Sudan and the color confusion!

Post by Navy9 »

Sudan means the land of the Black, since the country has different racial groups, those so called of Arab ancestry used to use the term white while non-Arabs (indigenous people) used black to refer to their skin color. Few days ago, a reporter talking about the Sudanese elections said the terms white and black has been replaced by red for those who have a lighter skin color and blue for those of dark complexion.

I wonder if red/blue is any better than white/black, same shit different terms. :down:

my al ja3ali friend, which they consider themselves to be arab, always argues with qataris that he is black and ma yasharefah to be an arab.

if you go to their forun, which i visit more often all their topics involved about race,
sudan is arab nation? is sudan arab country or african etc.
you feel like you're in somalinet but more civilized.

i cannot wait untill 17th, even though i know al basheer will win betazweer :down:
