It is one example of many that shows that Africans have been better treated in France then the US. If you read about Dumas then you would learn about his mentor:

It was in 1793 Dumas made General in Chief, it took until 1975 for an African American to reach the equivalent rank in the U.S.
Toussaint Louverture was the second African-Frenchman to be a four star equivalent for France in 1797.
You are very wrong about France's integration. U.S. isn't the leader in this, yes better then Australia but that is because we are borderline apartheid until the sixties.
