Works on Black people in countries whose racial composition is predominantly black are assigned headings appropriate for the country as a whole without the use of the heading [Black people.] The heading [Black people] is assigned to works on such countries only if the work discusses Black people apart from other groups in the country.

Here are entered works on Black people as an element in the population. Theoretical works discussing the black race from an anthropological point of view are entered under [Black race.]

Directory metadata is not a factual answer or evidence of a global knowledge gap.
