[quote=Unregistere;5377170]The numbers of slaves in nothern US were insignicant to have to any impact on the nothern culture. It was not unusual for blacks to out number whites in some southern states though. The blending of European culture to give birth the southern twang is total BS. Pure conjucture.  Blending of European cultures occured in the north too.     How could Alex Haley truck his root to the Gambia if black lost eveything African the moment they landed on American soil?:rolleyes:  Remember Kunta Kinte?[/ quote]  Blacks were insignificant in the north? They made up 12 percent of New York!! That's more than in most places in the south!! The Black population in America is only at about 12 percent today! If Blacks were such creative musical geniuses surely you would have seen them playing Blues and Jazz and Rock in New York and other places in the north:rolleyes: Or in Brazil, Jamaica and Haiti where the percentage of Blacks dwarfed the percentage of Blacks in the American south:rolleyes::rolleyes: I know the truth, you don't, end of story. It's pointless for me to keep arguing with a primitive minded Black supremacist. See ya round kid.     Not really, most all northerners were Anglo. Go watch Gangs of New York and see how the Anglos reacted to the Irish, Catholic, non Anglo foreigners coming into New York. The north was very very homogenous up until the mid-late 1800s. The Irish,Italians,and Germans didn't start showing up until then(mid-late 19th century). Sooooooo yeah. Try again corky. And I know you will...     You mean that fictional character from a completely fictitious made for TV movie??Yeah....I remember:rolleyes:
