These are from the Levant.They are also known as Adnani or arabized Arabs.When I say Arabs, I mean it for peninsular Arabia (Khaleeji/Yemeni Arab), some of which also live in the Levant, Syria and North Africa and Egypt.The other use of the word Arab is to describe anybody that speaks Arabic or whoever is from an Arab Country .By the medieval Arabic view, any Chinese or Native American would have been called "white" because if you where not very very black, you where white.Today it is however different.The cause was the colonial period as well as the expulsion from Spain on racial and sectarian grounds.The only country that lists Arabs as "white" but excludes Pakistani's from being white is the USA.While the common white Americans do not accept Arabs as white at all.Arabized Canaanites, Christian Arabs, Assyrians and Arab Armenians and Cherkess people from Lebanon and Syria have fought for "whiteness" in order to naturalize in the US.Some Arabs feel this labeling of Arabs as white in the US only is being done to pave the way for "greater Israel" and claiming the achievements of ancient civilizations as that of white people.Hence these Labels and categories are looked upon with suspicion.Arabs back in their native lands feel good as a brown people, not to white, not to black, just brown. Arabs are aware of fine differences between people from the Subcontinent and themselves.These are not so much by colour of skin, but by shape of eye sockets, eyes, and nose as well as cultural differences. Arabs tend to have small button eyes and small fingernails, in contrast to Indians who often have very big eyeballs and often triangular noses.Skin colour is mostly the same or similar.Some Indians, such as Pathans, Kashmiris or Brahmins look more white then Arabs.Same with ethnic Persian Iranians and Kurds.( 310: 289: 2566:
expected due to exposure to the sun, as the article states, show a skin pigmentation in unexposed areas similar or even lighter than that of Northern Europeans (see page 18). Spaniards have an observed reflectance of around 65. For a comparison, Namibians have around 22-25, North Africans (Tunisians) around 56 (Morrocans) around 54, in Japan 55. What about Europe?. In London it is 62, darker than in Spain, although in other areas of the UK it is slightly lighter at 66.In Ireland 64-65. In Belgium 63, again darker than in Spain. So much for so much ignorance about the subject, that seems very common in this Anglosphere full of people who think that Spaniards or other Southern Europeans are like Mexicans. Funny they do not think that Jamaicans are not like the British. PS. It should be mentioned, though, that pale skin is considered unattrative in Spain and that most people will almost kill to get some colour or a good tan, in the beaches or in even using sunbeds. In fact most people do not consider pale skin attractive. On the other hand brown skin is considred much more attractive nowadays, a fact that people here seem to ignore, although when white people get brown we call it getting a tan. The information is there, in any case. Jan.

times.They need to be included in "brown people" and there needs to be a sub category for African brown people (Ethiopian Semites and Cushites, The Beja people, Somalis, Tuareg, Fulani) even though they would probably labeled black in the US due to their silly one drop rule.Not all "Sub Saharan peoples" are black. I know that some Lebanese Christians are opposed to that, but why bother? You aren't even Arabs and most of you do not self identify as Arabs but as Phoenicians or Canaanites.You just sdopted Arabic language.However, Canaanites got the near white looks, because they are a mixed race people themselves (mixed with Greeks, Armenians, Georgians & other peoples from the Caucasus region, Crusaders, Anatolians, Turks.....etc). Please don't mistake the "Arab concept of white" with actual "white". According to Arab concept of white, if you are not blueish black - you are white - In Sudan they say - if your dental gums are pink - you are white.....so this is meaningless.Most probably, ancient Chinese and Japanese did consider themselves as white.Until they where told they were members of the Mongolian race (Mongolians = their trad. enemies).

