I went to school with a Malagasy girl. She looked Filipino but often identified as Black because of her African pride. Black in the US seems to be a complex political construct rather than a racial category, because actual ebony skinned afro-descended people from other countries often don't identify as Black but as their ethnic group or tribe, especially those from spanish-speaking countries. (No race "owns" a color or can be reduced to a color. That is a European fantasy lol. The African race is made up of various phenotypes, as is the European one. Chinese people are also white skinned. Does this make them white? White is a color. Black is a color. To be more honest, most Africans are brown dark brown or medium brown). Racializing people by color is silly and anti-scientific. The title of this thread is wonderful because it doesn't fall into the color fallacy. It stays scientific: African and Asian, and then specifies what African and Asian categories wink

just throwing in my 2 cents smiley I had first hand interactions with Malagasy people and they're like any other. I saw the very filipino-looking ones. Mango-colored skin and straight black hair.

also, people don't just darken due to climate. If so, all South African European people would be deep brown by now and not suffering from the 2nd highest skin cancer rates in the world. Same goes for the Europeans of Australia. Shocking rates of skin cancer. That Iranian Indian story sounds suspect. The genes for darker skin would have to be present initially in the Iranian. It can't just develop. Light cannot create dark. A Tanzanian can give birth to an albino, but a European cannot give birth to a Tanzanian. Not to say euros and albinos are the same, but I'm focusing on color genes.
