Black Africa is our people and land.

[Voltage]

We're African, no shit.

If folks don't won't to marry Bantu, West African, Indho-yar etc it ain't prejudice it's just preference. Qof kasta is entitled to dookhiis.

We are not just African, we are Black African. Also ruling out a whole race is racist. If you saw an individual on the street and said "damn, butt ugly" that's not racist. But what if 5 seconds later a beautiful specimen of that race walks by and you are instantly attracted? Let us just be real. We are following a euro-centric view about basically everything racial, so the reality is we Somalis who like to believe of ourselves as some of the most independent people are just not so independent.

We're all from presentday Saudi Arabia mate.

Nebi Adan and Hawo met each other at Carafa mountain for the first time.

and according to the Abrahamic faiths the earth is only a few thousand years old, do you honestly believe that?

first modern humans lived in ethiopia about 100,000 to 50,000 years ago, that's just fact.

Technically your not a "believer".

Xamud,

There's no ladder bro. If there's a ladder, best believe my ass is floating above the ladder. Fact is there's no ladder, there's a spectrum. Reread my theory man.

dawwa,

Of course I don't believe earth is a few thousand years old. But from my knowledge, the Quran doesn't claim it to be. Or is it?

and @ Abrahamic faiths...wtf dude. Gaal maad noogu noqotey? What's next you're gonna call yourself a Mohammedan?

[Digdahab]

actually I'm curious what about Islam....

what does it say ...

What the hell is black anyway? Vague term which doesn’t mean anything.

Is it people with over ‘x’ amount of melanin content in their epidermis?
Does it describe a group of people closely genetically related?

I have nothing in common with West-Central Africans besides having a lot of melanin ( ) and don’t see why I should be lumped together with them.

Black is something that is universally recognized as one of three major races. You are either Black, White, or Mongolian. I don't any Arab in Dubai's streets thinks of you as not black.

Technically your not a "believer".

Islam is silent on this. However Christianity and Judaism clearly state that it was only a few thousand years old, which is clearly bullshit.

voltage and his obsession with blacks...is this his attempt to come to terms with his gedo heritage?

Your but a psychologically enslaved, black african.

Whats funny about this thread is that its so 17 year old docilish, looks and beauty.

Who cares what people look like, oh yeah thats the urge of attraction which is a primal instinct which ties into mating.

Black is something that is universally recognized as one of three major races.

You are either Black, White, or Mongolian.

Backward way of thinking

That leaves true Arabs, Horn Africans, Southern Indians, Australian Aborigines-Austronesians and native Americans unclassified.

You can't place them within these groups.

The scientific world has long ago abandoned this way of classifying people.

[Digdahab]

^Actually when you think about it voltage is right..

Arabs are definately a sub race within the white race, same with dravidians .

madagassians, aborigines, austronesians, are mostly sub races within the mongoloid race, same with native americans, inuits etc.

[oldenglish]

I am white

No, Nuruddin Farah isn't the brightest living Somali today. Nuruddin portrayed Somalis as people who practice bestiality. People who read his works have formed that notion about Somalis. All his works are in English, so he caters to non-Somali audience/readers. He's internationally known, but only few Somalis respect him. His own father doesn't (didn't) respect him. So, Nuruddin Farah is the worst example to cite.
