A little off-topic, but I've often asked myself, why would the negro dress as an arab or visit a mosque, or practice islam, when the history of arabs is one long litany of slave raids throughout the african continent?

They’re hoping that by pleasing an arab, and adopting their customs, they won’t be captured as slaves; it’s the Stockholm effect:

“Stockholm syndrome is a psychological response “... in which the hostage shows signs of loyalty to the hostage-taker, regardless of the danger (or at least risk) in which they have been placed.”
