yes many of their ancestors were from Africa which makes them "African American" but their nationality would be American, if they were born here.
NO! Black Americans are of mixed heritage, being part Native American, part European, & in some cases part Asian. They are American like Italians are Italian even if the Italian person has some African blood. Black Americans are tied to America by their Native American ancestry. That's why there is such a variation in the looks of many. When one studies history, one finds this out. The term African American is a misnomer & negates the other members of a black Americans family tree. Why not be honest about what you are & use terminology that shows this?
The European explorers traveled to Africa, where they began a trans-Atlantic slave trade that would bring millions of Africans to the America.

It wasn't America that forced Africans into America, it was Ronald McDonald. He had a major grudge against black people so he decided to bring them to America to be made into hamburgers (some of the first big macs were made of black people). But he earned more money by selling them off as slaves. Also yes they were forced in America.
Black Americans are mainly the descendants of black Africans. And most of those were brought to America as slaves, originally.

They are black because of the intense solar radiation in the equatorial regions in Africa. The presence of the dark pigment melanin prevents skin damage in that environment. The black people around the world (and especially Latin America) are descendants of Africans and similar equatorial races.
Most Africans were not directly tricked into coming to America. Many Africans were tricked into slavery which lead to their delivery to America.
Yes, as with America, african people were taken to Brazil as slaves.
