    Neither did I.

    Oh, you mean our ancestors. You’re over-generalizing. Many black people did not voluntarily come to the US, but many have, both since collonial times through today. Things got worse in the US for blacks throughout the 1700’s and after, but by no means is every black person in the US descended from involuntary (enslaved) immigrants. Voluntary immigration of black people has continued since emancipation through today in healthy numbers. Most of us did not choose to be born here.
