List of Afro–Puerto Ricans

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of notable Puerto Ricans of significant African ancestry, including visually mixed-race individuals, which represents a significant portion of the Puerto Rican population. It includes people born in or living in the mainland United States. This list contains the names of persons who meet the Notability criteria, even if the person does not have an article yet. Additions to the list must be listed in alphabetical order by surname.

Each addition to the list must also provide a reliable verifiable source which cites the person's notability and/or the person's link to Puerto Rico, otherwise the name will be removed.
