Italic text==Question== The Brazilian part in the second paragraph doesn't make sense. Is it Afro-Brazilian? Brazil has the largest black population outside the continent of Africa, after all. B-Machine (talk) 20:02, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Most likely it's the common admixture of Indigenous Brazilian and African since most of them are that. She doesn't get descriptive about it.Mcelite (talk) 18:16, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Say what? Brazil's black population is near 50%. Hello, stupid. Over 3 million Africans were transported to that country when it was a Portuguese colony. Maybe you're right, but I prefer to lean toward their numbers. And where do you get this stuff from? You want to be an Indian so bad, you're willing to...I'll stop there.

Ok before you get excited and think that I'll using my own personal opinion here are two sources clearly stating that Black Brazilians (Brazilians believed to have no admixture, despite that statics are leaning towards there actually being few just being of African descent) are the third largest and Pardos people mixed with Brazilian Amerindian and African are the second largest ethnic growth followed by the White Brazilian pop. which is mostly Portuguese and Italian descended. [1] Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística[2] (in Portuguese) (PDF). Retrieved 2007-09-14. Notice that this source in no way sums up the figures of "pretos" (Blacks) and "pardos"Also no I don't want to be Indian I am of Native American blood and it runs strong in my family and I'm a proud American.

She's not of Nigerian descent. http://www.eurweb.com/2015/11/yaya-dacosta-slams-antm-squashes-nigerian-roots-rumors/
