I'm sorry for the late reply. Completely forgot about it.
If you're going by the "Out of Africa" theory, then you're going way too far because that'll mean we're all Africans. The first people who settled in Europe weren't white, but darkskinned. In fact AFRICANS because according to the "Out of Africa" theory, life started in Africa. However that was hundred of thousands years ago.

The white skin mutation ONLY took place in Eurasia, so of course the rest of the world maintained their dark skin.

The Aborigines of North America weren't white, the Aborigines of Australia weren't white either. But the fact that they were DARKSKINNED doesn't make them Africans either, we've been separated for very long to say that, just like we've been separated from Europeans for way too long.

The only difference is the mutation that affected the skin color and eyes, to sum it up - melanin

Spot on, however this concept flies over Amujale's head each time you try to steer him to the right thinking. He dismisses your claims as falsehood yet he really doesn't grasp what you are trying to convey because he lacks the genetic component of his argument that completely destroys his assertions. You can keep trying but you are just beating your head against a stone wall.

HE DOES NOT GET IT!

Eventhough i agree with much of your post, the above that does not read too well.

The fact that they are darkskinned infact does indeed make them African due to the fact that they hailed from Africa, which in itself also makes them African.

The basic truth is that in those days, everyone is African and therefore everyone at the time was darkskinned or have the adequate amount of melanin to assist humanity.

In todays world, maybe possessing darker skin doesnt automatically make you African, however in those days, before the 'Out of Africa' experience, everyone was African and as a result all humans alive at the time possess all the African features.

Nonsensical. Which "days" are you talking about. You can't even put dates to your assertions or a time continuum to support your garbage.

Let me help you.

100,000 to 200,000 years ago Homo sapien emerged. During this period there were waves of Humans leaving Africa. These humans approximate phenotypical representation would be closer to what Africans look like today. This is a PROBABILITY and not AN ABSOLUTE.

2. These humans bottled necked into smaller groups with lesser mutations than the ones preceding them. This event would alter their genetic makeup as well as their phenotypical attributes. As these groups splintered they carried smaller genetic variations among the groups that drifted. In addition to encounters with other human species i.e. Neandethal and Denisovan the picked up additional genetic material.

3. Phenotypical changes occurred based on selective breeding, adaptation to environment, nutrition and random genetic mutations. Some people retained their African features while drifting genetically away from Africans. Others lost African features and gained new features while still staying closer in genetic morphology to Africans. This is the reason a European is genetically closer to an African than a Papau new Guinean even though the papau new Guinean still physically resembles an African.


Keep spouting your fake pseudo science based on Afrocentrism. Fact will always win at the end of the day


Amujale:

Please stop all attempts to try an differentiate ancient Africans from their modern peers. It didnt make sense to differentiate then, and it certainly does not make sense to differentiate ancient peoples from their post-modern peers of today.

Africans are the only people that have the RIGHT and the correct qualifications to determine who IS or is NOT African.

And most Africans agree with me on the fact that African ancestors are very very African.

Hence, everyone on planet earth at the time possess African features, therefore, everyone in those days was African.

The people that took part in the 'Out of Africa' experience, are African for thousands upon thousands of years before taking control of other regions on planet earth.

I.e The first people to occupy the Europe lived as part of a larger African family thousands upon thousands years prior to their migration.

Therefore, the first wave of people to arrive in the Europe in anyone's mind are indeed African.

Appreciate the great beacon of our world that is called Africa, stop trying to stifle her.

Lets employ common sense.

No common sense at all, by your definition above everyone that lives outside of African are all African then including Europeans so regardless of physical appearance since their ancestors hailed originally from Africa you should call them African going forward.

Well the point is that ,everyone in the world have good reason to appreciate Africans diversity.

The reason everyone appreciates the diversity of Africans is due to the fact that modern day humans enjoy their current genetic make-up as a result of Africans and their ancestry.

Africans invented, or are gifted with', THE generic building blocks responsible for, and traceable to , what is seen in post-modern day humans.

Every group of people have diversity in look and in features. This includes Africans who are not a monolithic group by any stretch of the imagination.

We understand you want to propagate an Afrocentric mind set but please not at the expense of scientific facts.

Europeans did not invent intelligence nor can they deny fact. The data is reproducible as regards genetics everytime which is why it is FACT!

