  • "Black-Africa" makes sense when you consider that the continent is populated by more than just Black Africans. The populations of Libya and Tunisia are different from those of Nigeria and Senegal. So that's where the racial distinctions come in when describing the different people on the continent.

  • @CrowdPleeza The other races in Africa is not legitimate residents but illegal aliens.

  • One reason alot of pre-European contact African history isn't well known is because few Africans in west,central and southern Africa developed a writing system that would allow you to track their history through their writing. This explains why much of what we do know about pre-colonial west Africa came through Arabic sources.

  • @CrowdPleeza No white archaeologist refuse to believe that blacks was capable of any kind of civilization advanced or primitive.

    Yeah I know Nubians developed writing. I'am not saying no Black Africans developed writing. It's that those in west,central and southern Africa didn't develop the type of writing that allows historians to trace their history using their writing as records. This is why it's hard to know the full history of the Yoruba people before European contact for example. We have to rely on oral history for the Yoruba before Europeans because they don't have written historical records.

  • @CrowdPleeza What about Nubia and Aksum they have written language.

  • @GozzyWozzy

    People in Timbuktu were using Arabic writing not any indigenous west African writing. So those books were probably written in Arabic. I've heard of the Nok culture but I'am not aware of that culture developing writing.

  • @CrowdPleeza WHat about Timbuktu? They had a big book trade and they sold books. Also did you ever hear about the Nok Culture?

  • @JETTYAGE

    Bullshit. Freedom of movement. Everyone should be allowed to live wherever they want. Africans should be allowed to live in Europe, and Europeans allowed to live in Africa.

    There is no such thing as "illegal aliens".

  • @Satansoppressed does this mean you believe in apartheid?

  • @GozzyWozzy

    I looked that up. It was said that Mandombe was created in 1978. That's after European contact. My point was about there not being any pre-colonial indigenous African writing systems in west,central and southern Africa that could be used to track their history. Again most black Africans before European contact recorded their history orally. Writing systems in west Africa came after European contact like the Vai script.

  • @CrowdPleeza What about Mandombe? That is in Angola.

  • @GozzyWozzy

    I was talking more about west,central and southern black Africans.I know some west Africans developed writing especially after European contact. I don't know of none that developed a pre-European contact indigenous writing system that allows you to trace their history through their writing. Again this is why historical info on these Africans is limited. Most Africans in west Africa recorded their historical info orally with the use of griots.

  • @CrowdPleeza There is nsibidi, bamum, Mende, Ge ez, axum, there are many writing systems in africa. Who told you thes lies?
