It depends on which Moors you are referring to. There were Moors of the Eastern Hemisphere and there were also Moors of the Western Hemisphere, oriental and occidental. When most people do research they hear about the Moors of the Eastern Hemisphere from Africa and Spain. What is not known is that the Moors were a global people. They were also native, indigenous, autochthon, aboriginals of North, Central, South America and the Caribbean islands before the times of slavery and Christopher Columbus. After slavery they were labeled and tagged as Blackamoors, free negros, free blacks, free colored people, blacks, colored, West Indian, Afro/African American(s), second class citizens.

∙ 7y agoThe Moors or Berbers, correctly called Amazigh, are the indigenous people of North Africa. The term is a corruption of the the word "Mauro" which was the Roman term for a person who came from the province of Mauretania-Tingetania, which was located in modern Morocco and Algeria.
The view that there are Moors who are indigenous to the Americas is not supported by any evidence and the numerous terms used to refer to Blacks in the America only came into existence when Blacks were brought en masse to the Americas as slaves.
