I think that's when we first saw tweets of Egyptians being mad, but the show wasn't cancelled yet.

how did Arabs/Muslims "invade" Egypt in the 600's if Arabs were already there?

Back then it was just people on Twitter getting mad at him, and not even that many
This one of those times when Twitter actually reflects real life

I don't know if the ancient Egyptians were black, but what I will say is, if you just took a glance at America and Australia, you would think the natve population never existed there. Now just imagine 5 to 10 (maybe even longer) thousands of years ago with limited records on the people. People used get conquered all the time.
That’s bc it goes in to religious beliefs that people don’t want to acknowledge. Like ut oh, Moses was probably a light skin black dude and the people he led out of Egypt were probably black Israelites
That self hate is a motherfukka
Kevin told the truth, which also means that Arabs are not Egyptians. They are invaders. Arabs are the Asiatic sandwellers that were discussed in the biography of Pepi. Arabs invaded Egypt at the time of Muhammad's death to spread Islam.A large number of Egyptian Pharaohs were e1b1a, which is the same markers as a lot of Sub-Saharan Africans and African Americans. So Kevin Hart is correct.

A few 1000 Middle Easterns already being there is different than a few 100,000 with a different culture just showing up and taking over everything.
Part of the Mohammedian conquest to spread Islam after the death of Mohammed. They also invaded the rest of North Africa as far as Morocco, but they were stopped and beat down while trying to go South into places like Sudan and parts of West Africa.

Modern Egypt =/= Ancient Egypt
The modern folks are mostly Arab and think it's "their" history......Ancient Egypt was diverse. You had Black, white and brown Pharoahs....but most were brown/Black until the very end when the Euros came in.
Egypt was more like America in that being Egyptian didn't automatically mean you looked a certain way. Compared to "China" where 99.9% of the people there look Chinese or some kind of East Asian.
Whites battle us on Egypt because their whole identity is tied to us being somehow inferior....so all the colonization they did was justified. They don't even understand African history and think that the only civilization was Egypt. They don't even know about Songhai, old Mali, BaKongo etc. They like the idea that we just lived in huts and did nothing until they arrived.....since all they know about African history is Egypt, they got to go out of their way to separate modern Blackness from it.
It would be like Black folks saying that Ancient Greece and Rome were separate from Europe.....Euros don't do that shyt. They claim all their history as one because they want the credit, even their ancestors were just peasants living under Danelaw.
Modern Arab Egypt claiming Ancient history is like a 100% Euro Spanish dude from Mexico claiming Aztec and Mayan shyt. Like yeah you "from" there but your lineage isn't from there and your history is from elsewhere (in Europe, not the Americas).
