Please. Just what country have blacks ever colonized. Haiti was given to them. As was the Dominican Republic. Liberia was a gift by America. Which one would you live in ?

No, I don't get the point ! Most of those Countries are Countries of origin. But you're saying they colonized Spain, and Australia ? Please explain.

At one point Australia had no black people. Then they colonised it.

At one point Spain had no black people. Then they colonised it. (Then they were invited to leave again).

At one point South Africa was populated by some peoples, then Shaka Zulu went on the warpath and killed them, colonising their lands.

That pattern has been repeated across Africa.

If you want to call African countries 'countries of origin' because the colonisers subsequently migrated on, then the USA is a country of origin for white people, as Americans migrate on too.

But don't ask me, I'm biased. My country of birth was invaded and colonised during my lifetime.
