[QUOTE]Originally posted by Antalas: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: And of course the argument you vehemently deny but is true is that North Africans were indeed black. As shown by the Egyptians in their [i]own[/i] portraiture not to mention melanin tests done on their mummies [b]as well as genetic tests.[/b] And so were the Natufians again [b]according to genetic tests.[/b] So you fail on all counts. And please don't give me any ridiculous argument on definitions of 'black' since you won't give one for 'white' but sure do post a lot examples of it from modern coastal Amazigh who don't reflect the populations we discuss! [/QB][/QUOTE]Hahahaha I thought there was no such thing as "black ancestry" ?? Now suddenly the "genetic tests" are confirming that "North Africans were indeed black" ? Thanks for contradicting yourself XD Did you forget your words ? : [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: I thought we already explained to your dumbass multiple times before that a category is only as valid as it is logical. [b]In this case "black" is simply a descriptor of color.[/b] There is nothing invalid about it. [b]However you are correct in that the category only describes skin color alone and not ancestry OR culture.[/b] The category itself though is no more "racist" or even "Eurocentric" than is the label "white". Hence why non-European Indians also use the label to describe very dark peoples especially in the south, or Southeast Asians use the term to describe aboriginal types. This is why when people identify themselves ethnically, they use actual ethnic names NOT skin color or race, except in the West where blacks are a minority to the predominant whites. Even then 'black' in and of itself is not an ethnic identity though Black American, Black Canadian, etc. is because of the particular cultural groups labeled by skin color.[/QUOTE]Again you said : [b]However you are correct in that the category only describes skin color alone and not ancestry OR culture.[/b] So how could genetic tests detect it ?
