Your confusing 'black' admixture with 'african' admixture

I'm not.

North africans are genetically different than sub Saharan Africans.

Yes and arabs in NA and ME have significant ssa admixture through interbreeding.

So if there is arab and black genetic mixing it's probably minimal because these two groups don't like each other very much.

You're right that they dislike each other but the admixture is there.

Ok but your original comment seemed to be implying that arabs are just 'black people' which isn't really true and I don't think the admixture is as much as you think it is. Although maybe someone else in the sub that know the genetics can inform us both.

Yeah that was wrong. I think its around 10-20% admixture, at least in some arab populations like the berbers

South Moroccans have 33% sub-Saharan admixture on average.
