Original Note:
There is no historical evidence of black samurai in ancient Japan. The samurai class, emerging around the 10th century, was exclusively Japanese. Although there were foreign visitors, no credible records show black individuals becoming samurai. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_foreign-born_samurai_in_Japan
