NW Africans are mainly indigenous with about 8% recent paternal Sub-Saharan African admixture. To complete the picture, lets look at the picture from mtDNA. Again, it is clear that maternal ancestry is not shared between Negroids and North Africans to a major extent. The Moroccan Berbers are 96% Caucasoid and 4% Negroid. The Senegalese are 96% Negroid and 4% Caucasoid maternally.
Mitochondrial DNA analysis of Northwest African populations reveals genetic exchanges with European, Near-Eastern, and sub-Saharan populations

Volume 62 - Issue 06 - November 1998
From Table 4, page 545
Caucasoid Sequences, labeled L3E and U6
Portugal 97%
Moroccan Berbers 96%
Algerian Berbers 82%
Moroccans (non-Berber) 78%
West Saharans 56%
Mauritanians 57%
...
Senegalese 4%
Not too different from the Portugese actually.
Coon must have been high on something when he made these observations!
