    Allow me to un-confuse you.

    "August 8, 2017
    Although the percentage of black Americans smoking tobacco has declined for years, 9 in 10 black people who do say they use menthol cigarettes.
    Although the percentage of African-American smokers has declined for years, to this day, 9 in 10 black people who do smoke say they use menthol-flavored cigarettes, according to the latest peer-reviewed data.

    Menthol is the only flavored cigarette not outlawed by the 2009 Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act."
    https://www.newsy.com/stories/menthol-cigarettes-still-a-problem-for-black-americans/

    "Menthol is a mint-flavored compound that reduces the harsh taste of smoke inhalation. While menthols make up 35 percent of the overall cigarette market, an entrenched racial disparity exists, at least in part as a result of targeted marketing by tobacco companies: 89 percent of black smokers prefer menthols."

    "African-Americans, who, when compared to the general population, are disproportionately burdened by tobacco. 45,000 African-Americans die unnecessarily due to smoking tobacco. 80% of African-American smokers smoke menthol cigarettes."

    https://blackamericaweb.com/2019/10/21/video-shows-coach-disarming-embracing-oregon-student/

    "The most striking example is menthol cigarettes. These cigarettes, which are easier to smoke and harder to quit, have long been marketed to the black community. About 85 percent of all black smokers use menthol cigarettes, a rate that is nearly three times higher than white smokers."
    https://truthinitiative.org/researc...al-justice-issue-racial-and-ethnic-minorities

    "The majority of African Americans who smoke use menthol cigarettes.
    • Seven out of 10 African American youth ages 12-17 who smoke use menthol cigarettes.6
    • A higher percentage of black adults who smoke started by using menthol cigarettes (93%) than white adults who smoke (44%)."

    By now you probably have your mind right. If you need more just reply. Google has 11,100,000 links on this topic.

    Britain, France and Spain had flags so counted the Indians had no flags so were losers. Noting Anglo civilization won and dominated the New World.

    The Conquistadors essentially conquered the Americas on their own-I think there were a few hundred.
