African Americans?

Migration of African Americans into USA started in the later part of 17th Century. The immigrants were Muslims religion-wise. They were compelled to become christians by their

masters.

Today African Americans are no more Africans. They are

Americans by birth and nationality as much as the white Americans.are. . I wonder what would be the percentage of

Afro Americans among the Afro Americans in USA who follow Islam. which was their original religion..

    Arab Muslims went in the interior regions of Africa and captured African villages for slaves and brought them to the shores to sell them off to Europeans. Mainly English merchants who in turn sold them to Americans.Most of these slaves were not Muslims and had their own tribal beliefs.
