Original Note:
Sarmiento (president of Argentina, 1868-74) reportedly led a ‘covert genocide’ of Afro-Argentines. By 1875, so few remained that they weren't included in the census. Ex-President Menem later (1990s) claimed: "In Argentina, blacks do not exist. That is a Brazilian problem." https://www.theroot.com/true-or-false-there-are-no-black-people-in-argentina-1790876367
