Can white people from Africa be African American?

Yes. There are many African Americans with extremely light and fair skin. Many people of African lineage are so fair that they have lived in the white world and their friends and sometimes family have no idea they have African heritage. There have been some very interesting documentaries produced on the topic. Modern DNA testing has shown that most African Americans have European ancestors which was, in most cases, not by choice. Passing as white has always been a way for light skinned African Americans to gain opportunities that would otherwise be denied. There are stories of slaves who escaped slavery because they could pass as white. See related link.


What was the purpose of the pan-african movement?

The purpose of the movement was, and continues to be, to establish independence for African nations and cultivate unity among black people throughout the world. The movement began in the 19th century, but was encouraged by five conferences held in London between 1900 and 1923. The movement led to the founding of the OAU (Organization of African Unity) in 1963, now known as the African Union.

How many people of African descent are killed each day?

There is no way to determine this. First because the term "African descent" (present thinking is that all people are ultimately of African decent) or as it appeared in a previous version of the question "black people" is undefined. Secondly because these statistics are not universally obtainable for the world even if "black people" was a defined term. Thirdly because the parameters for "killed" are not defined - whether by accident, sickness, crime, old age etc.
