Yes. The vast majority of Africans are racially Black. However, this does not give them a common culture or a common history and Africa is far more determined by the tribal structure than based on skin color. The only large non-black populations in Africa are the Amazigh & Arab populations to the north of the Sahara (which accounts for nearly 150 Million people) and the Afrikaaners, Boers, and White Settlers sprinkled throughout the continent, but most concentrated in South Africa. These White Africans make up something close to 20 Million individuals. Africa has in total 1.02 Billion People.

The "New Encyclopedia of Africa," by John Middleton, shows Sub-Saharan Africa's 2005 population at 698 million. By 2010, 730 to 780 million Africans might identify themselves as Black. No reliable data, however, speak to the question, suggests Middleton. North Africa has almost no Blacks, implies a study at pubmed.org

It depends on where you're looking.

In the US, blacks represent a minority of the overall population, but a majority of the population in some areas.
