this article to those people who don't know anything about the native people of north africa:

The Origin of the word ‘Berber’ is:
The name “Berber” is an outward origin and is not an Amazigh word. In our language, Tamazight, we use the name “Imazighen” to describe ourselves (singular masculine is Amazigh; singular feminine is Tamazight). Throughout the history, the word “Berber” is derived from the Greek word barabaroi, Latinized barbari, which denoted people who did not speak either Latin or Greek or to refer to non-Phoenicians within the Carthaginian state. Ancient Greek philosophers and writers also used “Libyan” as extra name that indicate to the inhabitants of North Africa while also speaking of other Berbers “Imazighen” as the Numidians, “the Nomads,” a name that reflected that most of them practiced pastoral nomadism. With the arrival and the conquest of the Arabs in the seventh century, the word barbari had an Arabized form, al barabir or barabira with negative connotation of meaning “Highway Robbery’.
Today, the native people of North Africa use the collective designation or name “Imazighen” (singular is Amazigh, i.e., free men and women), and “Imazighen” is the word that embodies the Amazigh sense of being the real and essentially human beings of their homeland, called Tamazgha “North Africa”. Tamazgha is the land where Imazighen have lived and settled down since time immemorial and captures the state of being free from domination of others. “Tamazgha” and “Amazigh” are words by which indigenous peoples of North Africa contrast themselves to outsiders and foreigners during the cycles of violence and conquests that Imazighen suffered at the hands of numerous invaders from the Phoenicians through the Ottomans and Arabs to the French and Spanish and now Arabs again, and their usage over time has intensified Amazigh feelings about freedom and nobility and other essential human qualities of themselves. In the words of anthropologist Edward H. Spicer (1980), they are an enduring people, and their enduring qualities depend on continuous possession of a homeland sustained by such constructs as ethnicity, language, and culture.
