If Athena was Black how does that impact your life today?

If you got kids, you can stop teaching them lies. Colonialism starts in the mind, perpetuates via the body, and ends with the land.

Why does knowing the truth need to have some immediate financial or economic impact for it to be valuable or worthwhile?

i don't have kids but I went to schools with euro curriculums and they are the same around the world.

we should lobby to rewrite education and curriculum in general to reflect accuracy if you really feel that way. it doesn't benefit your kids as much if they still have to compete and excel in a curriculum that isn't updated. so that in the future people are not learning about history like this on youtube videos instead of class. otherwise it continues to be "woke knowledge" that isn't applicable in education arenas. I mean kids are still learning about Columbus...

we need to start challenging what our kids are being taught same way crakkkas went at CRITICAL RACE THEORY

be all up in the council meetings and force curriculum overhauls because we wield the same power IN UNITY.

There's no need to be as dumb as you are. If Africa is the birthplace of modern man, then it makes sense that the color black could also represent life, fertility, and plentifulness. Since in a way, it already does.

Now just because some arab broad can't see past her racism to put the two together doesn't mean I have to follow. But you're too limited to understand that.

the symbolism doesn't make sense unless explicitly stated. Thats like saying every black pigmented person on a stature was representing fertility but when it comes to the kings/queens/royals then it adopts a symbol metaphor... instead of it literally being an accurate representation of the leaders and what they looked like.

why does it have to be symbolic and artificial when it comes to black skin color but accurate when it comes to modern day Egyptians?

I took your original post to be sarcastic. If not, what exactly you were asking?

But it didn’t. Painting statues black was a sign of death and eternal life.

Also Athena was based off of the Egyptian goddess Hathor.

there were non royals who were depicted as BLACK though. Not red. Not tan. Black. So why adopt the symbolic explanation when it comes to black people but accuracy when it corresponds to everyone else?

Look, I'm not saying symbolism is impossible. I'm saying that when it comes to just depictions of the people present, we can't do both, but we dont need to trade off.
