African skin tones comes in a myriad of browns. Africans come in dark brown, which is over exaggerated to being called black, to light brown, or even yellow. Africans like other races can not be oversimplified as being one skin tone. And are not black, or negro.

yes this is true we are like other races , so you cannot say we are black coz black is sometghing that is very dark like coal and we are not the same other are just white like whiters and others yellow like coloureds , so what about Indian people somalians because they are not all white most of them are just a charcoal so when im with them i will be called black and they won't be caklled black , so why, so there is no black person and aniother thing is with the coloured people you will find that others are just black and full of afro on their heads and they will be saying no im yti(white) according to their accent... there is no black race grow up people

Probily because when people (white people) go out into the sun our skin produces this chemical that makes your skin look brown which reflects sun. In Africa it's almost sunny and hot there. Maby some sort of gean was produced in the First African making his skin black so it will reflect sun and he will live longer. Meanwhile the other person (not black) was getting to much sun and then died of cancer. The first African mated and they then reproduced.

Darker skin contains more of the pigment melanin and may also be thicker than lighter skin.

Because they have adapted to the UV sun rays;ultimately, the pigment of their skins turn black to reflect it.
