AFRICAN IS NOT A RACE.

Anthropology: Negroid adj.

The term has its etymological roots in Latin, i.e. black, with the earliest recorded use of the term “Negroid” in 1859.

""... if the dissolution of the Union should result from the slave question, it is as obvious as anything that can be foreseen of futurity, that it must shortly afterwards be followed by the universal emancipation of the slaves. A more remote but perhaps not less certain consequence would be the extirpation of the African race on this continent, by the gradually bleaching process of intermixture, " - John Quincy Adams, 1820
