Why did some Black Loyalists choose to return to Africa?
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

A Black Loyalist was a person of African descent who sided with the Loyalists during the American Revolutionary War. In particular, the term refers to men who escaped the enslavement of Patriot masters and served on the Loyalist side because of the Crown's promises of freedom.

Some 3,000 Black Loyalists were evacuated from New York to Nova Scotia; they were individually listed in the Book of Negroes as the British gave them certificates of freedom and arranged for transport. The Crown gave them land grants and supplies to help them resettle in Nova Scotia. Some of the European Loyalists who emigrated to Nova Scotia brought their slaves with them, making for an uneasy society. One historian has argued that those slaves should not be regarded as Loyalists, as they had no choice in their fates. Other Black Loyalists were evacuated to London or the Caribbean colonies.

Thousands of African slaves escaped from plantations and fled to British lines, especially after British occupation of Charleston, South Carolina. When the British evacuated, they took many former slaves with them. Many ended up among London's Black Poor, with 4,000 resettled by the Sierra Leone Company to Freetown in Africa in 1787. Five years later, another 1,192 Black Loyalists from Nova Scotia chose to emigrate to Sierra Leone, becoming known as the Nova Scotian settlers in the new British colony of Sierra Leone. Both waves of settlers became part of the Sierra Leone Creole people and the founders of the nation of Sierra Leone. Thomas Jefferson referred to the Black Loyalists as "the fugitives from these States". While most Black Loyalists gained freedom, some did not. Those who were recaptured by slave traders were sold back into slavery and treated harshly for having served under the British.

g homo habilis is the first species of the genus homo. it is [ select ] similar to other homo species, like homo erectus, than t
Natali5045456 [20]

Sahelanthropus, Orrorin, Ardipithecus, Australopithecus, and Paranthropus are just a few of the genera that exhibit postcranial transformation and canine reduction throughout the first four million years or so of hominid evolution. There is a concurrent change in the hominid fossil record as the Pliocene epoch came to an end and the world climate was changing about 2.5 million years ago. Something novel arose in this setting, both physically and behaviorally, as it became cooler. The genus Homo originated from this.

The commencement of the transition from primordial, large-brained, stone tool-making, meat-eating apes that spread out across the globe to the species Homo's beginnings in Africa is marked by this change. Three species, Homo habilis, Homo rudolfensis, and Homo erectus, are considered to be the earliest members of the human genus. It is well known that H. habilis was the first species to produce stone tools and that it still possesses basic characteristics that connect it to australopiths. Aside from the fact that H. rudolfensis shared both time and space with other early Homo and had a larger brain and set of teeth than H. habilis, little is known about this species. Thanks to its extensive fossil record, we now have a better grasp of the paleobiology and evolution of the more complex H. erectus. With a physique designed for contemporary striding locomotion, H. erectus was the first fully committed, obligate biped to emerge outside of Africa. It was also the first member of the human ancestry to leave Africa. The first Homo species are the ones who tipped our evolutionary history's scales away from the more ape-like direction and toward the more human one.
