Exactly they are not originally from Africa. The areas of North Africa they now inhabit were previously under the dominion of the Berber tribes.

North African here(Moroccan), I'm Uregu, black African. Most Arabs from the motherland will consider themselves North African to distinguish themselves as more sophisticated from other Africans, but when you get to western world there quick to play that card....

why Arabs born in Southwest Asia don't consider themselves Asians? could it be they're an intensely tribal people that care more about their last name than what continent they were born on? :ohhh:

they still are. the majority of Algerians, Moroccans or Libyans are Berbers that speak Arabic.

Dont you guys get tired of this nonsense?

Africa has been the victim of colonialistion of the land and the people, if you think these people are native to Africa you are deluded by Eurocentricism

Here's an article with researchable references

African Moors: The Appearance of the Original Berbers According to European Perceptions – By – Dana Marniche – Rasta Livewire

To my knowledge the Berbers were desert people who the tuareg/ siwa as such belong to.

With loss of land comes loss of history and identity my brother.

Much like us victims of the Diaspora, our African brothers are alose victims of the same fate.

It's mostly middle/upper class Arabs in the northern parts that don't see themselves as Africans.

Hell, there are even several Ethiopians/Eritreans who disassociate themselves from the rest of Africa.

Arats hate blacks more than whites.

Any black man who is a Muslim has some serious identity issues.

neither Berbers or Arabs are "African" in the same sense Sub-Saharans are.

Berbers (although indigenous to Northern Africa) are still the result of back migrations from Eurasia

Arabs obviously are newly arrived peoples from West Asia

so IMO they are both foreigners

I'm not taking anything from a rasta website seriously unless it's related to marijuana. No offense.
