Gambian Americans are Americans of Gambian descent. Only 3035 Americans reported Gambian ancestry in the 2000 census. However like happened with most of present coast countries of West Africa (and of some countries of Central Africa) many slaves of present Gambia were imported as slaves to the present United States by which the number de African Americans with some Gambian ancestor must be more higher. Gambian immigrants are of ethnics such as the Mandinka.
