How Africa Civilized Europe And What They Paid Back https://www.nairaland.com/4829034/how-africa-civilized-europe-what Wealthy Ancient European intellectuals of Arts and Sciences in Greece and later in Rome, craved knowledge and civilization from African masters. Just as investors in search of fortune sponsored explorers into Africa. They went back home to educate their people in light of what they had learned in Africa. In view of the stories they heard from travelers, African civilization was beyond their imagination. In fairness to these early students of African masters, such as Thales of Miletus, Socrates, Isocrates, Pythagoras, Hippocrates, Diodorus, they gave credits to the dark skin, straight to wooly black haired Africans of Ethiopia, Egypt, Sudan and Meroe. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/science-news/3293164/How-Imhotep-gave-us-medicine.html 1 Like |

No matter how our youths are spoon fed with history, they will rather hear it from their colonial master. But then it was not their masters that stopped teaching history, it was the order of Nigerian politicians. They were educated in the skill of medicine, sciences, mathematics, philosophy and more. Only the privileged in their communities could be educated in Africa. There was no doubt or questions about the African civilization. Of course, some Africans had mixed complexions still reflected today throughout Africa. But to label them “white” or even “half-white” is a revision of facts and history to suit the narrow mindedness of 19th and 20th centuries Eurocentric racist-pseudo-scientists armoring African Arts and Sciences. |

nobaga: Nigerians didnt invent Eurocentrism, West Asian fundamentalist and the Abrahamic religious text. The number one reason for the lack of acknowledgement of African history are the Eurocentric aspects of Western Education, West Asian propaganda and the Abrahamic religions. |
