In this technology enriched society we find ourselves in, there will always be perplexities. Therefore, any answer may or may not meet your expectations. But you see, Ilaam would have people who are light complected. They have blacks; but they do not overly recruit them.

why wouldn't they be classified as Caucasian? yes Egypt is in north Africa but I believe most of the people living there come from the middle eastern desert nomads just like Jews and Arabs they are indeed white. so they don't get to claim special minority status
