What has the black nation done to disprove their theory?

Another pretty European American that chooses to say the truth.

I just love the way she gave "education" a complete breakdown.

She deserves a spirited round of applause.

So much, its common knowledge that humanity began in Africa.

African historians have been educating those that are able to learn.

The problem has always been West Asia and Europe's ability to manufacture various versions of false history at will.

The woman in the video cited a good example of Christopher Columbus false claim of discovering the Americas.

There are countless similar instances.

The bottomline is that Africans have been in existence since the dawn of time, whilst Asians and Europeans are relatively new comers to planet Earth.

Everyone that studies African history ought know that already.

According to African history, Humanity began in Africa and then our ancestors went on to populate the rest of the world.

Africans are the first people to explore and populate all the other 'continents.

Africans invented paper and they invented the ink pen.

Africans discovered the concepts of literacy.

Africans discovered the concepts of numeracy.

Civilization began in Africa and then it proceeded to trickle out to the rest of the world.

Everyone currently living on planet Earth all descend from African ethnicities.

Jane Elliot is correct with her lecture in the video, there's only one true version of history, the other versions are false.

Anyone that wants to know about history ought study or read history textbooks authored by genuine historians.

They came before Columbus by Ivan Sertima is a history textbook.

African People in World History by J. Hendrik Clarke is a history textbook.

A History of the African-Olmecs: Black Civilisations of America from Prehistoric Times to the Present Era by Paul Barton is a history textbook.

The African Origin of Civilisation by Cheikh Anta Diop is a history textbook.

Not Out of Greece: African Origin of Western Civilization by RA UN NEFER AMEN is a history textbook.

Read, listen to the audios of, study and research upon books authored by genuine historians.

Just to be clear, eventhough i agree with the main thrust of Jane's lecture, yet i disagree with the assertion that suggest all whitesic people are "racist".

I disagree on multiple counts.

Firstly, race or racism doesnt exist, discrimination and bigotry is what realy exist.

Secondly, since what she really meant was to suggest that all whitesic people are bigots, then one can easily disagree with that assertion aswell.

Furthermore, its the various Eurocentric institutions that are infact discriminatory and displays all the signs of "white supremacy".

Western education teaches a wrong, unrealistic, spiteful and discriminatory narrative on history.

Western education on history and almost any other subject is simply wrong and unrealistic.

The contents on most subjects are normally correct i.e mathematics; but the history of how they got the content is usually wrong and spiteful.

For example, Pythagoras didnt invent the Pythagorean theorem, Africans did. Yet Western education continues to teach that thorem as though it was Pythagoras, when in actual fact African mathematicians have been using the thorem in their calculations even before Pythagoras himself was born.

Agree 100% and no one woman can speak on behalf of all white people, and no one woman can speak on behalf of all black people.

And that is all Africa has to show in these times that they as smart, civilised and advanced as other races? I ask again, what has Africa and Africans actively done to disprove their enemies that they are equal if not superior to they that look down on them? We can't even live in peace with each other talk less of building any meaningful thing. Heck we can't even manage our societies like civil people. Africa is full of sell outs, greedy and highly sexual men who only focus on acquiring wealth and keeping women subservient. No plans for the future of their societies, no desire to sacrifice for the betterment of their communities except it benefits them personally. I am sure those that were great in Africa are also different from the current ones. The present day African has no plans for his world.

Barring her generalisation, much of the stuff you state above are merely symptoms of the issues that Jane touched upon meticulously in the video.

That is the functions of us all, to educate those that are ignorant of the facts.

Humans arent mechanical objects, we have emotions and these are the things that the West Asians and Eurocentrics continue to dominate.

You ought to stop blaming and speaking ill of the innocent and instead work towards fix all the nonsense the ancient West Asians and Eurocentrics caused.

For one to be able to determine where it is one is supposed to be going, one ought to be aware of where one is presently and where one has been in the past.

The African ought to concentrate on all that makes us that which we are.

Stop the searching for nothingingness.

Be content with just being from the place we all now call Africa.

One that refuses unpleasantness is said to moves further away of something pleasant, both these human emotions would normally approach us simultaneously.

All the answers to any problems arent outside of the vicinity of those that would have experience such, all the unfettered solutions are easily found from within such vicinity.

Lets say for instance, one day science allows for humans commute to the planet Mars.

Then anyone that has a sitiation to solve on the 'Red Planet' can only find the unfettered solution there.

There needs to be a brand new way of understsnding our true place in the world and how it's meant to translate throughout the universe.
