The term ''African'' in the scope of this article refers to geographical or national origins rather than racial affiliation. From the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 to 2007, an estimated total of 0.8 to 0.9 million Africans immigrated to the United States, accounting for roughly 3.3% of total immigration to the United States during this period.〔Yoku Shaw-Taylor, Steven A. Tuch, ''The other African Americans: contemporary African and Caribbean immigrants in the United States'', Rowman & Littlefield, 2007, ISBN 978-0-7425-4088-0.〕 African immigrants in the United States come from almost all regions in Africa and do not constitute a homogeneous group. They include people from different national, linguistic, ethnic, racial, cultural and social backgrounds.〔David E. Kyoso, ''Immigrants in the United States'', (Godfrey Mwakikagile: 2010), p.110.〕 As such, African immigrants are to be distinguished from African American people who were involuntarily brought to the United States by means of the historic Atlantic slave trade. ==African presence in United States Immigration Legislation== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「African immigration to the United States」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
