  • no no, to hell with this "we are one race crap" everywhere I go on the net to research this subject, there's some lying cracker with a chip on his/her shoulder asking "why are black always trying to claim egypt" and "what does egypt have to do with west africa" well now you know, it was all an achievement of BLACK people.

    deal with it.

  • The dogons are only one " ethnic groups" among a myriads of African ethnicity that are connected with the Ancients Africans civilizations of egypt and Nubia. The entire west africa and central african traditions are open books connecting modern world with the ancients in science, linguistic, religious practices, diet, daily life, child rearing and economic systems. But, well I don't want africa to be stuck in its past though, we gotta move out poverty.

  • @Mrquinton7 What is a sub sahararn afriacan to begin with so called sub saharan africans aren't just one phenotype!! There are several not to mention, countless statues depiect obvious black folks

  • @Mrquinton7 read up on it. there were several invasions into ancient egypt, from the hysis, to the assyrians, to the persians, to the greeks, to the romans, to the ottomans.

    all GRADUALY lghtened the skin of egyptians

  • @rasheedzee The sphinx is thought by some to predate the pyramids that surround it, and the same with a few other structures. This implies that there was an antediluvian civilization. Is it your belief that it was blacks which created this earlier civilization and were than supplanted by modern egyptians who than created the pyramids? Or do you believe that blacks built the pyramids as well. At what point in all this do think they were supplanted by the egyptians we see today?

  • @Mrquinton7 that's a lie. I was looking at a picture of nubians painted reddish tan and another one of egyptians and nubians both painted pitch black, so there's that.

    you asking about modern egyptians is like asking why the japanese don't look like the inu they supplanted.

  • @rasheedzee a@rasheedzee then why is it rasheed that all the statues of pharaohs and wall carvings of egyptians working, and living their lives depict a lighter people with arabic/caucasoid features. Why is it that modern day egyptians also possess these features and if subsaharan black Africans were a significant demographic in egypt for the thousands of years then why isn't that legacy still evident in the faces of Egypt's people and the carvings of its past.

  • @TheKenTerry LLLOOOLLL.

    have you convinced yourself that africom is going to be a sucess? or prehaps you'll attack them with low birth rates?

    you're truly affective trump card is the sore loser retaliation of nuclear holocoust, since biological warfare in the form of aids has back-fired.

  • @rasheedzee

    lol i'm pretty sure we are already taking them.

  • @TheKenTerry in a couple of years, you'll be begging africa for resources.

  • @rasheedzee

    Lol great achievement...maybe in a couple of years Africa might learn the wheel.
