Zambia's forgotten space program 1964

Back in 1964, a Zambian teacher vowed that his country would beat America as the first country to put a man on the moon, and then they would go on to Mars. Unfortunately, his dream never came to fruition. The Zambians worked hard, though. His "astronauts" rolled down hills in barrels to get used to traveling through space. They practiced walking on their hands, as their leader assured them that was the only way to get around on the moon. But it all came to nought, because the United Nations wouldn't give him the $700 million he needed to fund the space program.

Wrong. There is NO reason to believe that the Ancient Egyptians were black. - The only blacks in Ancient Egypt were wearing chains and performing manual labour.

This is too funny... like Tintin in the Congo. These savages couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery, let allone get a man into space

You're wrong about the first two claims, and just because members of the 25th Dynasty were born in Kush does not mean that they were ethnically sub-Saharan Black Africans. They were in fact the descendants of the Egyptians who had been ruling that region as part of the Egyptian colonies.

An Afrocentrist's life's work can be summarized by saying : "...an inferiority complex is a terrible thing to waste."

Apparently all North Africa was inhabited by white peoples in ancient times. This is due to the fact that Sahara prohibited travel and migration, and both Egypt and rest of North Africa are open to Mediterranean Basin, not to Subsaharan Africa. For a similar reason, there are no 'yellow' peoples in India - Himalaya and Indochinese jungles make travel harder than Iranian plains.
