The real Arabs are in Yemen/Saudi and perhaps the gulf (heavily mixed), every one else was Arabized at some point in history including North Africans, Palestinians, Labanese, Syrians. Now the Baggara Arabs (RSF) using racial slurs against black sudanese is hilarious, they look exactly alike. Saw an RSF mother taunting other Sudanese calling them black slaves![]()
Facts.Racial categories vary depending on the context. The way race is perceived in America is different in other parts of the world.
Have you heard about the controversy about the South African singer Tyla not considering herself black but colored? Or dark-skinned Dominicans not seeing themselves as black in the US? Or Africans sometimes seeing mixed and very light-skinned folks as white?
Same thing in Sudan. You can have darker skin and some stereotypical african features but still be racialized as arab rather than black in Sudan.
The original arabs were black Africans so yes, they were indigenous to Africa. You’re confusing asiatic Arabs with African Arabs.Arabs are not native to Africa.
These "Arabs" once again are indigenous Africans with partial Arab ancestry (from invasion and colonization). Majority are part Nubian and/or Nilotes that have been arabized over centuries.
