From your link:They didnt get on ships like germans and italiansMaybe, maybe not. Believe it or not blacks know how to get on a ship just like Italians or Germans or anyone else does.
after slavery was abolished in 1865 black african immigration to America was non existent for over 100 years
It wasn't non existent but one could imagine why at that point they wouldn't want to come here.
During the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries, many thousands of Africans were forcibly brought to what is now the United States. Since the early twentieth century, it appears that more Africans have immigrated voluntarily than all those who had been brought earlier as slaves. Many have come as students to attend American schools. Others have been refugees fleeing repressive regimes, persecution, natural disasters, and harsh economic conditions in their home countries.
African immigration intensified after World War II, and an even more significant flow began during the 1970’s, after the American Civil Rights movement improved conditions in America for people of color.
African immigrants
Many early African immigrants came to the United States as students during the early 1920’s.

It doesn't matter. You said none. You were wrong.
