“ππ¦ πΈπΆπ» ππ’π―π¨π΄!”
The world needs to push back against America’s sick, woke, fake, politicized leftist culture - because that’s where this BS originates
We are the (neo) Marxists now.
Egyptians are probably the most offended, they do not like to be referred to as African.
“the racial identity of ancient Egyptians has been a topic of spirited debate for decades”
No, it has not. You can’t call something a debate when one side is 100% supported by indisputable evidence, and the other side has no evidence at all.
Didn't know that insanity had jumped the pond. I guess African Americans are just that cool, right? /sarc
I think there might be a good argument that the citizens of Egypt were black; however their leaders could have very well been a different race entirely.
Cleopatra - “and nothing is known about her maternal ancestry”
________________
Another wrong! There is a lot known about her maternal ancestry:
Ptolemy dynasty followed Egyptian customs and married within the family, often their sisters! Or at best the other Macedonians.
Exception - One ancestor was Persian princes.
Cleopatra has no Egyptian ancestry and definitely not any Black one.
As far as king Tut, he was al least Egyptian.
But Egyptian are and never been black.
The only time there were black pharaohs in Egypt was the Kushite 25th dynasty (ruling long after king Tut) Piye, Shabaka, Shebitku, Taharqa (known as Tirhaqa in the bible) and Tantamani.
It is actually kind of sad. The Black Americans has so few real heroes, they have to invented some more.
Egyptian authorities are no fans of european museums anyway, given how much of their egyptian artifacts collections were basically stolen. But beyond that they have special antagonism to the intellectually corrupt Afrocentric ideology.
"Some people" just want Cleopatra to be herself - Greek.
I am nauseated by the continual parade of IGNORANT people full of hate. Especially the formally educated IGNORANT ones like my BIL and his half wit commie school teacher wife. You can't get much more ignorant than a Jew who supports anti Semites.
When I look at the ancient bust of King Tut (see accompanying image) - I see African features. One of the objections to the Dutch exhibition is from Egyptians offended at Nas/Tut being made to look like a contemporary black rapper.

I’ve noticed they be dissin on the Egyptians lately. First Cleopatra and now this.
It appears as though the Africans have jumped the shark. They want to paint everything and everyone black. Sickos think they’re Mick Jagger.
Blackfacing is just someone saying blacks have nothing to be proud of and need to steal the history of others.
