Preface this with "who cares if africans were in America before Columbus. History isn't a competetion".
That's the problem with most blackologists. You treat it as a competition.
Africans, west africans were not seafaring peoples. They had no need to be! They would not reach America consistently in their boats. I say consistently because of course a few could survive capsized boats and drift to America.
This isn't difficult, african slaves were brought here and when given the opportunity they did what humans do, had children with other available humans.
The children who were half black and half Indian, some of them were trying to escape slavery by finessing and claiming they were white or Indian. Can't blame them cause who wouldn't? Certain states took steps to stop that by clarifying those children were not white and not escaping slavery.
No one cares about "honoring black peoples indigenous rights to land". That's not how the world works! They TOOK the real native american land and told them go live on these reservations!
I never said anything about Africans.
Sweet potato is native to South America, but was found cultivated throughout the Pacific islands by early European explorers (Hartmann 2, et al. 1988). A sweet potato, being much less durable than coconut, could not have reached the islands by means other than human transport.
It is of no coincidence that the South Pacific is home to the great seafaring Polynesian people. Polynesians were sailing far and wide in the South Pacific long before the Europeans. Their culture revolved around it, as in the myth of Ru and Hina, two ancestral Polynesians who sailed the seas and discovered new lands (Pape-au, 1824). Using only the stars, the sun, and knowledge of currents, these people sailed their double-hulled canoes all over the South Pacific. Colonization of the islands in the South Pacific is believed to have occurred from west to east, despite the presence of easterly trade winds and currents. Nevertheless, linguistic, cultural, physical and archaeological similarities betwen Pacific islanders and Asians support this theory (Finney, 1976).
Ben Finney proved that long-range sailing without navigational instrments could be done successfully in 1976 when he sailed a Polynesian replica double-hulled canoe from Hawaii to Tahiti and back"
But the European would rather have popular belief be that it took the great mind of the white man to be "sea fearing". And that you couldnt do it using a damn canoe
. Just because they needed all those gadgets,because they werent in tune with nature,doesnt mean it couldnt be done. I dont think you would deny that their were in fact "black"/African looking Pacific Islanders. Unless your willing to go on record today and say that. Then you can no longer deny #WeWereAlreadyHere factually.
Now heres where yall tell me "bu bu but Pacific Islander" doesnt show up in most of our 23 and Me Benefited"
. Well first of all those companies admit they dont have enough sample sizes for accuracy. Not to mention they dont have the knowledge of history for accuracy.
But one reason you have no point there is because last I checked,most black people havent taken those test to make that assertion. Plus the main reason you have no point is that I dont put a number on it,as theres no way of knowing. If the test could be 100% accurate,and only showed up on 50,000 black peoples results out of 40 million. Would it change the fact#WeWereAlreadyHere
You will have to save those arguments for people who contend that he transatlantic slave trade didnt happen in the numbers they say it did,and that most of us are native Americans.
Yall have fun with that,im only here to provide reasonable doubt on the Europeans narrative you blindly believe and parrot. Im telling you a narrative is just that without all the facts.
And who cleaned it? Lmao
