Yes, I was wonder if there were Black African Popes? I know North Africa has produced great Christian leaders and thinkers like St. Augustine.

If you are absing it on race/color - then as far as I know there has never been a black Pope in Rome. The patriarchs of Alexandria are also called Popes and have been since Apostolic times but their popes were mostly Alexandrians so not blacks there as well.
