First Question

Cape Coloureds and Blacks
Are they the Same? Or are they two different ethnic groups.

What I read from wikipedia.

In the late 17th century Slaves were imported to the Cape maily from Madascar and The Indonesian acepelego.. later slaves from java saint helena
jndia and malaysia followed. and a new race group emerged from the union all people creating the Cape Coloured ethnicity. The Cape malay further contributed to the Coloured ethnicty

The Coloureds were later divided into these subgroups following the GROUP AREAS ACT OF south in 1950

THESE ARE THEIR SUBGROUPS
1. Cape Asian - Slaves brough to Cape in the late 1700s that all intermarried
2. Eurasian - half Caste (Cape dutch + Asian Slave)
3. Mulatto -(white and African or khoisan)
4. Cape Coloured - Asian european and African African that have all interbreed over the years.
5. BASTERS - khoisan-that married either Asian eurasian or caucasian people over the years
