I have earlier proposed to use words like Congoid, central African or classical African instead of 'negroid'. Especially when you use words like 'negro' and 'negroid' (negro-like) as an anthropological designation you must be careful, because of the way racist colonial European anthropologists have treated the term 'negro'.
As you might know a myth has been created that 'negro' peoples have created no civilization: as soon as they encountered a highly advanced culture they labeled them for example Hammite, brown Mediterranean, Semite, and even Caucasoid, while the truth was that all peooples mentioned possessed dark skin and woolly hair, so the people who are not aware of these sneaky tricks of racists colonial anthropologists might end up believing that 'negroes' [Blacks] have never created a single civilization in the history of mankind, because all the books tell you that Hammites, Semites, sem-Hammites, brown Mediterranean, etc., and even Caucasoids are responsible for all the major civilizations in (and outside of) Africa. That's the point!
That's one of the main reason I hate the word, that's one of the main reason the word is so racist, that it's one of the most sophisticated ways the word is being abused to enslave the minds of Blacks (it makes them think they have no history so they will start to feel inferior, mentally enslaved), and that's why it's such a tautology to talk about the enslavement of negroid minds.
One Love!
It's gona take bravery to stop (mental) slavery!
