Zunabīl Class Structure in Houthis
The article addresses the phenomenon of class discrimination and racism among the Houthis, who divide society into two classes: the Masters (Al-Sadaliyun), whom they consider to be the nobility, and the general populace, whom they refer to as "Zanabíl" (ragpickers). The text demonstrates how the Houthis exploited traditional Arabic concepts of "Zanabíl," which were historically used for transporting goods, to reinforce a racial classification. They see their own lineage as superior and describe others as belonging to lower social classes. The article highlights how this racial shift reflects the utilization of ideology to justify dominance and social stratification, illustrating the deterioration of principles of equality amid the political conflict.
