Algeria’s Black Fear: How Arabs see Africans coming to the land the Arabs invaded and have occupied

[Crude Abolitionist]

SINCE 639 AD

Until recently, the Sahara desert has never been a destination for black African migrants, but as trans-Saharan travel from Niger to Algeria has increased due to closures of other migration routes to Europe, Algerian desert towns and cities have become the new landing spots for many black migrants. The “influx” of black migrants into the Sahara has sparked racial tensions between them and Arab North Africans, with numerous attacks by Arabs against black migrants occurring throughout Algeria. Anti-migration efforts have focused on the Sahara desert, the new path to Europe, deporting thousands of black African migrants from Algeria and “repatriating” or dumping them in Niger each year. Since Niger allowed Algerian authorities to cross into its territory to repatriate migrants in 2015, many black migrants have reported racist treatment from Algerian security forces during deportation, including theft and violence. In addition to direct police action against black migrants, Algerian officials have deployed xenophobic attacks against migrants in the press to drum up anti-migrant sentiment.

Displaying a cruel irony, the president of the Algerian National Commission of the Promotion of Human Rights, Farouk Ksentini, justified a sudden mass expulsion of black African migrants from Algiers in December 2016 by saying to a national newspaper “the presence of African migrants and refugees in several localities of the country could cause problems for the Algerians, notably the spread of AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases… Hence, the decision of the Algerian authorities to expel them in order to avoid a catastrophe.” In another xenophobic statement from a leader of a humanitarian organization, Saïda Benhabylès, the president of the Algerian Red Cross, said to an Algerian daily last year, “The presence of the African migrants and refugees in several places of the country could cause problems for the Algerians, notably the proliferation of AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases… From where, the decision of the Algerian authorities to expel them in order to avoid a catastrophe.” The leaders of groups that purport to protect human rights and provide humanitarian aid to all peoples blatantly treat black migrants as if they are unworthy of defense for their own human rights. Occupying the savage slot, the black migrant cannot embody human rights or receive humanitarian aid, as these “defenders” of human rights and “humanitarians” treat black migrants as if they are not human.

This pathologization of black Africans as disease carriers who threaten the livelihoods of Algerians is based on racial prejudices, and is part and parcel of the larger structure of anti-black racism in the Sahara. Such disease discourse naturalizes the idea that blacks are associated with disease, rendering the decision to allow blacks into Algeria matter of life and death. This xenophobic rhetoric has been adopted by Algerians online, with some saying that migrants “must be exterminated like rats” and “they are violating and spreading AIDS in our cities,” using the social media hashtag #NoToAfricansInAlgeria.

The hate they have for us is so real. They are afraid right now because its obvious what is going to happen in the future. Blacks will once again reign supreme in Africa. It's inevitable. I always get caught up on what I can do here in America to speed that process up. I can't stand how we are treated in our own lands. shyt makes me fukking sick.

1. Berbers are native to the land.

2. Berbers are not Arab.

3. Berbers trickling into the sub saharan side would trigger the same xenophobic response. Even south africans and other africans are having problem in south africa. No one wants an influx of immigrants ever.

4. This is tribal not racial. Just like east bloc europeans from Poland were looked down upon by British when their was an influx, same for Irish.

West Africans are not Xenophobic, at least not to the level of South Africans or Algerians

Worked with one of those Arab chicks. I thought she was cool. She was always talking about "the white man". Then one day I decided to test her. Asked what box she checked on the race question.



Bih said "white" and felt embarrassed. That day I learned everything I needed to know about their "my friend" asses.

Arab is a cultural identifier for much of MENA and there are Arabized Berbers.
