[QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Cass/: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: Southern Europeans are not light-brown and an olive hue is not a metonym for light-brown. Southern Europeans are just tanned. The San are truly light-brown.[/QUOTE]Southern Europeans are naturally darker than Northern Europeans; the difference isn't just a tan/sub-burn. Skin reflectance values (685 nm) taken from the unexposed [inner] arm show SE's tend to have lower skin reflectance values than NE's by >5%; below are some values I found while just searching: Dutch: 68.9 Northern English (Northumberland): 68.6 Belgians: 67.3 Germans: 66.9 Northern Spanish (Leon): 62.7 The difference would be up to 10% between the north/south extremes of Europe, e.g. Southern Spanish or Aegean Greeks vs. Swedes or Danes. Southern Europeans without a tan, aren't 'white', but a faint light brown colour. Do you see why its so ridiculous to say the whole of Africa including Egyptians were 'black', when 'white' is restricted to a much smaller geographical area? Why should 'black' be so broad? The answer is you people are politicalizing it to fit a pan-African ideology. [/qb][/QUOTE]Whether you like it or not the ancient Egyptians stem from a common origin with other black populations in Egypt and Northern Sudan. Southern Europeans are white, acknowledge that they're white, are considered such by every white person I have ever met. Neo-Nazis may have a difference of opinion but I scarcely care. You are being political, mate. Lower "Nubians"-Upper Egyptians have a common origin, adapted to the same ecological environment over thousands of years, were virtually identical, practiced the same culture and were responsible for creating dynastic Egypt... but only one sibling is black? :rolleyes: This has everything to do with your self-admitted hatred of black people, so your desperate lip-service to objectivity is laughable and is dismissed.
