ACCORDING TO 17TH CENTURY CAC ARTWORK, INDIANS IN THE AMERICAS LOOKED LIKE THIS??

[Everythingg]

So Dark Skin and having an Afro is what makes people "black"?

You didnt read what I said? Calling a group of people "black" as a nationality/race is a construct the so called "white" man came up with to hide history. And to reiterate, no matter what modern term you want to give the aboriginals of America, we are NOT taught that they were dark skinned having afros. We are taught that every black man is from Africa which couldnt be further from the truth...

My question requires a simple Yes or No response.

No it doesnt because to answer YOUR question YOU have to define black. I'll wait

Watch the detractors, they don't want you to believe your "lying eyes"

 

[Grand Conde]

Isn't it widely accepted that the indigenous people of the Americas ranged from dark to light or am I missing something.

Indigenous peoples of the Americas - Wikipedia

Yes. I'm looking at the OP wondering what he thinks is surprising.

Try what? Breh tried to derail thread with the "what is black" bs but he doesn't even have an answer to give. I'm not the OP but I assume this thread exists to point out how native americans were dark skinned people with Afros and not those Asian mixed breed people with straight hair not to go over the semantically argument of what constitutes "black"

 

[humble Hermit]

Cut the shenanigans breh...

Now this isnt the US but it is the west indies. Whether you want to be semantical over the usage of "black" which was a term the "white" man came up with to cover up history, thats on you. But to us who accept that in modern times "black" refers to dark skinned people with afro like hair, thats exactly what the aboriginal people of America were. Black. And even if they werent "black" by modern terms but dark skinned like Indians from India, is that what we're taught in school? Or are we taught that the "natives" were those mongloids?

These are clearly descendants of Africans in those photos. Maybe a carib/kalinago here or there, but not a good photo for this flawed narrative of what natives looked liked in the Americas.

Afrocentric history in a nut shell.

If Native Americans had any significant contact with Africans then they would've developed African immune systems and wouldn't have dropped like flies when contracting flu, malaria, measles, cholera etc

Ahh the common cac tactic. Every black man in America was African or worse, a slave lol. You guys give the white man so much credit/power that you literally think he went to the west coast of Africa and from there populated all of the Americas with the blacks that are there now?



Some of those blacks were there already. Calling themselves, Mayan, Aztec, Incan etc... But they confounded them and now you aboriginals of the Americas think that everyone that looks like you came from the continent of Africa when some of you were already here, or came from the RULING CLASSES of Europe before cacs took over. Learn yourself some history breh... And on that note:

These are the Incas, clearly a dark skinned people, and the last guy is a a ruler of EUROPE, again, clearly a dark skinned person... Cacs lie, but the pictures do not.

This isn't really "afrocentric"... The thread has nothing to do with Africa...
