Then tell them the rules.

1. You can't use images from ancient rome depicting them as white.

2. You can't use the fact it is in Europe.

3. You can't use DNA testing.

4. You can't use historical documentation from accredited historians of the time from neighboring countries (aka unbiased opinions.)

5. You can't use customs and practices that only white civilizations use.

And when they say :mindblown:"WTH, that is exactly what proves they are white!" You go, "Then why doesn't that stuff prove the Egyptians are black?"

Then drop the mic. :sas2:

Rome was obviously a cosmopolitan society.
The issue with asking this question is that White scientist have DNA tested waaaaay more ancient Romans from a larger time span while the mummies tested are only from 2 dynasties. They aren't too eager to test Egyptian mummies from dynastic times and we know why.

Cacs romanticize a version of Egypt that is on the decline and has started intermixing with the surrounding Mediterranean cultures through trade. The Cleopatra phase if you will

Chiek Anta Diop pointed this out in his book "Civilization or Barbarism."

There's a section in the same book mentioned above
"Civilization or Barbarism" he adds in history, geographic movements of groups, and how the source of african linguistics ties in with egyptians writing (because the ancient egytians are africans).
