Only a deluded person would think such people were black and not truly blonde hair blue eyed white skin secret dark whites

15) Arab king Saladin portrayed as a black man


Recall this is shortly after viking rule in England came to a close. The vikings called black people blue people or blamenn and often tended to portray blacks as blue. This gives some insight on how they viewed saladin and arabs as a whole. Nevermind virtually all the moors are portrayed as black but even the arabs are portrayed as such in north europe. Whether its accurate or not is another question, the painter may not have even saw Saladin, but it was obvious people associated arabs and muslims on a whole with black people in europe.

The capture of Acre, 1191. Crusaders, led by French King Philippe II August, capture the city of Acre (Akko,Israel). Saracens hold up their hands and plead for mercy. From "Chroniques de France ou de Saint Denis". ID: Roy 16 G VI, fol.352 verso.

Note the black or blue black color of the king you can see through the cross holes in his helmet that his skin is not white but him and his knights are clearly black skinned men/women or people.
