I think the main problem with this issue is that today's society thinks only in black and white terms...literally. From the research i've done i think we should think of ancient egypt as a modern-day america: a multi-cultural society. There were people from all over the place. For example, Akhenaten was probably mixed race 'cause his mother was black; and Ramses II is known to have had middle-eastern blood. Things aren't always that clear cut. We should learn from Dr Zahi Hawass.

@blacklion105 They dont care about what shade you are. They have goals set for us. Were nothing to them. I dont care what shade you are. Instead of fighting about things that will never benefit us. Really! They never will. Who cares who was pale, dark, yellow green. Were all in the same boat. We should be looking at the main agenda thats coming our way. Its coming fast.

@AFRICA4AFRICANS You guys are ridiculous with this race crap. The Human race is one big family that came from a common origin. There is no proof or DNA study of Ancient Egypt being Black or White or whatever, only a DNA study on modern Egyptians that show they are predominantly of North African ancestry. That's all. So you guys really need to stop with the racism.

@blacklion105 As a matter of fact, just start with The Arrivals pt 2 (mind control feat George Carlin) in your youtube search box.

[DJVBasil]

@blacklion105 Its way deeper than the Matrix were in. Watch "The Arrivals", put - The Arrivals pt 1 (intro) - in the youtube search. Its a great video collection that will blow your mind. Pay attention if you watch them. Youll learn alot. Part 1 is just an intro thats a bit slow. Dont judge it by Part 1 lol. This is the stuff im talking about. Enjoy.

@blacklion105 Very true. We were all created in one place. Now, what latitude and longitude a peoples are on determines their shade, hair, bones, noses, etc etc. Its all science. Even though i wont agree with 99% of the scientific lies they come out with today.

@blacklion105 Thanks alot. I try lol. The way this world "really" works is screwed up.

[blacklion105]

@DJVBasil You a very deep thinker i respect your outlook on the subject :)

[blacklion105]

@DJVBasil O no im not mad at your thoughts. All im pointing out is that somehow people tend to escape what is being said by the so called Afrocentric the name they have giving people who fight for the Egyptian culture. Thats why i used Native Americans as an example. Ive heard people from New Zealand for example tell Maori people right here on You tube go back home...im thinking what the fuck they was the first to settle those lands not unless someone else was there. So its the same example.

@blacklion105 My comments might sound a bit too straight and have the appearance like theyre aimed at just you. Dont take it wrong. I love everyone, and hate everyone.
