The Voice newspaper that caters for Black people residing in the U.K has published an article that the English legendary hero "Robin Hood" was in fact Black. It is alleged that Robin Hood was of African descent from when the Romans introduced African slaves into England. The slaves only mixed with each other and did not engage in mixed race relationships with White people. The name Robin Hood is derived from the term "Robbing Hood", which is a reference to a person who robs while wearing a hood. Early on in his career Robin attempted to become aristocratic and enter nobility, but the attempted failed when one day Robin carried out a smash and grab on a pensioner walking through Sherwood forest, this resulted in the Normans putting a bounty on Robin Hood. For the remainder of his existence Robin and his associates lived a life of crime robbing people and living off the proceeds of crime. Some of Robin`s associates who were White used to put coal dust on their faces in order to look like Robin. The group called themselves "merry men" due to the fact that they were permanently intoxicated via strong alcohol, and spent most of their time sheep and deer rustling in order to feed themselves. The groups diet primarily consisted of venison and mutton, and alcohol. Numerous versions of Robin`s death are recorded, one version stated that Robin died after being the victim of a vampire attack, others claim that he was run over in a hit and run involving a horse and carriage, Others claim that a ram charged at him and headbutted him while he was tying his shoes up, but The Voice newspaper has formed the opinion that Robin overdosed on crack cocaine that he had bought off some sailors in Whitby one day.
