Someone keeps vandalizing this page and putting non-Af-Ams on this list (such as Adolf Hitler). It's really not funny, and I feel sorry for whoever's wasting his life doing that. You need a hobby, Mr. Anonymous Loser. Aroundthewayboy 14:07, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
I was startled to find Alex Haley, the author of Roots and Malcolm X missing from the list. Less startled by Chester Himes, the Harlem Hammett not being there. Himes wrote the Gravedigger Jones -- Ed Coffin Phelps series.

[edit] some help?
Would any Langston Hughes fans mind helping me out, over on page color metaphors for race? One "PhilWelch" keeps trashing and reverting the page I started. I'm 141.161.54.36 . Thank you! Your additions are much welcomed.
The input of experienced Wikipedians who grasp NPOV is especially welcome. Tverbeek 1 July 2005 04:42 (UTC)

[edit] Changes on March 8, 2007
I removed the two columns setting to make the list one column again because room needs to be made for information on individuals. I've added some information on individuals taken from the now-deleted "List of African Americans". That list had footnotes, which I've retained here. More footnotes are needed.
