This work is an Afrocentric analysis that subscribes to the notion that there is one human race of multiple ethnicities.<\/strong> It acknowledges Mexico<\/a>\u2019s African, Amerindian<\/a> (herein after called First Nations<\/a>), Asian, and European ethnic heritages. Contrary to the African-disappearance-by-miscegenation<\/a>-hypothesis-turned-ideology, it introduces the theory of the widespread Africanization of Mexico from the sixteenth century onward.<\/p>\n
