Togolese Americans
Togolese Americans are Americans of Togolese descent. According to answers provided to an open-ended question included in the 2000 census, 1,716 people said that their ancestry or ethnic origin was Togolese.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Table 1. First, Second, and Total Responses to the Ancestry Question by Detailed Ancestry Code: 2000 )〕 An unofficial estimate in 2008 of the Togolese American population was more than 2,500.〔("Togolese immigrants work hard to give back to their communities", ''Quad-City Times'', reported by Barb Ickes, 25 May 2008 )〕
== History ==
The first people from day-present Togo emigrated to modern United States arrived as slaves during the colonial period. So, we should mention to Cudjo Lewis (ca. 1840 – 1935), considered the last person born on African soil to have been enslaved in the United States when slavery was still lawful and arrived to Mobile from Dahomey in 1859.〔"Question of the Month: Cudjo Lewis: Last African Slave in the U.S.?", by David Pilgrim, Curator, Jim Crow Museum, July 2005, webpage:(Ferris-Clotilde ).〕
However, after the abolition the slavery, the Togolese migration to United States was scare. So, in the 2000 US Census, just over 1,000 people claimed Togolese origin.
