I agree but most people aren't making the distinction. They are saying Egyptians are "Black" and not being specific and saying "East African somewhere between Uganda and Ethiopia." It gives White "Egyptologist" ammunition to say we are just trying to claim it because it was in Africa. Being specific helps. I'd also like to know more about Western African Ancient Civilizations and it seems no one knows or talks about it ever. I wouldn't even know where to start since sites like Wikipedia don't even have more than a paragraph on it. \
You also didn't explain that chart. Is it saying most Ancient Egyptians are similar to those in modern day South Africa and the Lakes? So that would mean they were more likely similar to Kenyans and Tanzanians than Ethiopians and Eritreans?
White people are full of sh*t. They want to sit back and claim the greatness of the entire White race but, divide Black people up into groups. Nah, B. In school we learned about the British Empire, Ancient Rome, Ancient Greece, The Ottoman Empire, the Byzantine Empire, France, Spain, Portugal...even the Russian Tzars and sh*t. 12 years of schooling rammed into your head about how great the entire European race was and how different White civilizations conquered the Ancient world but, it's a problem for Blacks to be proud of our African brothers on the other side of the continent. Fukk that. They can eat a dikk.
Here you go. The Mali Empire was as trill as gets. Any packages moving west of the Sahara, they got points off it Mali was the source of half of the Old World's gold. Half, B Timbuktu had the ancient world version of the Library of Congress. During their time period, they came second in size to the Mongol Empire. To put it in perspective, the Aztecs were around during the same time and Mali was the larger civilization between the two yet most people know more about who? The reason you don't hear about Ancient Mali like that is because whites know there's absolutely no way they can lay claim on it, so it's not important.
