It's the return of the black Moors with no fez
“Moor” is a centuries-old European term for Moroccans, North Africans and people of color generally. Most broadly, “Moor” can be thought of as a term which designated “otherness” to 16th century Europeans. It shares a kinship with the American term “Negro” and its derivatives. A Moor, to Europeans, was not one of “us,” in much the same way some contemporary White Americans regard Hispanic immigrants and inner-city communities of color as outside accepted cultural bounds.
A fez is a hat traditionally worn by Moors.
The fez also has a negative connotation, too, though, thanks to its long history as military garb, particularly by Mussolini’s Italian army. This is why Jay wants to distance himself from the hat.
