i dont understand how folks of west african descent can claim egyptian let alone eastern african descendance

its the same thing as white folks calling africa a country rather than the 50 or so independent countries it really is

I guess not so enlighten me. Africa is a monolithic entity. Everywhere in Africa has the same people and same history. Everyone in Africa was walking around with golden crowns too.

Right?

in a sense you guys have a point...BUT

where do you guys think these people originated from though?

Africa isn't a monolithic country. It's a fukking continent. Ancient Egyptians were East African, NOT West African.

Not everyone in Africa was a king and queen. Black people need to stop rewriting history.

Yes, because white people already beat us to it.

Understand that East Africa as it is today is NOT what it was hundreds of years ago. That's like saying WHITE people are indigenous to South Africa because of the White population there.

Those people (Middle Easterns) migrated to East Africa the same way that WHITE people migrated to South Africa.

Secondly, the picture is not "re-writting history" the messaging point is "Black people have come from great civilizations, kingdoms, ect. and in America we have been reduced to what we see today". Its really not that hard to interpret. I guess some things simply go over peoples heads.

I may be wrong but the people in the bottom pics aren't Egyptian.

Old. And black Americans aren't Egyptian. That's like saying that Germans are the same as the Ancient Romans.

Black Americans lost track of their lineage so they may very well have Egyptian ancestors...besides the point of the meme isn't Egyptian to American...it is talking about African Royalty to American Struggle.

Exactly!

I always laugh when some black Americans only attempt to associate themselves with the continent of Africa it through Egyptians and Ethyopians.

As if slave ships didnt get most of their cargo from SUB-SAHARAN Africa where the natives were mostly indigenous people and religion was various forms of what is now stigmatized and known as Voodoo. The blue eyed European came and told you to worship his blue eyed god and be his slave so all the sudden you swear you've been "praising the lord since the slave ships".

Take pride in all of your ancestry.

Edit: Some

And where do you all think Sub-Saharan Africans came from? They just plopped in outta no where huh?

Black people, learn your history, please.

why are you making a sweeping generalization about where we derive our pride as black men and women from? i know that many of us are proud of our association with ALL of africa. maybe you should have said "some black americans"?

I understand we all came from the cradle and moved throughout the continent but you are avoiding my point homie.

And dont get me started on history. I know my share and know enough to say that I dont know it all and anyone who tells you they do is a fool. I know my roots from the villages of what is now Guine, Burkina Fasso, and Benin to Haiti to here so buzz off doggie.

Point taken and agreed

 

[concise]

So who's the black Genghis Khan that we all descended from?

Its hilarious how we're all nikkas until it comes to Ancient Egypt, then its.....
