the british (and other europeans ) of course were peaceful colonizers, and were welcomed with open arms by the the indigenous peoples of the lands of the british empire ...
the british (and other colonial powers) were obviously only interested in africa from the point of view of providing africans with roads, railways, ports, education blah blah blah blah
these people loved the british so much, - that they wanted to move in with them..
surprise surprise - but plenty of blacks in africa , and muslims, and mediteranean types
if it was good enough for europeans to be in africa (and asia), it should be good enough for africans (and asians) to be in europe - along with their religions
