[QUOTE]Originally posted by zarahan- aka Enrique Cardova: [QB] Don't forget that WITHIN Egypt itself there are a wide variety of skin shades. dark skin is part of native Egypt, it is not "foreign." The racial or ethnic term "black" can encompass a wide variety of skin shades, from light brown to very dark. So the term "black" has wide variation. If white scholars can continue to use the term "Caucasoid" to represent people of every conceivable skin color, likewise black folks are perfectly entitled to use the word "black" to represent the peoples of Africa, above and below the Sahara. Too often, white hypocrisy only want a one-way definition. [IMG]http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/481/blackdefinition.jpg[/IMG] ======================================== Originally posted by lioness: [b]A possible definition of a Black person is a from brown skinned to nearly black brown skinned person who has primary ancestors that lived in Africa recently -no more than a few thousand years ago. The idea is that hair and facial features do not define what Black people are, only skin color and recent African ancestry. [/b] What lioness conveniently and obtusely misses is a key scientific definition- namely tropical adaptations, such as elongated distal segments. No manner of semantic games can duck this reality. ---------------------------------------------------------------- [IMG]http://img560.imageshack.us/img560/931/raxterrufftrinkhauscomb.jpg[/IMG] ---------------------------------------------------------------- And you notice she doesn't apply the same definition parameters to white people. How would you define white people? If skin color and recent geographic ancestry are the main parameters, as you claim, are white also people defined by white skin color and recent European ancestry? Why or why not? And why are blacks only "brown" to "nearly dark brown?" That does not even fit standard dictionary definitions. How come they aren't light brown and jet black as well? Watch her duck and dodge now.. as she tries to wriggle away from her hypocritical double standard... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- [IMG]http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/481/blackdefinition.jpg[/IMG] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- And she is always talking 'bout "mixed" races although curiously, the hypocrites usually shy away from the data by some conservative white scholars showing Europeans to be a "mixed" hybrid breed, whether in general: ---------------------------------------------------------------- [IMG]http://img530.imageshack.us/img530/9130/europeansvsethiopians.jpg[/IMG] ---------------------------------------------------------------- or in specific cases like Greeks.. ---------------------------------------------------------------- [IMG]http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/3923/hlafreq2.jpg[/IMG] ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- [IMG]http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/181/greeknegroidaffinities.jpg[/IMG] ---------------------------------------------------------------- Some note that many white scholars duck away from defining a "white" - as they so cavalierly do with "blacks" - i.e. the true negro stereotype. Now why is that? Why do said hypocrites duck and dodge when the data is applied the other way? [/QB][/QUOTE]
