Fulani in America

From my research and even this video it seems that the Fulani believed as I do immediately after they accepted the Qur'an and for some time later, i.e. that the Qur'an as well as the Torah and the Gospel are legitimate, with the Qur'an overruling the other two when they conflict. Is this true? Look at my videos to better understand what I am asking, especially the one named Reading the Qur'an Properly.

@PrinceNoirAmericain what you are saying about Fulani is untrue as shown by records from slave ships. Fulani ethnics were one of the major groups brought to America including the Caribbean. See Sterling Stuckey's work on the Fulani in the U.S. culture. The fact that so few A.A.s have had their dna taken and yet so many have come back partially Fulani in ancestry also proves this. Records also show other ethnic groups Yoruba, Bambara, Ewe, Ibo, Hausa, Soninke, Songhai, Tuareg, and Wollof, etc.

What does Kunta Kinte have to do with the Fulani. If anything he was either from the Mande or Kunta tribe of Mauretania.

google wall of return. You can find another one on the africanancestry website.

@PrinceNoirAmericain have you ever seen a Hausa-Fulani before? They are fucking ugly! This is far from beautiful.

@PrinceNoirAmericain there are more coastal Fulani that Sudanese ones.

@PrinceNoirAmericain "The fact that most slaves came from areas located in the western part of Africa (but let's not forget that a significant number of slaves came from Central Africa as well) does not mean that they endured massive enslavement as it is the case with other groups, to the point where a significant number of AAs are of partial Peul heritage."
Fulani are originally from Sene-Gambia region. Last time I looked at a map this was a coastal region termed Wind and Rice coast.

@PrinceNoirAmericain exactly and those who are fula are larger than you may think. Also, there is no such thing as 'pure' fulani. All Fulani are mixed depending on the region. Another thing is that if a Fula woman marries into another patrilineal culture she will no longer be Fulani. So when geneticists collect DNA samples, they do it based on cultural affiliation. This is another factor.

I cannot prove or disprove anything. I'm all about facts. As you stated, "very few AAs have done DNA testing".. Twenty is not a lot in comparison with the number of AAs having already taken the test. Both sides need numbers to back up their claims lol

@TheDamTrashMan Well I've came on YT to do some research and meet others from the same places as my ancestors and from what I've concluded...either they're ignorant or in denial. But ironically the few I've spoken with are educated...one has been educated here in the states but has no knowledge of AA history since it doesn't pertain to them. Go and speak to them and see what you get....be prepared to be heartbroken if you love them. And God forbid you do...
