Cope and seethe, habibi.

We are sand people.

Don't know about you but I am a mountain man, in haplogroup and even in clan name.

You tryna say you're a Berber?

 

[hinters]

That's not the case, buddy. Public institutions like the Arab American Institute rightfully classify Somalis as an Arab ethnic group.

Yeah but who cares about them, I've never heard of an Arab American Institute nor have most Somalis in America. The government does not classify us as Arabs or Middle Eastern. Somalis are black in the census.

 

[Keo]

doubt we are no more than 60k these census like to misinform and create exaggeration. If we were so many you would have found a somali community in florida, nyc, san Antonio etc you telling me all 200k somalis are in minnesota, ohio and Washington and the rest spread out? I smell bullshit

It’s 100% believable. Somalis usually go where there’s a Somali community present. Why do you guys always like to downplay our numbers?

I’m pretty sure 80-100k Somalis are in Minnesota alone

Scipio is kinda right. Somalis are sometimes considered Arab and Black on censuses always flip-flopping

I haven't heard of this before, are there some self hating Somalis who put themselves as arab on the census?

 

[Emir of Zayla]

I haven't heard of this before, are there some self hating Somalis who put themselves as black on forms?

Idk but when they tally up the numbers sometimes Somalis are considered Arab/Black or in the “Other” category, it depends on the surveyors I guess.

Its from the US Census. Of course it's accurate. The numbers from NGOs, the UN and African governments on Somali populations in Africa is definitely fake news though.

[johnsepei5]

last time i checked Us stats which was last year, the Ethiopian American population was 440k
how did it get so low?

 

[Basra]

Nigerian 604k
Ethiopian 325k
Somali 221k
Ghanaian 172k

did these numbers Surprise you ?

Census 2023 OCT

Something is wrong. Ghana cannot be close to use. Also Ethiopians can't out populate us in the west. And the Nigerian one was over exaggeration.

 

[JustSomeGuy]

They should’ve made African regions into separate categories like North, Horn, West etc instead of “sub subsaharan”

The North Africans are classified as ''White'' by the US Government, they're not included in sub-saharan Africa, partly explains why they have a superiority complex despite the majority of their diaspora being criminals in Europe lmao
