Can you please explain that this was not so and Negro's came later.

While it is a common misconception to lump negroes (particularily those apelike pygmies and hottentots) into the "animal" category, which makes a lot of people assume Noah took a breeding pair of negroes along with the giraffes, gorillas, turtles, etc., the negroid race did not come about until after the flood. There are two reasons for this: The Bible tells us the negroes came to be after Canaan was cursed; that is postdiluvian.
Also, negroes couldn't be around before the flood AND after, because as we all know, negroes cannot swim. Pop quiz: Name a single negro Olympic swimmer. You can see my point.
