cultural factors have been proposed as an explanation for the success of african immigrants. for example, it is claimed they often integrate into american society more successfully and at higher rates than other immigrants groups due to social factors. one being that many african immigrants have strong english skills even before entering the u.s., many african nations, particularly former british colonies, use english as a lingua franca. because of this, many african immigrants to the u.s. are bilingual. overall, 70 percent of black african immigrants either speak english as their primary language or speak another language but are also fluent in english. compare this to 48% "proficiency" in english for other immigrant groups.
