How are black people related to all other people?

Answer 1

The first humans were African. Or what some people call Black or African American. Until the past few years, the oldest evidence of life was the fossil belonging to Lucy, found in Ethiopia in 1997. (If you are Black then you know that this evidence was okay for white people because they like to say that Ethiopians are not really Black even though we all know that's a lie.) In recent years British Archaeologists have found even older human remains in the heart of Africa, in what is now known as Mozambique. The woman's fossil from Southern Africa is of course a Black woman. There is a scholar named Ivan Van Sertima, he teaches us that the reason some people are Africans, like the first person, is because of the environment they live in. Black people have hair that coils closely to their head because Africa is hot and short tight hair is less likely to get stuck in the thick African bush. The climate in Africa is the same reason Africans have wide noses. Dry heat causes ones nostrils to become wider. Finally, Africans have more melanin in their skin; the stuff that makes us brown, because Africa is so close to the sun that African skin would need to be able to process all those sun rays. As the sun's rays hit the surface of the skin it is melanin that processes this reaction- tanning. The more melanin present, the less work each cell has to do to process solar energy. Increased work of melanin cells results in wrinkles and skin cancer. Black people obviously have a lot of melanin so Black cells do not have to work as often, or be as strained as white skin cells, hence the expression, "Black don't crack." So to answer your question simply, Man is originally African. Black. Because Africa is connected to Asia, when Africans migrated they began to adapt to the Asian climate, by physically changing over time. For example, Asians have slighter eye shapes than others, this is because of the sharp winds that are present in Asia, and in parts of Africa. The shape of their eyes is for protection to be compatible with where they lived. As man moves about the globe, please notice the changes in physical features. Furthermore, The earth separated slowly. Land was once all together. If you look at the globe you can see that the patterns of the coast lines along the Atlantic Ocean in Africa and in America are like a jigsaw puzzle. One can plainly see how they could have been connected. The Earth's plates shifted slowly, over centuries, making it possible for life to exist in what is now known as South and North America.

AnswerThe question itself is posed in the wrong manner. "Black People" are related to everyone else this world in that we all compromise part of the same human race. Black white, yellow or brown(if you view the world in colors) are all part of the same species: the human species.

If your question was then if there exists a common genetic identity between all races, there does. We all derive from a common ancestor that made its home in Africa million of years ago.

AnswerThe Biblical record states that the sons of Noah (Shem, Ham, and Japheth) eventually went their separate ways after the flood with their respective families, and populated the earth accordingly. Genesis 9:19 states: These three were the sons of Noah; and from these the whole earth was populated.

Shem's family to the hills of the east, Ham's family to the north and abroad, and Japheth's family to the coast lands. It is interesting to note that random fluctuation in the frequency of an allele (paired genes, both governing the same trait) can be responsible for characteristic diversity in population groups depending upon the size of the group (Genetic Drift - The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia Copyright © 2004, Columbia University Press.

Answer 2

Black people are one of many diverse racial and ethnic groups that make up the human population. They share a common ancestor with all other humans and are part of the broader human family. The concept of race is a social construct that does not reflect significant genetic differences between people.
