um...in the 16th century Britain was white and normal. You probably had lingering resentment about the Norman Conquest (white people taking over white people). The thing when I was younger in Scotland in the '60's was dark Scots and lighter Scots. That would mean dark haired people of Celtic roots as opposed to blonder people, who were offspring of Viking and Scandinavian immigration. Still white people though.
There wasn't the ease of travel 500 years ago for cultural exchange that we see now, that's all. Nothing to do with discrimination as it's pretended to be now.
