They probably can, given there are more famous black Americans to choose from. Malcom X, Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks, etc.

Read the title of the thread. While half of Britons can't name a black historical figure, I bet 99% of Americans can name a Black British historical figure either. I sure can't.
