Nomad: Lies. Indians are called asians as well and east asians don't have monopoly on that word.

I live in Scandinavia, in Sweden. The term "black" has never been offensive in this country. You are such a liar. I don't know about the other scandinavian countries, but it's not the case in Sweden. Stop talking about stuff you don't now!

Arab has been called "asians", indians and east asians as well.

No, I am black and somali. And you are as well. You have to deal with the reality my friend. I know it will take some time to digest it, but I will give you time.

Kaafiye: Can you adopt me? :lol:

You pass off Quora as a credible source? LOL! You are extremly delusional.

"Eugénia Maria Guedes Pinto Antunes da Cunha of the Department of Anthropology, University of Coimbra, Portugal, said there has been a modern trend in "most of the forensic anthropology literature" to "rename" the term "Mongoloid", a term in which she includes the "North American Indian", with the term "Asian" or "Asiatic".[33] Antunes da Cunha said that, even though the "terminology" has changed, the "underlying assumptions are the same".[33]"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asian_people

Indians have always been considered to be asians, not only in American but all over the world.


The term "svarting" may be offensive, but not the term "svart person". Jag är svensk din idiot. Det har aldrig varit kränkande att kalla någon mörkhyad person för svart! Neger och svarting, ja, men aldrig "svart"!


You are right, arabs are usually called middle easternes. I will give you that.

You are black, Nomad. Deal with it. Accept yourself.

First of all did i ever say they were not asian? All i said is that east asian chinese koreans japanese etc have a monopoly on that word in the public hemosphire when somoene says asian they usually speak of east asians.

Which is why the source is credible! So you are the one thats delusional!



I
ndians have always been considered to be asians, not only in American but all over the world.
Indians in the public hemosphire are not referred to as asians although they are technically , when someone says asian in america the usually mean east asian hence why they have a monopoly on that word.

regardless of whats written on paper the public dont view indians as asians but more than they do for east asians



The term "svarting" may be offensive, but not the term "svart person". Jag är svensk din idiot. Det har aldrig varit kränkande att kalla någon mörkhyad person för svart! Neger och svarting, ja, men aldrig "svart"!
Svarting betyr svart! svart person e de samme !its racist so no? We reffered to people by theyre ethnicity and nationality! Just cuz you dont wish it doesnt make it untrue!
You are right, arabs are usually called middle easternes. I will give you that.

You are black, Nomad. Deal with it. Accept yourself
LOL! You are one ignorant delusional person you didnt even Know arabs were called middeleasterners! So Kaafiye arguments stands fail for you!
you have no answer me if your ancestor named you black? Tell what does black mean? since im denying myself according to you

You desperatley try to pass off ur opinions as facts yet you fail! Black is what the adoons in america call themselves not us!

Nomad:

No, Indians are always and have always been included in the term "asian". I have provided enough credible sources for you and you can look it up.



No, qoura is not a credible source my dear where people share their own opinions. If you want to play that game then I can come up with a lot of incredible sources for you:

http://www.indiansareasian.com/
http://www.quora.com/Are-Indians-Asians

Do you want more?

Nej, svarting och svart må betyda samma sak, men den ena är mer förolämpande än den andra. Svart är inte ett kränkande ord och har aldrig varit det.

One of Swedens most credible news site:

"Skriv inte ”lapp”, skriv i stället ”same”. Skriv inte ”neger”, skriv i stället ”svart.” Säg inte” zigenare”, säg ”rom”"

This is from the commite of Swedish academic dictonary. You will never come with a better credible source. :clap:

My ancestors doesn't need to point out to me the obvious, that we are black. At that time people never thought about those things. All they were thinking about was their own survival. Do you need to follow everything you ancestors did back then? If you did, why are you muslim because our ancestors were never muslims all the way back.

Typical defense mechanism, call the other person a "troll" when you don't have anything to say.

How exactly is that obvious to you? Are you referring to skin tone? If so, you should know that a slight majority of Somalis, Ethiopians and Eritreans actually carry the same main gene for lighter pigmentation as found in all West Eurasian populations, not the ancestral pigmentation allele that is carried by most Sub-Saharan Africans, Aboriginal Australians, etc.:

Image

Ironically, modern studies on ancient peoples have now established that many old populations outside of Africa were dark-skinned, including in parts of Europe. This is because all human populations were originally swarthy, carrying the ancestral pigmentation variant. The lighter skin pigmentation allele evolved only a few thousand years ago.

So even if most Somalis didn't carry that allele, it wouldn't have changed their actual ancestry one bit:
“The result of HLA class I and class II antigen frequencies show that the Somali population appear more similar to Arab or Caucasoid than to African populations. The results are consistent with hypothesis, supported by cultural and historical evidence, of common origin of the Somali population. This study will serve as a reference for further anthropological studies, as well as studies of associations between HLA and disease.”
Further proof of this is that only around 30% of Afars carry the lighter pigmentation allele. Yet despite this, they too, like Somalis and other Afro-Asiatic-speaking Horn groups, are still essentially of Puntite descent.

By the way, if you want to know what the Puntites themselves actually looked like, see the murals on the Hatshepsut temple; they were virtually identical to the ancient Egyptians.

Puntite King Perahu, Queen Ati and a Puntite royal official:

Other Puntite royal attendants:

Image

Or see the Keftiu wall paintings from the tomb of Rekhmire, who was the Vizier to Pharaoh Thutmosis III. The Puntites are the reddish folks at the top, near the Nilotes; the other reddish individuals are Cretans, Kushites and Ancient Egyptians:

Image

Or see the actual Puntite statuettes that were recently excavated in northern Somalia:

Sweetheart, ancestral Somalis (the Puntites) practiced a religion closely related to that adhered to by other Afro-Asiatic populations in the Middle East, just like modern Muslim Somalis do now. Even the old Somali term for God, Ebbe, is the same in Aramaic: :lol:
"While the Cananite god ‘Pal’ was still present in Somalia in the same sense in one or two words, the ancient Aramaic name for the almighty, EBBE, was to this day the most commonly used names for God besides the Islamic ‘Allah’[...] Pagan Arabia’s most important god, HUBAL, was none other than the Somali HUBAL, co-opted and given an Arabised sound."

Let him, and I'll be sure to return the favor. 8-)

True Hamitic Somalis won't be misrepresented just because you personally may have some Bantu/Nilote jareer folks in your family tree.
