Senegalese Americans are Americans of Senegalese descent. In surveys of 2008 some 12151 people claimed to be of Senegalese descent in the United States. However many African slaves exported to the United States were also Senegalese (arrived together with other Africans that also came of their Senegalese ports). Thus many African Americans may also have some ancestors of this country.
