Rossniti and others,

Please continue to educate these ignoramus. I have never seen anyone deny their heritage as much as Africans.

Diop was called all kinds of names from Afrocentric, usurper to pure racist for exposing, no, rediscovering EGYPT as a Black Civilization.

In this day and age, who does not know that Spain, Italy up to the British monarchs have African blood still flowing in them?

You learn about Black Pope. They claim he was "white" North African! Before or after Egyptians were very black skin with woolly hair.

Some of us are just tired of these uninformed, uneducated and unlettered Africans.

Imagine, some of them argue against you in class in from of their white masters to get their PhDs.

A taya jor. Rossniti go on educating them. I nor get paws.

No wahala bro. I'm used to these types. Their problem is deep media/colonial brainwashing, handed down from their own colonised parents. This has made them imbibe a mentality of racial insignificance, and this makes them very hostile to new information challenging their state of self-reduction.

But you know, I regard the Bible - old testament in particular - as a veritable history book. I also know the ancient Hebrews, like the ancient Egyptians, were blacks, as testified to in the bible.

It was prophesied in Deuteronomy 28 that the Hebrews (ie the 'bantu', forest blacks) would forget who they were, forget their heritage, lineage, and history, and would be cursed with 'blindness', and other people would take their place and claim their heritage. In addition to their being taken into captivity ''in ships'', and scattered all over the world (transatlantic slave trade).

So none of this should surprise us.

Yes bro. That's the effect of slavery and media/education bamboozlement of modern blacks.

But our people are slowly waking up to their glorious history of civilization and enlightenment.

And to the fact that the people who told them they were an ''inferior race'' are congenital liars from the deepest pits of hell.

Jesus and Mary Were ORIGINALLY Depicted As Blacks throughout Europe and the Middle East. Until the middle of the slave trade era (late 17th century), when they began to WHITEN the images, to justify their lies about being ''superior''.

THE CONFESSIONS OF A COLONIALIST


Flora Shaw's (alias Lady Flora Lugard) book is an extraordinary look at the history of Africa, which she gathered from countless sources, and one would imagine a great deal of it came from the British Library and from the archives of The Times of London, for whom she had for many years been the Foreign Political Correspondent.

This book was first published 100 years ago showing the detail and descriptive power, and the greatness that Africa once was. Lady Lugard argues that:


"When the history of Negroland comes to be written in detail, it may be found that the kingdoms lying towards the eastern end of Sudan (classical home of Ancient Ethiopians) were the home of races who inspired, rather than of races who received, the tradition of civilization associated for us with the name of ancient Egypt. For they cover on either side of the Upper Nile between the latitudes of ten degrees and seventeen degrees, territories in which are found monuments more ancient than the oldest Egyptian monuments. If this should prove to be the case and civilized world be forced to recognize in a black people the fount of its original enlightenment, it may happen that we shall have to revise entirely our view of the black races, and regard those who now exist as the decadent representatives of an almost forgotten era, rather than as the embryonic possibility of an era yet to come."


"The fame of the ancient Ethiopians (ancient Kushites) was widespread in ancient history. Herodotus described them as the tallest, most beautiful and long-lived of the human races, and before Herodotus, Homer, in even more flattering language, described them as the most just of men, the favorites of the gods. The annals of all the great early nations of Asia Minor are full of them. The Mosaic records allude to them frequently; but while they are described as the most powerful, the most just, and the most beautiful of the human race, they are constantly spoken of as Black, and there seems to be no other conclusion to be drawn than at that remote period of history, the leading race of the Western World was a Black race."

No. But Yahweh promised that he would rescue his people from their debased condition, and that all the races who connived to put them down from their lofty position on earth, would pay the price.

I'm still wondering the relationship of the topic you dished out to the information you are putting out. Like l said earlier, there is no account of your ancient Nigeria conquering Europe.

That's what l expected to see or you did you open the thread for just argument sake or curiousity?

Use your head. I never said ''Ancient Nigeria conquered Europe''. I asked if ancient Nigerians were among the Moors who conquered southern Europe, especially given that parts of Northern Nigeria were once a part of the mighty Songhai Empire, the region from which the Moors invaded Europe.

The Great Sphinx of Egypt - Construction Date - PREHISTORY, ie 5,000 years to 10,000 years +



"All the Egyptians," wrote French scholar Count de Volney in 1787, "have a bloated face, puffed-up eyes, flat nose, thick lips – in a word, the true face of the mulatto. I was tempted to attribute it to the climate, but when I visited the Sphinx, its appearance gave me the key to the riddle. On seeing that head, typically Negro in all its features, I remembered the remarkable passage where Herodotus says:

'As for me, I judge the Colchians to be a colony of the Egyptians
because, like them, they are black with woolly hair...'

"When I visited the Sphinx, I could not help thinking that the figure of that monster furnished the true solution to the enigma (of how the modern Egyptians came to have their 'mulatto' appearance)

"In other words, the ancient Egyptians were true Negroes of the same type as all native-born Africans. That being so, we can see how their blood, mixed for several centuries with that of the Greeks and Romans, must have lost the intensity of its original color, while retaining nonetheless the imprint of its original mold.

"Just think," de Volney declared incredulously, "that this race of Black men, today our slave and the object of our scorn, is the very race to which we owe our arts, sciences, and even the use of speech! Just imagine, finally, that it is in the midst of people who call themselves the greatest friends of liberty and humanity that one has approved the most barbarous slavery, and questioned whether Black men have the same kind of intelligence as whites!

"In other words the ancient Egyptians were true Negroes of the same stock as all the autochthonous peoples of Africa and from the datum one sees how their race, after some centuries of mixing with the blood of Romans and Greeks, must have lost the full blackness of its original color but retained the impress of its original mould."

- M. Constantine de Volney, Travels through Syria and Egypt in the Years 1783, 1784, and 1785 (London: 1787), p. 80-83.

You don't know history.

In 1920 there were already big cities and superb architecture in Europe. That same time Africans were still living in huts and running naked.

I don't want to talk about America where skyscrapers were numerous in newyork during that same period.
