Not a notable expression or concept. The article is mainly about black people (mostly Americans such as Tiger Woods and Tina Turner) who are of the Buddhist faith. There is nothing very remarkable about this, nor do the people seem to form any kind of group or community. A little extra is thrown in about Southern Indian Buddhists who have dark skin and might also be called "black." I will also nominate Buddhist Nation which seems to be related since there is a proposal to merge the two articles.

- Delete what's good is unremarkable; what is remarkable is probably not true. The article all but says that there's no connection between race and Buddhism. Mangoe (talk) 13:25, 18 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
