I always thought the Moors were somewhat mixed, darker skinned but not uniformly black. The Smurfs were blue, by the way.

Well, most of the people replying on this forum are in denial about the Moors being black.

Well, do you have an argument to support that the Moors were black. I haven't read any good one's yet.

In denial? Why do you want them to be black?
They certainly have subafricans, but they are as alien as subsaharans in Australia.
Blacks in marrocco are a minority, as in the Us...they are into music.
There are also mulattoes, descendant of slaves that arrived during the 16th century.

Just had to say this was a pretty funny and ridiculous thread.

I saw that Africans are not "black" and that black/brown skinned Africans are not "negroid."

Too many of you are way too obessessed with a "white/black" historical narrative.

The Moors IMO were black. I base this on the European (white) painters who depicted them in paintings/drawings in the 1100s and 1200s as black skinned persons.

The fact that you all are arguing about it, when Europeans portrayed them as black and described them as such from AD700 and forward is pretty hilarious.

The real question IMO is why won't you admit that they are black.

Negroid and African is not a factor in the discussion. Europeans described them and depicted them as black. I believe their first hand depictions and descriptions. What is such a travesty about believing the actual pictures and descriptions of people from the 8th century forward. It is very odd.

It sounds like you really really want them to have been black(negroid) for whatever reason.

Your arguments for the black Moors are the same old tired arguments which includes the "core belief" not based on any proof that the Moors were black and those that won't admit it are in denial because of bla bla bla!(they don't like black people). Sounds like you have swallowed the "white/black" narrative.
