Some Arabs have this two-sided combination of superiority and inferiority complex which i have personally seen for myself on different occasions. There are times where some Arabs would feel good about themselves and superior when they are surrounded by south asains, africans etc. Some examples I saw were in Mosques, where I have seen Arabs yelling at Indians over taking chairs to sit on. On the other hand, unsurprisingly I have seen Arabs being very welcoming to white people, inviting them to Islamic sessions, hoping to change their so-called 'negative' opinions and media portrayals of them, being very patient while they are being degraded, and complaining about the racism, when they are doing the exact same thing. It's ironic really! Religion aside, there are also Arabs who try hard to portray themselves as 'normal', 'likeable', and display this sort of "Hey, I'm just like you" mentality to gain social acceptance from 'white' people. There were even lawsuits filed by lebanese/Syrian Arabs around 1952, where they literally fought to be racially classified as 'white' when they wanted to enter the United States and become citizens. Little do some of them know that if it wasn't for African-American Civil rights leaders fighting for all kinds of people to achieve equality in the past, they wouldn't have been able to immigrate to America!

Growing up, my parents had this strange attitude, without realising it: we had black friends from Portugal and Cape Verde who were respected by my parents, at the same time when they saw other black people they'd call them ' shiddi' in a bad tone and say bad things about them. They also favoured people with a lighter skin and didn't realize that many of these ideas came from colonialism in desi culture. Our family members and desi social circles in the UK and France had similar attitudes. At the same time, all of them were angry when white people were discriminating them. I see this hypocrisy everywhere in people from different backgrounds and ethnicities. It's an important conversation to have. It's a pity the Arab video is off line, because we have to discuss these topics if we want a change. We have to look at ourselves first and start there to make a change, and then also bring other people into this discussion. Otherwise, nothing will change. I think the Arab video was handled with care and was well explained. Oh well.

The most important lesson I have learned is to go where you are liked and treated well. I do not spend inordinate amounts of time with historically racist communities, nor attend their majority schools, no join their majority programs, except for a short time or a specific purpose, and then move on. The opinion of Arabs, Desis, matters little to me because I know mine own and those of my community matters little to them. Black people, in my opinion, need to stop wanting to be in those, spaces, life is too short to spend all that time trying to be accepted by people whose behaviors indicate they still need to work on.

Although I am now a Reform Jew, I went on hajj 20 years ago. My experience was the same as Malcolm X: Muslims come in all races, nationalities, languages and colors. In contrast to some Christian denominations which historically had racially segregated congregations, go into any mosque - whether in Saudi or America - and one will find congregants of all colors. There are Muslims who practice racial discrimination, but there are far more Christians who do.

And one of His signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the diversity of your languages and colours. Surely in this are signs for those of sound knowledge... Qur'an 30:22

As someone who grew up in Pakistan. The degradation of anyone who is black (Racially and subsequently, by comparison of local skin tone) is so deeply ingrained because of colonization. I moved to the U.S after marriage about 15 years ago and that prejudice I can still see in soo many desis. They have open suspicion against Non-Muslim Black people (buying into the media stereotypes of them being criminals) and will generally have an air of apathy towards Black Muslims. It's absolutely deplorable and I hate that we are this way! Thank you for highlighting this problem. And I wish I had not missed the Arab discussion because ... yeah, I've felt it first hand...

This is not just due to colonialism, white skin was preferred even before. Most of the predominantly higher castes are white and reverse true for vice versa. So even when people converted to muslim or christianity, that bias stayed. There was also a lot of intermixing of Arabic, Iranian, and Turkic genes into the Muslim genetic pool, which are all predominantly of white complexion. As they became rulers in the land, naturally people who looked like them where considered favorable. The idea that white skin is more beautiful precedes the era of colonialization, colonialization just reinforced it yet again.

Super wierd to come across the advertisement 'I found the Truth', regarding Christianity. Anyways, thank you for making a video on this topic.

Very good.

I don't mean to be disrespectful, I like your content and I hope you continue to speak out on issues such as this. However, I can't suger coat anything when it comes to religion. I'm an ex Muslim, I am also a woman. So I have own reservations about about Islam and what Muhammed has said about women and their place in Islam. But the reason why Muslims are particularly awful to women and black people is in the Quran and Hadith itself. I implore anyone who is Muslim to really look at what is in your books, the more I read, the more I realised that Islam is not for me.

There is an Egyptian mosque, there is Lebanese/Pali mosque, the Indo-Pakistani mosque

There is three circumstances that you can be blatant bigot or a racist and the excuse for it is if you claim that it's your tradition your custom or your religion

Hey Tazzy F, it's good work youre doing here. Still many jackasses in the comments who still dont think it is wrong to be disrespectful to darker skinned people but at least you are starting these conversations and everyone has to start somewhere.

Thanks for speaking out on this but you guys have to understand that we can't be thought of like this and then also expected to care about what's going on in your countries...I put my cape down.

I’ve watched your videos for so long. Like og early 2010s? Idk what ever age I was in middle school (I’m 20 now!). I’ve been avoiding this video, I’m not sure why, I’m a black Muslim myself and maybe it’s because I was scared to hear your takes and having someone I enjoyed growing up watching be spoiled. But thank you, this was great and I appreciate you! Mashallah.

I have found the Arabs in Oman to be the most down-to-earth and culturally kind to all ethnic groups. I’m not sure why this is. Decent people.

Muslims are people too, people are flawed. Unfortunately people tend to act and think in the ways that they have been exposed to previously. People are flawed so they can strive to get better. Islam shows us the right way to think and behave. You would think we had enough time to get over these human tendencies as an ummah. But I guess the struggle is individual so we are still here. I love learning about cultures, but these parts just make me sad and angry.

Do you think that it’s possible Islam and it’s prophet are flawed as well?

While I agree that that racism is a huge problem in this ummah as a black person myself I can’t help but find myself thinking about this. One of the main reasons a lot of black people say Arabs/desis are racist is because they won’t marry them. I feel like any normal and self-respecting person wouldn’t cry and beg for a group of people outside their race to choose them as a partner and would just marry their own. However you tell a black person this and they’ll cry and say it’s their right to marry outside their race as well and bring up that ayat that Allah created us in different tribes. Why is it that this topic is never an issue amongst non black Muslims? They all prefer their own, want to be around their own, and would very much rather marry their own. It’s only black Muslims that feel everyone should marry them. Is it internalized racism amongst other black Muslims themselves and now they’re projecting or what? I don’t care to be accepted or even want to be in non-black spaces. I don’t care who likes me or who doesn’t. It’s not hard to stick with your own. It’s only hard if you’re suffering from self-hatred and want to mix your blood out of existence. The self-hatred and prejudice in terms of skin tone, facial features to hair texture is so prevalent in many black communities. I’ve seen so many black Muslim men fawn over Arab/White or least black looking African women and choose them over west African or darker skinned sisters. If we can’t even respect and love ourselves how can we expect for others to respect and love us?
