I am dark skinned (proudly) and I was surprised to see Saudi Arabians darker than me when I was there. I knew they were descended from slaves. What I came to learn later was that they were treated like shyt a lot and when there is some sort of argument, traffic accident, whatever, the Arabs will call them the arabic word for slave. There are also black Emeratis (UAE, Oman, et) all of the middle east as well.

All those people aren’t descendants of slaves, that whole area used to be part of the Kemetic empire so of course you will see Black people there.

Came here to say exactly this. Many blacks have been there since ancient Kemetic times and also the Axumite Empire ruled over that region for hundreds of years, same with Oman and Yemen.

Plot twist the so called "middle east" is actually part of the continent of Africa....the Colonizers drew the map lines and separated the continent while building the Suez Canal....🤷🏾‍♂️

You can usually tell through the name. Saudis belong to a tribe. Al Qhatani or Al Otaibi, which they use as a surname. When you see a name that is similar to Ali Mohammed Abdullah usually descended from slaves.

It was nice to see this. Darker skinned people in many of these countries are hidden. We all know why.

I didn't know this information. Thanks for sharing. This kind of information is not taught in school.
