[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sundjata: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Sundjata: So what? I cited the primary source; you didn't. What is your point? [/qb][/QUOTE]In the narrative the Moors are said to be straight haired and black, yet at the same time the author distinguishes them from Negroids. This shows that the word "black" is used in a differnt way then what the average American (an example) would intend it to mean. [/QUOTE]No where in the narrative does Adams use the word "Negroid". Also, any criteria Adams (himself a "Mulatto") uses to distinguish "Black-skinned" moor from "Negro" is immaterial to the fact that they are described as "Black". His early 19th century race conceptions (or Cock's) were not considered when I initially posted that quote. I was providing raw descriptive material for individual analyses, period. [/QB][/QUOTE]
