I decided to check out Eris during the time that the first African slaves were traded to the English colonists in Jamestown,Virginia by the Dutch. They were the cargo that originally belong to the Portuguese who were the Europeans that started and dominated the Tranatlantic slave trade. I used the asteroids 11207 Black,1193 Africa,6391 Africano,8766 Niger for pertaining to Black/African American.
asteroids 10730 White,4478 Blanco for pertaining to White/European American
asteroid 3933 Portugal for the Portuguese
asteroid 1132 Hollandia for the Dutch
asteroid 3811 Karma for Karma

This is the astrological representation of the moment when the first shipment of African slaves were offloaded at Jamestown, Virginia. The chart itself is based on the research of well known Mundane Astrologer Marc Penfield, seen in the book "Astrology Looks at History", edited by Noel Tyl, 1995, in the chapter called, "Lincoln, The South & Slavery".

Mu'Min Bey calls it the chart representing Black America. When he does charts pertaining to Black America,he checks out synastry,transits to the Black America chart.
That's what he did with Barack Obama in his blog entry above.

I couldn't help comparing my chart to the Black America chart because of my Black ancestry from my father's side. I am part Portuguese from my maternal grandfather whose father changed the surname from Andrade to Andrews. I feel that the reason that I was born from an interracial relationship between a white woman and black man was to easily learn the lessons of racial tolerance,interracial harmony as well as my belief in unity and universal love which I feel is reflected by my Moon in Pisces which I feel that I inherited from my father and my maternal grandfather. Of course, I defy the "pick one box" rule,and so I refuse to embrace the one drop Black rule which NAACP is all for.

Interesting note: Sabian Symbol for 12 Gemini is A BLACK SLAVE-GIRL DEMANDS HER RIGHTS OF HER MISTRESS
Keywords: Rising above conditioning and limitations. Standing up for one's self. Demanding better treatment. Seeking Recognition and self-respect. Being in chart one's life. Breaking away from oppression. Wanting a raise in pay or conditions. The need for freedom. Desiring property and rewards. Rising up from an "underdog position" position or situation. The quest for identity.
The Caution: Feeling hard done by. Being demanding. Blaming others. Bucking authority. Demanding to be recognized or noticed. Feeling used and abused. Oppression and slavery. Jealousy and envy. Exploitation.
It seems to me that Sabian Symbol Degree could pertain to civil/equal rights matters, advocacy(standing up for one's self and others),Affirmative Action,Reparations,Race Relations
