Humans started out in Africa, we are all black, the color of skin is simply evolution, "Before the mass global migrations of people during the last 500 years, dark skin color was mostly concentrated in the Southern Hemisphere near the equator and light color progressively increased further away, as illustrated in the map below. In fact, the majority of dark pigmented people lived within 20° of the equator. Most of the lighter pigmented people lived in the northern hemisphere north of 20° latitude."

If humans started out in Africa. this doesn't make all people African American or Black. It makes the original homo sapiens of African origins. Because of evolution and genetics, we are now differentiated into various ethnicities.
