The color of the night sky or ink when there is no light.

A person who belongs to a dark-skinned, Negroid race.

This is an outdated anthropological term used to describe the indigenous population of Africa (south of the Sahara) and some peoples of Asia. Modern science, particularly genetics, has refuted the biological basis for such a division, recognizing the concept of race as inaccurate and outdated. The terms dark-skinned and black-skinned are used instead.
