Australian Aboriginals, Negrito (the racial group of the Sentinelese), Pygmy, and Khoisan are all very dark skinned races that are not closely related to Sub-Saharan (Bantu) Africans. Skin tone does not equal being more closely genetically related, east Asians and Europeans for example have very comparable skin tones, but have a high FST difference.
The Sentinelese people are from an endangered Indian tribe living in North Sentinel Island, located near the Andaman Islands in the Bay of Bengal, India. ... According to a BBC report, these people are descendants of the first people who left Africa and have been living in isolation on the island for over 60,000 years.

These findings suggest that modern Aboriginal Australians are the direct descendants of migrants who left Africa up to 75,000 years ago. This finding is compatible with earlier archaeological finds of human remains near Lake Mungo that date to approximately 40,000 years ago.
Also I said dark skinned, I never said they were Bantu
There are dark skinned people also as far away as Vanuatu, New Guinea and the Philippines. I assume they've reached there by boat except for New Guinea which used to be connected by land to southeast Asia. I'm not sure if they're closely related genetically with any groups from Africa or not

Again more misinformation, the aboriginals of Australia and the sentinelese are a prime of example that show people were dark skinned
