[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Cass/: [qb] My argument is based on the standard used by physical anthropologists: black is 29-36. Like you said, give or take a couple of units because these are fuzzy. But we have afronuts on this forum like Doug who think light brown hues as low as 17 are black and they only say this so they can lump much lighter skinned north African populations in with themselves as part of their pan-African politics. No physical anthropologist however does this. [/qb][/QUOTE]In what strange world are Northeast Africans not black? Are North Sudanese, Somalis, Eritreans and Ethiopians not black? These are the people that eventually created ancient Egypt... it was a Sudanese transplant. [/qb][/QUOTE]Several people in this forum, Djehuti, Doug, Tukular prefer the definition of black as not having to do with ancestry or features but instead a particular range of darker skin tones. Therefore if one establishes that range's boundary we can look at various North Sudanese, Somalis, Eritreans and Ethiopians and on a case by case basis of individual people determine if they are black or not by comparing them to a color chart [/qb][/QUOTE]That's bonkers. That sort of arrangement would be a bloody mess. You would be left with a situation in which people from the same ethnic group would be placed into different racial boxes in opposition to genetics, linguistics, culture and common sense. [/QUOTE]Some might describe the range of being black as starting earlier than 27 But there are several people in thins forum who say that "Black" has nothing to do with ethnic groups. Therefore if people of the same ethnic would include black and non black people it wouldn't matter. They would say that the problem is viewing black skin as an ethnicity rather than a pure measurable, darkness level of skin So therefore politically, continental or tribal affiliation should be separate from this visual observation [/QB][/QUOTE]