the fact that Spaniards, Italians or Greeks may actually be brown and not white, thus being a non white race. This is especially the case in the US, where people call anyone who speaks Spanish, Spanish. Well, Spaniards and Southern Europeans in general, and there are always exceptions like in all places, have virtually of the same skin pigmentation as other Northern Europeans. Of course if one visits Spain in the winter and sees with an objective eye they will see this fact at once. In the summer people like to tan. It is the official sport. Still the former can be seen as well. On the other hand the sun shines strongly and tanning is common for anyone who is outdoors, and southern Europeans love being outdoor, again, when it comes to natural skin pigmentation without the effects of tanning, they are as light skinned as anyother Europeans. See the only objective and scientific study carried out in the 21st century about skin pigmentation. Here you can find information about the Spanish, as Southern Europeans, and many other nations.
3590:. This led to one of the most notable hate crimes against Sicilian Americans, which was the trial of nineteen Sicilian immigrants for the murder of New Orleans police chief David Hennessy in 1890, which trial ended in the lynching of eleven of them by a white vigilante group. A quote on the condition of Sicilian's in the south from Prof Joseph Conte's 'A man named Cody - and the "passing" of a Sicilian in New Orleans states "Francesca and Antonio DeCorti soon left New Orleans to work in Louisianaā€™s sugar cane fields, where Sicilian immigrants commonly replaced black slave labor. As freed slaves and their descendants left the cane plantations for more promising work in cities such as St. Louis or Chicago in the late nineteenth century, the exhausting manual labor of cutting cane fell to the newest arrivals from southern Europe. Sicilians were not only replacement labor for the departing Negroes, they were treated to the same brand of justice as the freed slaves. In Louisiana in 1905" <ref: --> 1767:
as 'brown', much less any population group" (or indeed, "the designation of 'brown people' does not necessarily correspond to actual brownness of their actual skin" (i.e. people with a predominant skin colour which in most other contexts would be described as "brown" are not necessarily so designated, and equally, vice versa)), is there no clearer way of putting this that reflects whatever-it-is the source saying? The undoubted fact that there is always going to be more in the source than in the summary thereof does not mean that such summaries should be mystifying easter eggs, which it's not possible to query without being told to go "read the source".
3591: 2004:, since the term's ontological status (is anyone "objectively" a "white person"; why does this fact change when I move them from Brazil to the United States to Finland?) is in serious question. But by Knowledge's naming convention the more common, but formally applicable (and not insulting) naming should go with the concept. Here, each of the separate meanings, and I don't think you can disagree that they're separate since the article says as much, have their own perfectly valid names (though I also think we need to be quite upfront about the fact that "Australoid race" and "Malayan race" are concepts, not material realities).-- 1689:
or olive-skinned "whites" and self-identified "black "people) than people who can be observed as literally white or literally black for instance), so it needs much more explanation than the unclarifying wikilink and figleaf reference note currently offered (Race is one of the most written about topics in sociology, social/cultural anthropology, cultural studies, sociobiology,political science etc etc, we shouldn't just use one source for such a sweeping statement) The term may be overworked or disputed in many cases, but this is not necessarily mean it totally lacks any direct correspondence with actual skin color whatsoever.
1709:." (Forbes' emphasis). The second and third are from page 99: "The practical problem is that we cannot know what a Spaniard of 1560 meant by 'stewed quince' color or what an Italian of 1530 meant by 'olive-ish' color. Nor can we know if there was any agreement among people about such terms or, more importantly, about the colors in the mind conjured up by such terms." A lot of arguments on this talk page, including the above (which, ironically, talks about "sun-tanned" and "olive-skinned"), are based upon not actually reading what the source materials actually have to say, and what scholars have written, on this subject.

