How come Somalians don't think they're black?

I think they're Negroid but Ethiopians at least seem to have distinct amounts of Caucasoid admix from the Arabian peninsula. NE African populations do seem to be genetically distinct from other sub-Saharans when I think about it.

Because we African Americans are the only black people who allowed Europeans to name us "black".

Only here is "black" a nationality.

I had these brothers twisted at first too denying being black. I understand what they are saying now though.

Somalis don't mean "Black" as in skin colour, but the socially constructed term that Europeans had invented. So in reality Somalis don't ascribe themselves to a cac invention. And Somalis hate on other Somalis as well (clan politics) complicated people tbh

Total nonsense. Those terms are nothing but scientific racism used to separate Africans based on phenotype and claim African civilizations for cacs. Notice how they only use Caucasian for east and north Africa but not for the fulani people in west Africa who look like east Africans. It's nothing more than a lie used to steal African history. Also Ethiopians are not mixed for the most part.

Truth. All we have to do is check DNA. We have that and have confirmed who's black and who's not.

Africa is the most racially diverse place on earth.

What breh said is true, Whites have socially constructed the term "black" and nikkas readily embrace it. Do Filipinos look like chinese people? Do Vietnamese people look like Korean people? Naw but they're still Asian. Same applies here.

People from the horn of Africa are Caucasian according to Anthropology. They do not share the same traits as most sub Saharan Africans. They aren't "white" but they are Caucasian. Which makes Africa so diverse.
