Led. Led is the past tense of lead.

Led, because led is the past tense of lead.

Led is the correct way. If you notice in the following sentence it says " the knights marched into the hall ", "marched" is in its past tense. the whole sentence is meant to be read in the past tense.

Personally, I think like your friend. I'm not from Africa so I can't be an African American. That would make black Africans who become American citizens, African African Americans. But I can't speak for everyone, so your best bet as a number of people have suggested is go with the term African American and when you get to know the person better, you can ask them their preference if you like. Just stay away from any word that can be misconstrued as a slur. As for Wendy1......what are you talking about? Your answer doesn't go with the question.

"LED by Norman..."
Led is past tense, and marched is past tense. all the verb tenses in a given sentence must be the same.
lead is present.
hope that helped!
