ARE SOMALIS BLACK!??

[herndonhomer]

Are we black? I have no clue, most people tell me that I am not black that I am Somali. And some people come up to me and say "Why do somalis look different then other Africans?". I have no idea what to tell people so I just consider my self other.

A few days ago I said ''Sup my nigga'' to an Ivorian Coaster friend of mine or however you call a person from that country..Its in West-Africa?

And he Said ''dude you aren't even black don't call me that''

I was like ''Dude, Somalia is in Africa''

Then he started with shit like Somalis are not blacks, they came with boats to Somalia ETC

[herndonhomer]

I don't consider my self arab, thats the last thing that I am. But not all somalis are extremely dark skinned.............im not.

...Because Somalia wasn't in the slave trade. Alxamdulilah.

I get the same thing

Hausa friend of mine says "You guys came from Arabia, you are not even African. We should draw a line and say Africa is only Western Africa and Southern Africa"

[michael_ital]

Are you asking "black" as in skin colour, or "Black", as in Race. I.E Negroid ?

That's why Somalis are closer to the Arabs. I was refering to the other slave trade.
