This is the best answer for such a stupid question. That was like asking where are the white people in ancient Japan? The ignorance abounding is unbelievable.
Someone should ask Gemini.
So yeah, this marxist attempt to rewrite history must be pushed back against.
Still in Africa living in grass huts and eating roots and berries. They haven’t even thought of sea-faring voyages.

Actually not - the west Africans along the Gold Coast were visited by the Portuguese in the mid-1600s. The Africans had running water, indoor plumbing, and very nice cities built entirely of wood. The amenities were left over from Roman times. They were very peaceful people and welcomed the Portuguese sailors.
Portugal at the time was the superpower and had the highest standard of living in Europe. The explorers begged the King to allow them to stay because the living conditions were so much better than in Portugal.
Alas, they were ordered to return home. The next incursion brought the beginning of European slave trade - slaves for firearms. The result was a competition to acquire slaves to sell.
This brought the end of the wooden west African civilization. Nothing remains now, as the jungle reclaimed all of it as the wood rotted and the vines and brush took over.
Apparently not Berbers but after the Romans had dealt with them they were definitely stuned.
There is a consensus he was something other than pure Japanese, and he is often considered descended from the Ainu, the darker-skinned indigenous people of northern Japan who were subjected to forced assimilation and colonization.

The Ainu are not of African descent. So there were no African blacks.
Where are all the Martians?
Most “black people” are too busy doing Oreo and SUV commercials to waste their time doing remakes of old 80s films.
I should have clarified Sub-Saharan Africa. North Africa along the Med was highly evolved for a long time as you say.
I saw a similar complaint about the movie “Black Hawk Down”, the bad guys were all black.
I thought that, too. “Gemini, draw me a picture of a Japanese Samurai in 1600.” I’ll bet it would be a hoot.
Maybe the answer to the question “Where are the black people” would be “Still in Gemini’s fertile brain.”
Watching TV today, particularly the ads is like watching TV in Capetown or Jo’burg.
Uh...Uh...Let me think..... this is a tough one....Um....Africa?
Lord Yoshii identifies as Black. Case closed.
WHERE ARE ALL DE WIMMENZ? Interesting period in Japan’s history, might give the pilot a spin...
That’s right.
Phoenicians?
You’re sure they weren’t from Scottsdale?
Where they belong.
Get used to it... Just like the English, Portuguese and Spaniards could never be Japanese in 1600... They can’t be Japanese today either and no black can either. There are two types of Japanese citizenships... Those who are Japanese, and those who are not. Those who are not can be citizens with a caveat... They aren’t Japanese.
It’s one of the most racist countries on earth.
