There is a real painted bust of her where she looks nothing like that. She was obviously darker skinned and of east African origin which is why Iman looked so perfect depicting her in the Remember the Time video. But this is what happens when black people don't go into diverse fields...they are literally repainting ancient art white in these tombs because they want Egyptians to be white so bad, though religiously and anthropologically, they historically, can't have been. If more black people worked in anthropology/archaeology we could tell these stories....but we don't and so this is the type of whitewashing we get.
Cleopatra...let her be white, she was...she was also running the empire into the ground. In fact, once the Greeks got there, Egypt had long faded from the glory it once was...Cacs can hang onto that lackluster era, but the era of Ramses III and the Rosetta stone....we can't let them white wash that...literally biblical history right there.
i knew what it was gonna look like before I clicked the thread
