    Default Algerians, another whitewashed ethnicity?

    According to Wikipedia, this is the Algeria national football team. The following players were selected for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations Tournament.

    Azzedine Doukha

    Aissa Mandi

    Mehdi Tahrat

    Djamel Benlamri

    Rafik Halliche

    Mohamed Fares

    Mehdi Zeffane

    Youcef Atal

    Ramy Bensebaini

    Adlene Guedioura

    Mehdi Abeid

    Ismael Bennacer

    Riyad Mahrez

    Sofiane Feghouli

    Yacine Brahimi

    Youcef Belaili

    Baghdad Bounedjah

    Islam Slimani



    Finally, there are 4 players who are not fully Algerians: Raïs M'Bolhi, Alexandre Oukidja (half French), Hicham Boudaoui and Andy Delort (half French).

    If we go by soccer teams then France is a negroid nation.

    I have yet to meet an Algerian who calls himself white.

    Anyways, these are Algerian crowds. They look like what they are, north African Arabs and Berbers.

    Excuses. All of those Algerian players are natives. The Off White Dilemma again.

    Algeria has good deal of diversity , there is difference between inner Algeria and coastal Algeria , players are representative of there particular ethnicity and region. Algeria is not like some other countries where you see twenty people and know how the whole population looks.

    People with more negroid mixture are more likely to be good in sports and play it so it is not best representative.

    But those players are not negroids, they are Algerians, my dear girl. If you are interested, there are 2 black missing players in the Algerian team.

    Rais M'Bolhi was born in Paris, France to a Congolese father and Algerian mother

    Hicham Boudaoui, born in Bechar, Southern Algeria

    I must not be paying special attention to their whitewashing. Are people really saying they look indistinguishable from the French or at the very least the Spanish and Italians? As petty and combative as Southern Euros can be, that barely holds water.

    I think you know how antroforums work, people tend to whitewash their own nationality and darkwash the others.This phenomenon is more recurrent among "borderline" ethnicities.