white or black skin makes you black. What?! If anyone with brown skin is brown, then according to logical reasoning, Chinese, Koreans, Mongolians, and Japanese are white because they have white skin. Also, brown skin is common in South Europe (Italy, Greece, Portugal, Spain, Albania, Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia, Cyprus, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Macedonia, etc.). Are you going to start calling these people brown? There are Anglo Saxons living in the America-South (e.g Alabama) for centuries that have developed brown skin due to the heat of the sun rays there. Are they brown, too? No.
1366:"In the middle of the nineteenth century, the racialist theories of Arthur de Gobineau and others spread through Europe. The presence of blacks and "lower quality" immigrant groups made racialist thinkers discount the potential of the United States. The infinite mixing of America would lead to the ultimate degeneracy. Gobineau said that America was creating "greatest mediocrity in all fields: mediocrity of physical strength, mediocrity of beauty, mediocrity of intellectual capacities - we could almost say nothingness." 2933:"Generally, among different times (mostly in both Empire of and First Republic of Brazil), people with evident non-European ancestry (i.e. non-Caucasian features perceptible in a multiracial phenotype) were regarded as brancos ("whites") when social status of such person improves, and people from "fully non-white" categories were regarded as pardos ("browns"), trying to minimize their visible non-European ancestry to make them sound more "civilizated" and noble human beings and citizens" 2462:
in a number of ways. There is no reason in line with the policies of wikipedia that this article should be deleted. The anthropological usages alone justify that the term was used in early attempts to classify world populations based on physical characteristics and the fact that the term continues to be used, even adopted by some cultures in a way to redefine it as something of pride in some cases gives it standing in its own right as a independent article.
1285:
teacher and I am the student. This might fit your aggressive pursuit of this article as uncriticisable but its not how we do things here. As long as this article remians rascist OR I will continue to criticise it. If you banned criticism of articles on their talk pages we would have no possibility of imporoving articles bvut fortunately only Jimbo Wales could do this (and trhen everyone would leave and there would be no more wikipedia)
2870: 1947:. According to the simplistic way in which you've chosen to view this article, each of those could easily fall under the same umbrella. Instead, I ask you to review the Historical concepts section that you've minimalized. This term was part of a five-color system of physical anthropology created during the Age of Enlightenment. There is far more to this article than is covered in those other articles and you are not applying 1633:(edit conflict with LSLM) The problem is the article exists even though the concept is a minority rascist one. How we deal with this huge problem is indeed a tricky one. I think the way Ju and Uncle G remove any statements, sourced or otherwise that they disagree with while insisting that there own unsourced statements stand is very sad. Trying to give respectability to a minority rascist concept will not serve wikipedia, 399: 2646: 378: 1670:
of examples of people whose brownness happens to have caught the attention of someone else is not making for an NPOV article, however allegedly well referenced (it takes more than referencing to make a good encyclopedic article and a bad article can be well referenced). If you refuse to discuss with other editors and instead insult them (straw men) then we have reached an impasse so I woulsd advise you to change tack,
258: 859:. On the one hand you have 2000 mostly English pages talking about people with the name "Bryn", on the other hand mostly Afrikaans pages, of which several use "bruin" for denoting a person's skin color or race. Add "swart" (black) and "wit" to your query and it becomes more obvious. The Afrikaans Knowledge even has no pages containing "bryn", but several with "bruin": 1744:. This guy would also qualify as "brown" in the sense of "mixed race". Now that source is actually plausible if viewed in the context of Wittgenstein's philosophy, who wanted to challenge the ingrained perception of language, but taken out of context it's wrong. Many people have a skin color that falls into the spectrum of brown, including blacks and some whites.-- 229: 201: 3506: 2981:. I have never ever heard the expression "brown people" before. There is no other article for "brown people" in any other languages in Knowledge except for Swedish, which proves that the subject of the article is globally unheard-of and nonexistent. This article is racist, US-biased, and has no scientific foundation. I call for deletion. 2801:
southern Asia". Not only was southern Europe never included under the term, even the southern Mediterranean was mostly included under "Caucasian". Since at no point does the article include "Spaniards, Italians or Greeks" under "brown", it is difficult to see why you are trying to establish they shouldn't be. Perhaps you are confusing
469: 3412:
absolutely no connection we have with Latin America, and if we allow racist Americans to dictate whose brown, then others will too want to be considered brown for their brown skin and it wont stop, and saying "I am brown" will mean nothing knowing that there's no real regional connection or ancestry, only similar skin complexion.
898:, and the further reading that it cites, will tell you the dangers of using Google as a test of correct spelling. If you doubt the existence and reliablility of the sources cited, which are books, then you are free to click on the linked ISBNs and confirm their existence for yourself with a large number of book sources. 2410:
happier then if there were also articles for red and yellow people, these are certainly equal concepts to that of brown people, by singling out brown people I am concerned that wikipedia is actually distorting reality (even though unintentionally) and giving validity to brown people as a racial concept,
3351:
Just because many Latin Americans have brown skin does not mean they are brown. That is so silly...and pathetic. You guys needs to read up on geography and anthropology to be less ignorant on this. Racism is derived from ignorance. Saying brown skin makes you brown is like saying white skin makes you
3347:
Now, let me get some points across. We're willing to consider the Middle East as brown, because there are a lot of geographical and cultural connections; they are adjacent to South Asia and Islam has a significant influence to South/Southeast Asian culture. Latin America, on the other hand, does not.
2838:
Well, you have it right under historical concepts. If those historical concepts are mentioned (all of them influenced by Nordicist propaganda) why not state that some of those groups are proven to be even lighter than many Britons and English by modern science? Some of these articles rely too much on
2778:
So, this is reality when confronted to science, nothing more, nothing less. (You can also find in the thread the typical comments by idiots who seem shocked before facts) People should start getting an education on this issues. As you can see as well, skin pigmentation in areas of the Middle East and

