different theories...but the popular one that it was named from a roman general is most likely not true according to runoko rashidi....africanus meant conquerer of africa so africa was in use before africanus...

"black" is cool but it is colloquial & does not tell you much about a people except a vague skin-color description...many east indians, aboriginal australians & papua new guineans are also "black"

definitions & labels can change depending on the context...not all "black" people call themselves black either....most are not even black in color but various shades of brown...wha bout the red & yellow "black" people?
dr. clarke said a people are attached to their land...land is life
