Saying that scandinavians etc.. were black is really a low point in this con business. But I think that there are some people there that can be converted. It depends how you approach them and how it's done.
i dont think thats possible, theyre ashamed of what the west thinks of as "primitive and savage" africa...these people are ststus chasers who want to impress white people with their "glorious african past"...thats why they make claims like the samurais in japan were black, the irish were black, etc LOL
You said it, but the best thing we can hope for is that through net more people will be exposed to real history as well as Africans who know of their own history, be them academics or not.
yes, the worse is that they are thinking it's a way to liberate themselves but it rather pushes people even more towards european ideal and alienates them. And will definitely not help in terms of race relations in the US.
im talking about the members of these cults...the west places certain values on certain cultural traits..among these are overly elaborate architecture, written language, etc...the majority of africa does not have this in their culture, so african-americans feel that their continent is inadequate compared to others, so they try to attach themselves to cultures that are vaklued by the west such as kemet, the hebrews, etc...but yes most AA are not like this
You're right some people, particurlaly the leaderships of cults, like to stretch facts and make up lies. But I think that even among the people who embrace that you have does who follow that because alternative information is not easily available. Those are the people who aren't disohonest with themselves and others.
i doubt it because they feel that there is nothing in africa south of egypt that will impress white people...thats what it all boils down to
