my joint finally got published fam!!
I was gonna bootleg this shyt anyway
Help put the COLI on the map and let's NEG Train the "Exodus" Movie.
The Goal:
To give this movie the lowest online rating in film history
Background on the film:
“The defiant leader Moses rises up against the Egyptian Pharaoh Ramses, setting 600,000 slaves on a monumental journey of escape from Egypt and its terrifying cycle of deadly plagues.”
Thats all great and fine but guess what? The film has no black people in it!
Here's some quick notes:
The Greek Writer Herodotus Said "The People Of Colchis Must Be Egyptians Because Like Them They Are Black-skinned And Wooly-haired."
The Greek philosopher Aristotle writes in the 4th century B.C. in Physiognomonica that the "Egyptians and Ethiopians were very black."

Vivant Denon says this in his journal after going to Egypt and seeing the Sphinx before Napolean damaged it.
"...Though its proportions are colossal, the outline is pure and graceful; the expression of the head is mild, gracious, and tranquil; the character is African, but the mouth, and lips of which are thick, has a softness and delicacy of execution truly admirable; it seems real life and flesh. Art must have been at a high pitch when this monument was executed;..."
The Hollywood whitewashing of black history has to stop. People constantly argue that the Egyptians are not black, they are middle eastern, well that is a very weak argument because the middle easterners who are Egypt were never indigenous to Egypt. Similar to how the white people in South Africa are not indigenous to SA. Many writers and philosophers who traveled to Egypt prior to the sphinx being vandalized have noted that the features of the sphinx matched the people of Egypt who were black.

Greek writer Herodotus also said that the sphinx had black features. "The People Of Colchis Must Be Egyptians Because Like Them They Are Black-skinned And Wooly-haired."
Why are people LYING and saying that Egypt was anything but black? Even Aristotle (Greek philosopher) writes in the 4th century B.C. in Physiognomonica that the "Egyptians and Ethiopians were very black." I bet you the people claiming Egypt is non-black would have a hard time arguing that.

There are tons of literature and hieroglyphs that suggest that the Egyptians were black yet there is no literature that remotely suggests that the Egyptians were white or had light skin. So why is there still a debate?
It is laughable that people still refute the fact that Egypt was a black population. Te word 'Egypt' means black in Greek for crying out loud, lol.
Saying that Ancient Egypt was populated by Middle Easterners is like saying Ancient South Africa was populated by white people. The middle easterners didn't arrive until the 7th century.
The reason why Riley made an all white adaptation of this movie is because hollywood knows the power of propaganda and they know that the more they lie about Egypt being non-white the more it will be accepted as the truth, the same way we used to accept the lie that Columbus discovered America..
