They are African by location but they are not *******(thats a race accoring the US cenus).
Go to any source be it wikipedia, or a library and read what they say specifically on the Habesha of Eritrea and Ethiopia and you will see why people say they are not 'black'.
from Sabaens - ancient semetic arabs and Aksumites - ancient semitic people from the kingdom of Aksum.
People are arguing not so much on their skin colour but their facial features, skulls and hair styles. Last time I checked the majority if not all africans from west, south and central have coarse/kinky hair.
The Eritreans and Ethiopian have big, loose curly hair or the women have silky hair.
They are blatantly not white - lol ,but they are not *******.
Why would alot of white people I've met and on yahoo answers think they are not black in how they look.
Simply because they don't.Why would a white person care enough to label Eritreans and Ethiopians as other? What's so special about them? They were just honest in
After reading this,what race do you think ethiopians are?since theirs so much talk on their race.? there africans
After reading this,what race do you think ethiopians are?since theirs so much talk on their race.? after that i'd say they are others.
After reading this,what race do you think ethiopians are?since theirs so much talk on their race.? Ohhh now i get it well that enlightened me and now i know why people say they arent black its makes sense noww.mrb that joke if dead that was a 17yr ago joke .
african isnt a race for the other guy egyptians are also african
After reading this,what race do you think ethiopians are?since theirs so much talk on their race.? That depends on what one would define as "black". Just because a person does not have tightly kinked hair, that does not make them "unblack".
This whole race thing is quite confusing when you think about it.
After reading this,what race do you think ethiopians are?since theirs so much talk on their race.? I say their race should be "skinny, go eat something"...
Just joking...haha...there is an Ethiopian guy in one of my classes and he doesn't look African...he's lighter and even his hair isn't black, it's more of a lighter shade of brown. But, as for what race he is...I'd say, Ethiopian.
Why do so many people even worry so much about race though? Why do people classify people on the color of their skin? This is the root of prejudiced. He's Human...Can that not be his race?
After reading this,what race do you think ethiopians are?since theirs so much talk on their race.? You're like some kind of wacky anthropologist huh? They're Black with some mixture. A lot of Black folks have a lil sumthin' extra in them. Just like a lot of caucasians have some Soul in them.
After reading this,what race do you think ethiopians are?since theirs so much talk on their race.? Who really cares?
After reading this,what race do you think ethiopians are?since theirs so much talk on their race.? You are crazy. What the hell is Black? What the hell is White? Some contrived terms to desribe people. The lines aren't drawn as rigid.
I'm Italian....if I am not white...then what am I?
Honestly, I could care less about it. Race is just an ideology. Not an exact, precise science. Surely you learned that doing your little research for this question. I can't stand people like you.
EDIT: You say the majority of blacks from the south, west, etc...where do you get this information from? Have you ever been to places like the Bahamas? Barbados? Jamaica? Guyana? Can you even find them on a map? There is so much variation in their skin tones and hair texture. Just because they aren't dark and have "silky" hair doesn't make them less black.
After reading this,what race do you think ethiopians are?since theirs so much talk on their race.? Yea you got that information off of wikipedia. Are you aware you can type any crap you want on there? I should know I've done it before. Instead of using online sources why don't you ask an ACTUAL ethiopian? All the ones I know of say they are black. Ask REAL people not some internet site.
After reading this,what race do you think ethiopians are?since theirs so much talk on their race.? Ok, I'm getting tired of answering these questions about whether or not I'm black.
I could care less what colour you call me. Black, beige, brown, gray or PURPLE !
But I would take GREAT offence if you didn't not call me an ETHIOPIAN.
I live amongst you. I'm part of your world. I'm your brother. But my mother is ETHIOPIA.
Call yourselves whatever you want! I do not care. But do not try to label me. I'm a human being.
What you think of me is of no importance to me. What I think of MYSELF is more important to me.
If you want to take the time to know me I will be your friend. But try to push your thoughts on me I will fight you like no other!
HATE me, from afar ...but if you'd just get close enough ...you'd LOVE me.
My outer look is mere covering ... peel it off and you'll find a jewel.
ONE LOVE!!!
Cheers !!!

After reading this,what race do you think ethiopians are?since theirs so much talk on their race.? Girl they are black but Black people can come in diffrent hair textures, skin tones and etc. Ethiopian people are black ok. If ethiopians was not black then why the hell they have dark brown skin?
After reading this,what race do you think ethiopians are?since theirs so much talk on their race.? i know where you got this frommm =|