What you often refer to your own family as is not the point of the article. The point of the article is to give the historic and current usages of the term. It does so in a neutral and verifiable way. To not have this article would be to deny that this notable term existed, exists, and was/is used
2213:
I don't think that "the historical concept is strongly related to the modern concept still in use by the IBGE and others" for two reasons: the anthropological "races" were regionally defined and based on ancestry, and the Brazilian definition is based on skin phenotype and need not even be inherited.
1669:
I have a firm commitment to NPOV, that's why I tagged the article. Turning even minor sociological subject matter into an article on people who are brown and then filling it with ridiculous, highly lunatic fringe ideas such as that there are no brown people, and then to contradict that with all sorts
1658:
rather than from a neutral point of view for the benefit of this article. Both of you continue to point out your blatant lack of disregard for neutrality ("...minority racist concept...", "...(editors) want to impose...twisted and strange ideas on race...") on these topics rather than comprehend the
1579:
This is also not true. Do a Google search for "Brown people" and you'll find hundreds of references just the same as the usage of "white people" or "black people", nevermind the fact that this all stems formally from the 5-color classification system by one of the original physical anthropologists.
1568:
The term brown doesnt really exist in the way it does with white and black people, which is why this article should be deleted or if not redirected to people, and why this article doesnt do anything other than to stir up conflict. The idea that we are giving an encyclopedic definition of brown people
1511:
I deleted it because it is unsourced PoV and not applicable to an article on "Brown people". Furthermore, similar comments on using the color "brown" is already available in the article just prior to where you were adding it. Except those comments are sourced and don't try to attribute the original
812:
The source, which is a study of such words, spells the words as they are written, and contains no occurrences at all (in 500 pages) of the words that you give. Please cite an equally good source for the spelling that you are claiming. Similarly, the sentence fragment quoted is based upon Adhikari's

referred to in this article. The phrase "who were largely, and erroneously, believed to have been the production of black-white sexual union out of wedlock" -- what exactly does it suggest? Also, in Afrikaans, one uses the diphtong "ui" instead of "y" in the words "bruin", "bruines" and "bruinmense".
722:
You may not think that it is an academic subject. There are currently 15 cited sources that disagree with you. I have made no claim about the existence of brown people, incidentally. As I wrote below, please stop constructing straw men. As for what many black people think they are: You have cited
3411:
The brown race exists and it is included in the region I stated (MESA region). Primarily in South/Southeast Asia, and although many will disagree that Middle East is brown, if they want to be brown there's many of us are willing to accept them since there's similar culture, but that's it. There's is
3372:
So now you are probably wondering, if Latin America is not brown, what would you refer them as. I have done a lot of research myself, and very few Latin Americans actually call themselves brown, it's really just racist Americans trying to lump them in this category. According to 2010 U.S Census, 53%
3368:
Nothing against Latin America, but they have nothing to do with MESA culture, they are tens of thousands of miles away from us, so we literally have no connection to them. If you are going to call Latin America, and everyone else you don't like in America, brown, then that nullifies the racial value
2629:
I agree with you on Middle Easterners, but at least Arabs do consider themselves as brown, especially when living amongst Westerners but also back home,and are considered brown by most people in the World, incl. America (regardless of the US Census).Turks from Turkey do call people of African decent
2371:
if you ask these guys but not those guys and if you ask X people, it depends on if they came from Y heritage or Z heritage...". This article is not in need of a disambig nor is it unencyclopedic. The concept is a part of a historical system of classification of physical anthropology that maintains
1756:
There are not people who are literally white. The term white has been ingrained in some people's minds to see "white" people that they distort facts in an incredible way. White is a white piece of paper, or a white shirt. In fact it could be said that most people are some shade of brown. Some users

which is offered up as explanation doesn't help - it specifically says that human skin tone ranges "from dark brown to nearly colorless".) Such a statement seems to defy everyday observation (there are many more people who can be observed as literally brown in skin colour tone - including sun-tanned
1601:
That is false, PoV, and not applicable. Plenty of civilizations have ways of describing themselves from other civilizations based on physical traits like skin tone. Your comments are that you have an opinion on how white people treat others and you want that opinion known in an article on the term

classification" . This is unsourced and looks like OR to me as there is not the concept of brown people that there is of white and black people, in that sense brown people are like red people and yellow people, so you need a source for every claim within this sentence to put it back in its entirety,
606:
Your user page is irrelevant, as is who I have looked at. If you want this article to put forward the thesis that all people are brown, then you must provide a source for that thesis. The article currently has a source that states unequivocally that "brown people are not brown". Therefore that is
3369:
it has, and brown no longer becomes a race but an ambiguous group of people with a generally darker complexion (brown). Southeast Asians are well aware of Western countries. They dump their waste in our oceans and now won't even let us have our own racial group where we can be culturally connected.
1766:
This is indeed a weird and deeply unclear sentence, whether or not Colfax and Sternberg say this, and whether they do so in as many words, or otherwise. Given the large semantic difference between "no person is any shade of brown", and "it is simplistic and misleading to describe any single person

