Were there really black soldiers in the Wehrmacht or is it just a meme?
Most of them were in the Free Arabian Legion, which despite it's name did not mean only Arabs

WE WUZ NAZIS N SHIIIEEEET
There were small numbers. Nowhere near the levels either side wants to claim.
Ethnic people who held anti-British sentiment were used as soldiers when they realized they were running low on manpower.

Quite a few anywherei n the african theatre they opened up native battalions.
Why wouldnt they, the nazis didnt hate everyone, they just wanted everyone out of their countries by any means necessary, fine difference, not too much tho.

People from all over the world glady joined Hitler in his efforts to free the world from jewish suppression
IIRC, the Waffen SS was responsible for handling soldiers from outside of Germany, meaning most blacks would have been in the Waffen SS as in "divisions of the SS" rather than "SS Divisions" at were given less training and worse equipment. The distinction was important to Himmler, and it doesn make sense in a way since cultural barriers probably made it difficult to train them to the same standard as european SS soldiers, but then again their standards were all over the place too, so whatever.

My great grandfather was in the free Arabian legion fighting the British as part of the ss division. Pretty cool story really.

Germany was majority-black back then, so both the Wehrmacht and SS were mostly blacks.
wh*tes genocided the actual germans after 1945
Aydolf O'hilla, erroneously referred to in wh*te history books as "Adolf Hitler", was a black man.
People wanted the French and British empires out.and were willing to make deals with the devil to do it. It shouldn't be surprising; the same thing happened on the Eastern Front with anti-Russian partisans in much greater numbers.
