BLACK SOCIAL HISTORY : BLACK INDIANS : AFRICANS OF INDIAN DECENTS :

Many of Indians Kings and Princes recruited  Africans as their Minister, Personal Body Guards and Musicians. In some part of India they even rose to be powerful Generals or Kings them selves. Africans have a long links with India, long before Europeans arrived on the scene, some came as traders, merchants, or mercenary soldiers, others came as slaves, though it appears to this sort of slavery was different to European slavery. In India and the Arab world, African slaves were not regarded as lesser human beings and in many cases rose to prominent positions of power in India up until Independence two Kingdom ( Janjura and Sachin ) were run by African Dynasties.



































A few hundred years ago India was a global and less Bigoted place like today. Deep in the jungles of Gujarat State in Western India, a forgotten tribe of African has quietly lived for the past 1000 years. Little is known about their origins and many now fear their unique heritage may already be lost.