I do not need to say what a racist charlatan this Gobineau was or what stuff all these Nazi websites are made of, but following the arguments that I can see here, why should we speak of Americans as white people at all, if white people live mainly in Europe, with a population of 728 million people,
1182:
it surely implies it for three reasons: (1) It says that "Americans" refer to mestizos and Hispanics as brown people. (2) It doesn't acknowledge that this is wrong at more than one level. One editor claimed this was addressed in the introduction of the article, but this is not the case, as even if

Agree, this is an entirely unnecessary and contradictory fork that does no more than make wikipedia a laughing stock and unreliable source of info amongst those who arent racially obsessed, which Americans clearly are and seeme to want to impose their racial theories on the rest of the world. Shame

This is not an academic subject. What, you think we'll rely on your word for that? The article starteed as troll bait and what has changed? Are there any people who study brown people (who you on the one hand claim dont exisdt anyway)? Stop throwing WP articles at me which I am at least as familiar

True though, I mean that assertion is verifiable. The disambiguator as "Brown (racial classification)" blends part of the documented structural terminology of historically racist states and social systems with the reactionary appropriation to ethnic identity according to media reports within those

Thanks for replying. I didn't want to overburden you with work looking for sources, but I still have my doubts regarding the sources. The "Brown v. Board of Educuation" doesn't show that Sicilians were called "brown" (I hope you noticed that it is not named for "Brown America" but for a man called

The Brown vs. Board of Education article states how Sicilians were effected the same as other non White Americans, from the article it states "Blacks were not the only ones affected... Latinos in Denver, Hispanics in New York City, and Sicilians in New Jersey were also affected." This confirms the

Alright, enough of this bull. I feel like it's just racists changing this page saying everyone they don't like is brown. It's time for a real brown man to straighten some things out for you all. The brown race has always been considered South Asian and Southeast Asian. The fact that Southeast Asia

It would be helpful for you to state which "old comments" you are referring to. The (racist) Stoddard map clearly includes all of Europe in "white", not "brown". Coon himself is quoted as saying "the so-called Brown Race ... was for the most part an extension of the same Mediterranean family into

I read here some old comments among Spaniards, Mediterraneans, etc, lumping together Southern Europeans with other Mediterraneans, etc. It is all the same kind of stereotypes based on the deep ignorance of many people, if not wishful thinking by some who seem to find some kind of strange solace in

This is the biggest problem that I have come across in race related articles. You can have a look at the White people article itself. Right now it is not perfect but some time ago it looked like a Nazi manifesto. What I have found surprising is that most of these people come from the United States

This issue is very frustrating because it shows how Americans look down at us and still dictate the idea of 'race' and who's brown while the actual brown people have no say. How would you like it if Indonesians declared Kazakhs to be white and changed the 'white race' page on Knowledge to include

1590:
I insist. I do not agree with the article, but if we are to analyse the concept, white people, who like to invent all these terms to refer to other people, ignore the fact that they are also some shade of brown and that they are certainly not "white". So if the article stays, the statement should

I removed the section about Middle Easterners, as it didn't discuss Middle Easterners as "brown people", but whether they are "white" or not, which is irrelevant to this article. Furthermore, none of the sources seemd to refer to them as such, and Middle Easterners are hardly ever referred to by

I think they are fundamentally missing the point that the article is about (rightly outdated) 19th-century (and early 20th) concepts of race based on skin colour; the modern world's got little do with it.

If you don't want to call them white, that's your prerogative (you can just refer to them as Latino, not brown), but if they have a significant amount of European ancestry and share similar culture, they have every right to self identify as white. I would never tell someone with 50% or even 25%

If 'Blackies' aren't Brown, then I must be colourblind. My eyesight is perfect. I'm, supposed to be 'White', but I'm anything but. I agree entirely with Squeakbox. You'll be saying ginger haired people aren't ginger haired next, because it's 'politically incorrect'. White, Black, Brown, Yellow,
3416:
This diatribe makes no sense. The sentence you keep mangling is about 19th-century ideas. How we see matters today has nothing to do with it. Additionally, your insertion about "the official "brown race"" is uncited and nonsensical; there is obviously no such thing as an "official" brown race.
