Did the group face prejudice, segregation, racism or any combination of three while immigrating to the United States? If so how and why?

Yes, they were enslaved brought to the Americas in small ships with two hundred people in each room. Then when they got here, they had to serve and bow their heads to the whites. After about two hundred years they were finally set free but still were second class citizens. It was until 1963 that they stopped being segregated from the whites and became citizens with all rights. This was African American History in a nutshell.

No, because African Americans were born in the United States unlike illegal aliens of today trying to sneak in and breaking laws doing so!
African Americans have nothing to do with illegal aliens invading our country.

4 to 10 Million illegal aliens from our Southern boarder crossed into the United States in 2005 alone!

In the first place, these people did not immigrate to the United States.
Originally, they were brought here as slaves!

Sorry but if they are immigrants they aren't African Americans.
African Americans, which is a stupid phrase as not all blacks are of African descent, only refers to those born in America.

I can't think of words to describe your question. I think that you might be the most uninformed, insensitive person on Earth.
Sometimes I wish I could do some of these discussions face to face because this message board forum is really not very conducive to debate.
But with you, I think I can say that it is a privilege to never meet you.

African Americans don't immigrate here, they are already here. If you are talking about the negroes, they do face prejudice and racism, specially if they are hispanic...

Africans were brought here mostly against their will. The creek jumping wetbacks sneak in to steal from us. You need your *** kicked for trying to compare the two.
