Reece, “Color Crit: Critical Race Theory and the History and Future of Colorism in the United States,” Journal of Black Studies 50, no. 1 (2019): 3–25, at 21. 365 • Rachel Schine Al-ʿUṣūr al-Wusṭā 30 (2022) like a flat “cow-like” nose (furṭūsuhu ka-furṭūs al-ʿijl).206 When Fāṭima’s father first sees the child, he remarks not that he is dark, but that he is “of the Black kind” (aswad al-jins), whom another tribesman remarks are “not lineally exchangeable with” and “completely unlike” white people (nasl al-bīḍ mā yabdulu bi-sūd, wa-laysa al-bīḍ ḥaqqan mithla sūd).207 This split perception overlaps strongly with the divide between the heroes and villains and their supporters and detractors in the text, such that the pious Arab-Muslim figures with whom ʿAbd al-Wahhāb is most aligned acknowledge his group membership and likeness to them while their Christianized detractors do not, focusing instead on his stereotyped blackness. Scrutiny of animal pedigrees, using the tools of ʿilm al-ansāb, could explain everything from the makeup of one’s own camel herd to the exotic appearances of rare creatures at the world’s far edges—erudite trivia that is adab’s bread and butter.	cache/alusur-8698.pdf	txt/alusur-8698.txt
