I don't doubt for a second the author's narration. It is obvious to most people that racism can exist anywhere. By that obvious logic it would be surprising for racism to be absent in Arab countries. That some consider themselves to be free from racism isn't really a surprise either - self delusion is also a fairly widespread human trait
However, I think we should be cautious about generalising from this account and making sweeping statements about the entire Arab world. It's not just about colour either. I have encountered similar use of abusive language in West Africa where terms referring to lineage are also used by some as insults
Unfortunately some trolls are already dancing with glee and using the piece as a stick to beat "the Arabs" round the head with - delicious irony (endofdays I mean you - and I invoke Godwin's law
