Black Race: Are Fijian People Really Black. Unveiling the Truth

Fijian people are primarily of two main ethnic groups: Indigenous Fijians (iTaukei) and Indo-Fijians.

Indigenous Fijians (iTaukei):

Indigenous Fijians are of Melanesian and Polynesian descent. They have a diverse range of physical appearances, but they typically have dark skin, curly hair, and distinct facial features. The term "black" in a broad sense could be applied to describe their skin color, though it's more accurate to refer to them as Melanesian or Polynesian.
Indo-Fijians:

Indo-Fijians are descendants of Indian laborers brought to Fiji by the British during the colonial period to work on sugarcane plantations. They generally have South Asian features and a variety of skin tones typical of the Indian subcontinent.
In summary, while many Indigenous Fijians have dark skin, referring to them simply as "black" doesn't capture the full diversity and cultural background of the Fijian people. Please Subscribe to our channel
