The Moors

Is it we wuzzing for black Americans to claim moorish heritage since it was west African?

Load of bullshit.

The moors were not sub-saharan. They were north african with a very small black minority. Is the USA a black nation?

Yes, considering the founding fathers have more black descendants than white ones, and the average black American is more deeply rooted in America than the average white American(Ellis Island). Not all blacks are sub-Saharan which itself is a flawed and racialized concept (see the Sahel).

Bump

The moors were maghrebis. Nobody outside am*ricans believe that they were subsaharan blacks.

I still don't know why america produces such amount of weird baseless ideas and always related to race.

Sahel is below the Sahara, and therefore sub-saharan.

They were from the Sahel, and were black

They were predominantly Maghrebis who are like olive-skinned; they didn't look too different from Meds. Although there was definitely a minority of them who were black; you see a black persons in the art now and again and considering the geography, that's to be expected.

>The moors were maghrebis. Nobody outside am*ricans believe that they were subsaharan blacks.

...and Medieval Europe.
>See Moors in Spain and North Africa which- in European parlance- refers to the multiethnic bunch of cunts North African Muslim rulers ruled.
>HOLY SHIT LOOK AT THAT BLACK GUY!!
>Proceed to depict Moors as black in art.

Maghreb's look black.

Why can't muricans we wuz about Mali or Ghana or Songhai or whatever.
Those faggots actually are the geographic origin of the slave trade, and have pretty interesting cultures(with actual kangs, as well)
Nah, they are just tanned as fuck.

>I still don't know why america produces such amount of weird baseless ideas and always related to race.
they were founded with those ideas. The most american thing isn't to be a slut, degenerate or incredibly nationalistic. Its to be confounded and obsessed with "race"

Moors include all of those, the entirety of West Africa.

? Nope, it was only north Africa than was considered the Mauretanias, lately was when Moor was everyone than was muslim to the Spaniards, even they sahel slaves.

So there was black people from North Africa?

As slaves? Yeah, the Moroccans specially loved they black pussy, any midly sucesful trader would have a black girl for fucking and cooking so his wife would be less stressed and more focused in the children.

So the moorish empire must have extended to where predominant black west African areas were aka the places where black Americans have partial heritage

If by "black" you mean their skin color then sure. They were Afro-Asiatics, not negros, tho.

People with congoid facial features are sexually compatible with people who have Ethiopic facial features, so most Africans fall all on a spectrum. You have some lightskinned Africans with congoid facial features and you have some dark skinned Africans with Ethiopic facial features.

Alot of stupid people from middle class suburbs go to shitty universities and learn nonsense. It's kind of like a retarded pseudo-aristocracy. When you have no connection to anything before the 1800's, a hack will just make up nonsense off the top of their head.

Here's a period depiction of Moors.

Moor Moors

And finally, the fabled black Melanoid people of Moorish Spain and north Africa.

All two of them.

Not always, but often. Just like axis anti-american propaganda often represented american soldiers as black.

revisionist race-baiting needs to be a banable offense.

Except you don't have to conquer a place to have slaves from there? Did the USA and the Confederates own west africa too?

Also there was not "the" moorish empire, although some empires were moorish.

oh look its niggers

It should also be said that most moors in Spain were actually just spaniard converts, not very different genetically from the inhabitants of visigothic and roman Hispania. They were still called moors by their christian neighbours.

Yes Moors aren't even black

This meme must end

Yeah and no, the zone than was conquered be the Berbers was far away from where the majority of blacks were captured and then send to the Americas. Probably some were captured there but they would have been a very tiny minorit.
There wasn't a moorish empire either, but different berber "kingdoms" or faith movements like the Almhoads and Almoravits. And blacks were normally slaves and formed an underclass in they lands, the Hratina, than were basically serfs with even less right. Some movements, like the Almhoades, used them, some times chaining them together so they couldn't run away. In the battles of las Navas they were used as such to protect the tent of the Emir. The Arabs specially didn't like the Blacks or Zanj a lot, they make /pol/tards seem friendly.

Moors are a mixture of Berbers and Arabs. A simple google search would show you they aren't black. Today the ethnic group is referred to as MENA (Middle East North African).