Native Americans do not have the same genetics as Contemporary African peoples therefore they are not AFRICAN in the way it is understood genetically today.

That's my point Sir, because I find it hard to understand your kind of English language in this context on word and antonym. How do you call Africa diverse when you don't even understand subgroup or ethnicity? As simple as the word diverse, it means ‘different,unlike, separate' etc while the antonym is ‘same, homogeneous'. In actual fact, you are the one muddling things because I don't just understand where you are heading because Africa is filled with Ethnicity, her dialects and tribes in some cases.

From the above, I only posited as others that your assertion is pseudo unification of Africans whose history are apparently different one group to another, while you don't even know ‘jack' about culture and religion of these people, which is the binding factor of each kingdom. Take for instance, Yoruba don't and didn't operate with a Mumbo-Jumbo pattern of salvagers but a civilized system of agriculturists and balance family with a monarchial system.

Comparatively the continent of Europe understanding themselves is of a recent acceptability through intermarriage and Christianity among each group after hundreds of years of wars in these different kingdoms in Europe.

As far as I am concern, the big picture should be the whole world if you are a peace lover because having a emotional perspective of Kwame Nkurumah is baseless because it can't work. Do you know Yoruba fought Nkrumah's Ashanti Kingdom? Pick up better books to read. As far as I am concern your Afrocentric aspiration is on a futile journey because even some white racists can't void the fact that human Race begun in Africa. Afrocentrism has no future because the world is a global village which is and Africa is mother of all mankind. Are you even aware tbere are so many Southern Nigeria whose history is connected to Europeans? In the oil, timber, manufacturing sectors etc ,we have Europeans who are married to southern Nigerians from their days in pre colonial era even till date, my question are:

1. How do you expect these partrilineal white descendants see your view?

2. Do you even know the admixture amongst yorubas ?

3. Are you even mixed at all even if it has been over 20-30 generation?

In conclusion ,Nigeria as a country remain the case study because it inhabits more than 180,000,000+ people while still counting.So your perspective must consider Nigerians in whatever area you consider for your Afrocentrism.

Without a shadow of doubt, there are distinct and undeniable found connection between the indigenous Americans with much of mainland African culture.

There are various theories to explain that, one of the leading theories is an African viewpoint, indigenous Americans are said to have come from the line of the Olmecs.

According to Jose Melar, the Olmecs are supposed to have migrated from Africa (is comprehensively addressed in the “Olmec alternative origin...” documents).

Again, modern day African scholars identify Olmecs with the Mandé people.

Interestingly,I can see you claimed diversity and ethnicity yet you disagree with the intent of the word subgroup, is this not rhetoric? Anyway, good to know you posted your views as it relates ethnicity but your perspevtive does not support the meaning of subgroup. What exactly is ‘SUBGROUP'? My knowledge of the meaning is a ‘small group within a larger group; a group whose members are some, but may not all be of the members of a larger group'. Take for instance, Bini kingdom is in Edo land and the Yoruba created Bini through conquest out of the IDU-IGODOMIGOD.And the Bini kingdom went further to subdue the non yoruba speakers. Plainly , Bini is a subgroup of yoruba people. My point here is that your view of diversity can't be managed properly until each group develop differently before trust and economic benefit can foster friendship across borderline.

And you, being an Pan Africanist is good but can it stand the test of a lifetime? Perhaps. On my part, I choose the pattern in which Yoruba ancestors did because they know the world and not colour of mankind. Àfíìn( Albinism) has always been part of Yoruba worldview and are treated with speciality because of their skin. So in effect, there are postulation that claim that white skins are a product of skin disorder. In reality, languages differentiated the whole word but the people remained the same even if we have people who are racist or who feel superior over others as you tend to position yourself.

Most social- scientist will tell you "sub' is not a good description of anything.

In social science, to call 'anything' sub is to accept that its inferior to something else.

And does not describe Africa.

Let me prove to you that the term 'sub' is not to be used in the African context, and that the term 'sub is unAfrican. i.e use a more accurate term "South of The Sahara" DO NOT say or use "Sub Sahara"


Africa comprises of various ethnicity.

As in, no one ethnicity is seen as superior to the other.

The term "sub" is a socio-scientific construct that has its maiden use in the classification of non human species into inferior and superior classes.


Americans, Asians nor Europeans DO NOT use the term 'sub' when describing the people of their nations, Africans shouldnt uses that term to describe ourselves.
