You really want to take credit for what those Egyptians did thousands of years ago huh? :skip:
:snoop: another idiot tryin to get his troll on. fukk it I'll play along.

I don't want credit for anything. I'm simply stating why black people lump theirselves all in one group. It's because we don't know where we came from, and history has put us all in the same situation, therefore we all identify with each other instead of trying to figure out who exactly descended from where.

Ok I actually don't know what the fukk is going on in this thread..I skimmed and may have missed a lot. From what I see this conversation is so twisted at this point. So I'll make my views clear just in case I completely misunderstood what the fukk is going on..

1)Complexion is illegitimate when it comes to the black race.
2)If you discriminate on other black people based on complexion you're no different than the white supremacists who discriminate against us and claim we've contributed nothing to human history.
3)This color complex we have is not only found among black people it is found in many different cultures that have suffered colonialism.

When a black person expresses pride in listing the accomplishments of blacks he's doing so as a defense to the white supremacists who claim we are unequal. There's nothing wrong with that.

What 1%ers. What proof do you have that black Americans are descendant from west Africa? How do know the people from west Africa didn't have descendants from other parts of Africa? What about west Africans mixing with other Africans once they got to America? What about the black people that came here before slavery? What about black people who are still mixing today? What percentage of my heritage needs to come from a certain place for me to identify with that culture? Shouldn't I embrace all my ancestors?

Point is, you have no clue if it's 1% or 100%. Come on **** use facts and logic here.
Damn if Hitler used that logic when he tried to make Europe into his "Aryan" race he would have won easily. All he'd have to do was fool people into believing ancient Greece had a bunch of blonde haired blue eyed people walking around.... or SOME blonde haired blue eyed Greeks walking around.

I'll definitely add that to my list of tools I'll be using to take over the world. Brilliant. :ohhh:

Not liking me or making up lies about me doesn't mean I'm dumb Gerbil. You're broke in Canada. Haven't accomplished shyt. I'll always be more intelligent than you, no matter how much gas lighting you try to use. Do you think attacking strangers on the internet changes facts?

And I'm sorry but talking on a podcast or sitting in tinychat all day doesn't mean shyt. You compared a country's history to a continent's history. That says enough about your remedial education level.

When it comes to stalking nikkas online that's what YOU do. When it comes to biology, chemistry, anthropology, sociology, geography... you know shyt that actually MATTERS in the real world you have NOTHING on me. So shut the fukk up and go on cbox and cry about me some more you lemur looking loser.

I'll bite, Derek.

A countries history compared to a continents history. Is Ancient Egypt a country?

:laff: don't play your self. There was no such thing as a "country" in ancient times, or even up until the formation of the modern nation state. So if you are descendant of West African slaves, you can look to the Ancient Egyptian region as black history. Your assertion is as foolish as saying that Brazilians can't look to MLK, or that Americans cant look to Mandela.

That's all you get ****, I hope you solve your sexual crisis friend :cheers:

Hows Mary Kat or whatever, the tranny that you eat lunch with at your community college? :laff: :laff:

Isn't it funny when I debunk a strawman argument and then someone runs into the thread using the same exact argument? :dead: Dude compared a country to a continent. . . . .

This is exactly what I was talking about.


Ignorant white man: Chinese and Japanese are the same!Japanese man: No they are not you ignorant American. We have different histories, cultures, and customs!.

Ignorant white man: All black people are the same!Black man: Well since you wanna put it that way.... shucks.... well you know. I gueeeessss it could work. I mean having black skin makes us all have the same history, culture and customs after all. Plus we all black anyway.

Comparing statements about Race vs Nationality...

Thats okay though right?

I'm not against it. I'm against inconsistency. Every other continent has countries with separate histories, ideologies, customs, languages, ect. It works because countries become more competitive which makes them strive to out produce each other. I don't care what industry you name to me, every industry is always booming when there is a lot of competition. No one is in competition when they are singing "Kumbaya let's all hold hands."

If you truly want to paint Africa as a monolithic, homogenous entity then that's on you.

Ancient Egypt was a civilization populated by what we now know to be "Black People". This is a historical fact. You can take it however you wanna take it. When Black Americans, who have been disfranchised, abused and enslaved for the last 4 hundred years think about their ancestry, they think of slave ships.

If the Chinese can be proud of their thousands of years of achievement in numerous fields, why cant black people be proud, in this racist world, of achievements that their people have done in the past?

Your own words Furby. And making up lies about me doesn't help your argument. I thought you had me on ignore though. :dead:

Ok let me rephrase that for you.

Ignorant white man: Asians are the same!
Asian man: No they are not you ignorant American. We have different histories, cultures, and customs!.

Ignorant white man: All black people are the same!
Black man: Well since you wanna put it that way.... shucks.... well you know. I gueeeessss it could work. I mean having black skin makes us all have the same history, culture and customs after all. Plus we all black anyway.


Better? I used those countries to illustrate a point that would be easier for you people to understand.

respect, usa

Please name me a bigger accomplishment?


And to all those, I am definitely not saying full black Americans haven't achieved greatness. I simply stated that a lot of the more significant achievements have been by bi-racial people and some of other acknowledgements that they get that in turn fall into "black achievements" because of the one drop rule.

I believe if this classification went away Black Americans would struggle for relevancy in an ever increasing multicultural society.

The Wrong Side of the Tracks
This argument again.....:shaq2: Let me try and put this to rest once and for all.

Point #1: There is no need to co-opt Egypt if your ancestors were slaves.
West Africa was civilized prior to the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade by Africans and most of us here can probably trace our roots to one of these (or about a dozen more) civilizations:

Kingdom of Nri - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Oyo Empire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Benin Empire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kaabu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bonoman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ashanti Empire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Point #2: We don't 'claim' people born of mixed ethnicity to be 'Black'. That is what the world identifies them as (based on skin color) and how they view themselves (based on culture). The problem is the world sees being 'Black' as a negative attribute because of 'White people'.

Point #3: 'Race' is a folk tale created by 'White people' given credence by false science and doesn't exist.​

:ehh: It's a little better it.

It still doesnt work because like I pointed out before. Prior to the diaspora we started in Africa. What kept "Sub Saharan" and Saharan Africans from commingling? What was there to keep Eastern and Western Africans from Commingling? Prior to Arab rule they were the same people.

Not liking someone doesn't mean they can't be educated or intelligent. I hope you people realize that shyt. There are plenty people I know who are total a$$holes but they are damn near geniuses. Can't stand them but they are still intelligent. You having some beef with a stranger on a forum doesn't make them stupid.

MLK movement is bigger in my eyes.

And no Blacks won't, Blacks even tho only about 12 percent of this country, have establish themselves as part of this society, and in all reality it's too late, even if that classification goes away it will mean nothing.

Cause all you have to do is go to a Black family reunion, are you telling us, those light skinned members of the family, are gonna say they are not the same thing, as their dark skinned cousins, aunts, uncles, Grandmother and father.
