If you are African yourself, African American or of African descent, or if you have friends, family members, neighbors coworkers or acquaintances who are African, then it will be normal to see African characters in a dream.
However, if the fact that there is an African in your dream stands out to you and seems like an important part of your dream -perhaps because there are not many Africans where you live in waking life – you should consider what Africans mean to you.
If you think of Africans as people who have been discriminated against, you may feel that you are suffering from discrimination of being treated unfairly.
Any other feelings that you have about Africans will affect the meaning of your dream.
If you are not African in waking life, but you dream that you are African, you could feel that people do not see who you really are.
