Your Definition

[Foundational Black Americans] are the descendants of the Black people who survived one the greatest atrocities in recorded history-American slavery. FBA are the descendants of the Black people who built the United States from scratch.

But this history did not start in 1619. The history of FBA started almost 100 years earlier.

The first documented foreign settlers in the New World of North America were the enslaved Black people who were brought over by Spanish colonizer Lucas Vázquez de Ayllón in 1526.

Shortly after Ayllón and the 600 other Spaniard's arrival to the area that would later become the South Carolina/Georgia coast, the enslaved Black captives launched a successful revolt, forcing the few

remaining Spanish enslavers to ultimately retreat from the area, back towards the Caribbean.

The liberated Black people amalgamated into the local Native American society, and this was a new historic chapter in what would ultimately become the culture of [Foundational Black Americans].

Since 1526, the culture of [Foundational Black Americans] has been that of building, resisting, perseverance, and fighting for justice. FBA are exceptional people and we recognize, celebrate and give honor to that lineage.
