Scripture of The Day - 1 John 4:1
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world
Escritura del día - 1 Juan 4,1
Amados, no creáis a todo espíritu, sino probad los espíritus si son de Dios; porque muchos falsos profetas han salido por el mundo.
Bibelstelle des Tages - 1 Johannes 4,1
Geliebte, glaubet nicht jedem Geist, sondern prüfet die Geister, ob sie von Gott sind! Denn es sind viele falsche Propheten hinausgegangen in die Welt.
When African Americans Claim a BlackFoot Indian Heritage: Understanding the Black and Indian Mix
A Questionable BlackFoot Indian Heritage?
It's common knowledge that the Black and Native American mix exists in the United States. However, when African Americans, particularly those with families from states such as Mississippi, claim a BlackFoot Indian Heritage, a questions arises. How could this particular Black and Indian mix take place? The BlackFoot, also known as the BlackFeet are not from the southern states such as Mississippi. While this sounds like a legitimate question, it generally is asked by someone who does not understand how loosely the terms "BlackFoot" and "BlackFeet" Indian is, and always have been used.
The Southern Black and Native American Mix
More than one tribe of Native American Indians were called the BlackFeet/BlackFoot tribe in history. The Sioux of the Cheyenne River, the BlackFeet of the Rocky Mountain region, the Choctaw, the Cherokee, and the "half-breeds," who were Black and Indian, were all commonly called "BlackFeet" or "BlackFoot."
Many African Americans have family roots in the southern state of Mississippi. This is one of the states where Native Americans in history, especially members of the Choctaw tribe, frequently intermarried with Blacks. Those Native Americans themselves, as well as the children they had with African Americans, were commonly called "BlackFeet." They were also called "BlackFoot tribe Indians." No one questioned their genuine BlackFoot Indian heritage, because the use of the terms was understood in that part of the country.
African Americans researching their family roots in which there might be BlackFoot Indian heritage would do well to keep these helpful facts in mind.

Indians (Native Americans) of Africa descendant were enslave on the west coast of America, therefore it is not surprising.
The majority of black folks in MS started out in VA, NC, SC, the West Indies, etc.
The other thing is Native Americans were not stationary, and could have been captured while hunting or traveling.

This article is wrong. I have plenty of sources to prove my point, but the Natives (Copper colored, Semitic Hebrew Israelites) were captured, labeled black/negro/mulatto and taken into slavery before being shipped to different parts of Europe as well as various parts of Africa and the Americas. The Spanish conquistadors are depicted as being white Europeans, however it is more likely that the majority of them were Sephardic Jews (Moors/Moabites/Jebusites/Elamites aka Caananites/Hamites) that converted to Catholicism to escape the persecution brought about by 1492 Dum Diversas (a Papal Bull effectively deeming non Christians/Catholics as enemies of the Church, subjecting them to conversion or persecution). The Moors knew about America because it was inhabited by Canaanites before Joshua ran them out. The Land of Canaan was in the Promised Land (Shems Lot). That said, after Joshua onslaught, the survivors went into what we today know as Africa. The first was Cush, later his father Ham and his family followed as did the word Ethiopia. If the first inhabitants of Africa (post flood) came from America, there no way the copper colored races of America are of Hamitic origin, unless they mixed with the Moors that came back after fleeing from the Spanish. Plenty of the tribes from Canada to South America have flood legends, versions of Moses parting the red sea, leaving their homeland and traveling for generations,dealing with Giants, even arcs of the covenant. Columbus came in 1492, they were enslaving us long before they went into Africa. If you look into the book of Prophecies that he wrote, he states that he was heading to America to find the Holy Land, modern scholars agree that Vespucci believed the same as well. All of this is verifiable, in fact many of these books are available for free online at archive.org.

Your comment is a string of ramblings that have nothing to do with the article, which speaks of African Americans and Native Americans called Black Feet. Where in the article did you read about the origin of these people? NOWHERE. NO part of the article talks about their native lands or any of the other things about which you ramble. The article simply states that many African Americans have family roots in southern states, and that the Black Fleet were NOT from the south. That is a completely true statement. It appears you do not understand what it means for someone to have family roots in Mississippi. That does NOT mean Mississippi is their native land. It means their parents and grandparents and great-grandparents were born in Mississippi. That is a very simple concept that seems to have escaped you.
