Are Kurds White?

I learned that the Yezidis are not white, what about the Kurds?

What some people call white means something different to other people. They are white as far as being Caucasian, but they are not "white" in terms of being the same subrace as Germanic or other western European people. Also, besides the broad differences that Mediterranean Caucasians have, there are also cases of admixture with black Africans who came from the south or Asians from the east.

Although groups like Kurds, Yezidis, or whatever have more closely maintained a homogenous people, we are at a point in time where everyone is under attack. One's cultural or ethnic label alone holds less relation to genes than before, so you really have to scrutinize on an individual basis.

It is a humor. Some of them are white but most of them are brown skinned. When we are encounting with a white kurdish person we make this joke.

Where are you from? Most of them are brown skinned in Turkey. But I don' know other countries.

No in Turkey they have mostly green eyes, dark brown hair and white skin.

Aynen öyle ama mavi değil yeşil göz yoğunlukta. Türkiye'deki Kürtlerin siyah saç ve göze sahip olması diğer ırklarla karışmalarından dolayı diye görüyorum. Bizzat melez kürt olarak söylüyorum Türk genlerim olmasa %99 yeşil gözlü ve kumral olurdum.

They are not.

So what race are they from? black or asian?


They are a people of white origin, they are different from the western mediterraneans, the problem is that in some regions such as Iraq and Syria many of them where mixed with Arabs.
