I'm not necessarily posing this question to just just these 2 forum members (Keita Kenyatta and Jamesfrmphilly), it's just that I read a melanin post yesterday and these two people resonated with me.
What I'm asking is fairly simple, am I a Moor by "name" / nationality / because of pigment or are none of these valid? I plan to dig deeper into this, as this is basically one or two days of new information I've just come in contact with.
Any info pro or con to what a Moor is, whether I actually am a Moor (especially since in my family tree I have purely Caucasian ancestors from Ireland roughly 5 to 7 generations back on one side), would be greatly appreciated as I travel down some of these paths to gather some clarity on what exactly it is that I am.
Thanks,
Larry
