Why was most African American businesses established in the south rather than in the north?
Most African American businesses were established in the South due to the historical context of segregation and limited economic opportunities in the region. After the Civil War, many newly freed African Americans sought to build their own enterprises in communities where they faced discrimination, leading to the growth of Black-owned businesses. Additionally, the South had a larger African American population, which created a customer base for these businesses. In contrast, the North, while offering more opportunities, also had significant competition and systemic barriers that made it challenging for African Americans to establish businesses.

No. (excuse me, but is every person who has ever lived in Kenya an African? Also, are all Kenyan's African?") His biological father is a black Kenyan and his mother is white and from Kansas.

Is you were born in Africa and live in America are you African American?
No, there are other criteria. There are many ethnicities represented in Africa. If an Afrikaner were to move to America, he would not be referred to as an African-American. To be an African-American, a person would need to be of Congoid (Black African) ancestry but born in America. It is puzzling how, from a distance, anybody can know which continent a person was born on but, because "Black" and "Negro" fell out of favor, the term is used rather loosely to describe anybody of Congoid (also called Negroid) ancestry who happens to be in the United States.
How many people in Africa are African-American?
Not a significant number. Though some could consider those in Liberia to be the most "african-american", since Liberia was established to send black slaves from the US "back" to Africa. To be African-American presumably means that your ancestry is in Africa and you are in America. This is a rather outdated term and not descriptive, however, since most "African-Americans" living in America know little of their ancestry in Africa and as are established in America as any other person. They feel the same culture shock, etc, while in Africa.
