populations that are large or fast growing, so immigration from there won't cause a real big uptick in US black percentage, unless there is a mass migration and whole countries relocate to the US which is highly unlikely. Black/mixed Latinos from the Spanish Caribbean (Cuba, DR/PR) identify as mixed or white as they follow the opposite of the US one drop rule, one drop of white and you white, really Latino isnt a race and most should be characterized as mixed race under the census cuz thats what they are, but that's a whole nother topic.
So now on to Africa, Africa has the fastest growing population of all 7 continents, and most of the world's fastest growing countries are in Sub Saharan Africa. In fact, the most populous country in Africa, Nigeria now has 130 million people and is projected to have about 300 million by 2050 , just about 30 years away.
The US experienced its surge of Latin American immigration in the 1950s-90s, and Asian immigration in the 2000s and 2010s. But aside from the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade 400 yrs ago, the US has yet to experience a large scale modern-day African immigration, but it's coming. There are now about 1 million Africans in the US, mainly from countries like Nigeria, Senegal, Somalia, and Egypt, and many come to states like Maryland and Texas among others.
Some estimates say that the black percentage will largely stay at 13% by 2050, while Latinos and Asians grow percentage wise. But I dont think they factored in the fact Africa's super fast growing population. What do everyone else think?
Each uptick in percentage is a drop in percentage for another group. So, why would it be desired or necessary to encourage an increase in the AA percentage? Moreover, I thought Black people were mostly liberal and thus uninterested in most racial metrics?

I had to check the web address to make sure I hadn't inadvertently stumbled onto Stormfront.

For me or the OP? Are you sure that you didn't miss the support site for intellectual retards who enjoy relying on fifteen year old outdated cop-outs in place of arguments?
If white people are "nazis" for wanting an increase in racial percentage, then wouldn't the same hold true for Black people? Of course, I didn't go there. You did, and probably fatally derailed a thread with a lazy attack only about five posts in.
It's a lot harder to paddle across the Atlantic than across the Rio Grande. Are you asserting that there is any significant percentage of illegal African immigrants?
