Categories: Middle East & North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa, Angola, Egypt, Ethnicity & Race, History, Politics

Many in North Africa would bristle at being called African, much less black. And certainly–the treatment of migrant laborers in North Africa and Southwest Asia (from all parts of Asia and Africa) is just as dire as in Europe and North America.”
