Humanity started in East Africa so basically, white ppl with blue eyes and blond hair have East African origin. They look like us, it's not the other way round... out of all the explanation, this is the one I prefer to go by but ppl also talk about the back migration where humans first migrated to other continents and then came back to Africa, specifically the East and mixed with African ppl. The other reason ppl give is the "mixing of ethiopian ppl with the arabs during the axumite period". I personally dont believe this. Besides even google says east Africans are the original semetic ppl and tgrgna, amharic, guraggna and geez are much much older than Hebrew, Arabic and other semetic languages so it would only make sense if they came from us and not us from them. Also, not all Africans are dark skinned, there are lightskinned indigenous southern african tribes. Even northern africans like Moroccans n stuff say they're lightskinned black ppl. Yeah they look Arab but they're amazigns which are indigenous to africa. At least that's what they say... bcha Ethiopians aren't the only lightskinned africans
