...call themselves white? I've been noticing this more and more lately on the internet. The ones who are most likely to say it are North Africans, followed by those from the Levant. Does anyone know why they call themselves white?

Shariif 'Aydaruus Shariif 'Ali records a tradition that the eponymous ancestor Samaale came from Yemen in the ninth century to settle in the Somali peninsula or Somaliland and founded the Samaale clan.[4]
Samaale is generally regarded as the source of the ethnonym Somali. The name "Somali" is, in turn, held to be derived from the words soo and maal, which together mean "go and milk"—a reference to the ubiquitous pastoralism of the Somali people. Anotheretymology proposes that the term Somali is derived from the Arabic for "wealthy" (dhawamaal), again referring to Somali riches in livestock.[1]
In Somali tradition, Samaale whose real name was Cusmaan received the name "Samaale" from his father Hiil who blessed him, after a miraculous raid which made the family wealthy overnight.
Then that means we're white too, since Horn Africans are Caucasoid as well.Skin color is just a color, not a race.
So yes they are caucasoids
