I doubt it. I've seen a generally high degree of solidarity within the minority community in France, assuming she is part of the working class minority community in France and not the daughter of some potentate. He's Martiniquan and presumably Christian. The highest degree of alienation and hostility I've seen appears (and I could certainly be wrong here) to be targeted at Muslim residents.

Intersting that blacks and arabs are sticking together. Unlike here in which every minority except blacks have a crab in a barrel mentality. Alot of blacks want this rainbow coalition and thats not going to happen.
Anyways, i do remember during the Paris riots that there were black and arab kids hanging out together, so im glad they are so they could achieve their common goal.

I know it's a movie, but it's pretty faithful to the climate in the French ghettoes (banlieues) where African, Tamazight/Berber, Arabs and other immigrant groups live alongside each other, in a generalized state of poverty that they all share as non-French minorities.

She is African but not blk.

Africa does not mean blk.
There are white, blk, arab, chinese-Africans.

Charlize Theron is an African.

True, but I think people are using it as shorthand for being of the race that originates in that continent. Tough to keep all the terminology in order.

Yes hanging out together with Arab people in a riot is very positive development for black people.
The result was increased votes for extreme right wing candidates and destruction of their neighbourhoods.

NO it is YOU who need some glasses and a history lesson. For one thing ARAB IS NOT A RACE. ANYONE can be "Arab", it is like Latino it is someone who identifies as such on linquistic and cultural grounds. There are jet-black ARABS, and there are blond-haired blue eyed Arabs.

This woman in the pics clearly has black ancestry, and if she was born here than she would be classified as a Black American. HOWEVER, ALL Arab (and Berbers) are classified as "Caucasoid" in this country, she would be "white" if she immigrated here.

There was a Black Egyptian who FOUGHT AGAINST being called white by the gov't. He is jet-black and look like any other African-American, but he was considered 'white'.

Blonde haired and blue eyed people in North Africa are Berbers/Kabiles, not Arab. Just to confuse everyone even more.
