race and climate - a thought experiment

Black Africans will become an increasingly large share of the global population during this century, and many of them will settle abroad in countries that have winter.

How will that play out? African Americans adapted to cold climates, but they were forced to. 

There is an intriguing book about an African man from Togo who went to live in Greenland:

The book recounts all the many episodes one expects from adventure literature: trouble at home, imagining a better life elsewhere, the struggle to find that life, disillusionment with certain hard facts that rub against bookish fancies, and the return, a state of mind where the author is more mature and more in touch with reality.

It amuses me that Bokonon is also the name of the founder of a satirical religion in Vonnegut's novel Cat's Cradle. 

Anyway, I have a hard time seeing large numbers of Africans settling other continents the way Europeans did, and for the same reason large numbers of Europeans are not settling the Sahara or Antarctica or Siberia.
