should BLACKS "re-focus" on "WEST-INDIES"??

A Puerto-Rican Leads the Way??
A Puerto-Rican, exploiting Black RAP, from the Mainland USA, has achieved quite a feat!  He got  tacit admission from the White Establishment, that Alexander Hamilton was BLACK; according to the standards of that time!!  An infectiously exciting and informative Play on Broadway: "Kudos" for HAMILTON! http://variety.com/2016/legit/news/hamilton-actors-profit-sharing-deal-1201755004/

Hamilton, a Founding "Father", and, first Secretary of the Treasury, came to us from the WEST-Indies.

We all learned in White History, as taught in our Public School System, about the Dutch and British EAST India Trading Companies.  Mentioned, only in passing, were the corresponding WEST India Trading efforts.  Turning to Wikipedia for a "refresher", we learn that the French, British, Danish, Spanish, AND Dutch (Netherlands, today), formed the WEST Indies.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Indies

The Greater Antilles (Cuba, Puerto Rico, Haiti, Dominican Republic, Bahamas, Turks & Caicos); and Lesser Antilles   ( the smaller Islands, from the Virgin Islands, down to Trinidad).  The region also includes Venezuela, Columbia, Panama, what is now Central America, Can-Cun, and Cayman Islands -- ALL of the PRETTY PLACES!

WHY should BLACKS be interested?  Because, shortly after Columbus landed there, the Catholics inspired the establishment of the African Slave Trade.  As Herskovits clearly documents in his 1941 book: The Myth of the NEGRO Past; The TRADE failed to erase AFRICAN roots of New World Cultures.  The multiple forms of Genocide practiced in what is now the United States, from 1619 until 2016,  failed to turn Blacks in the USA into what Drucker called "White Americans with dark skins"!  The Republican Party makes that fact evident in their choices for President in 2016.
As the entire world enters into Global Identity Crises; Persons with African Roots, traceable back to the WEST INDIES, may find this region a treasure trove of customs, beliefs, and wisdom; as well as enlightenment, regarding the ways Whites brought about the tragedies "we" (all races) suffer from in 2016!
Stay Vigilant!  The Herskovits work, was part of the larger Gunnar Myrdal project commissioned by the Carnegie Corporation, and announced in its Annual Report of 1938.  All Blacks should read it!
