Xen's Mixed Bag

"The general problem confronting African history is this: how to recognize effectively, through meaningful research, all of the fragments of the past into a single ancient epoch, a common origin which will reestablish African continuity. … If the ancients were not victims of a mirage, it should be easy enough to draw upon another series of arguments and proofs for the union of the history of Ethiopian and Egyptian societies with the rest of Africa. Thus combined, these histories would lead to a properly patterned past in which it would be seen that (ancient) Ghana rose in the interior (West Africa) of the continent at the moment of Egyptian decline, just as the Western European empires were born with the decline of Rome."

Africa came into the Mediterranean world mainly through Greece, which had been under African influence. The first Greek invasion of Africa was peaceful and scholarly. This invasion brought in Herodotus. Egypt had lost its independence over a century before his visit. This was the beginning of the period of foreign domination over Egypt that would last, in different forms, for two thousand years."

Diop writes, "The Ethiopians say that the Egyptians were one of their colonies which was brought into Egypt by the deity Osiris. The Greek writer Herodotus repeatedly referred to the Egyptians as being dark-skinned people with woolly hair. "They," he says, "have the same tint of skin which approaches that of the Ethiopians." The opinion of the ancient writers on the Egyptians is more or less summed up by Gaston Maspero (1846–1916) when he says, "By the almost unanimous testimony of ancient historians, they [the Egyptians] belong to an African race which first settled in Ethiopia on the Middle Nile: following the course of the river they gradually reached the sea."

"The Greek writer, Herodotus, may be mistaken," Cheikh Anta Diop tells us, "when he reports the customs of a people. But one must grant that he was at least capable of recognizing the skin color of the inhabitants of countries he visited." His descriptions of the Egyptians were the descriptions of a Black people."

The above Cherifa represents is just a glimpse into the vast information which can be used to refute such uninformed supremacist propaganda. I could also take you into the work of
Richard Leaky http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/homs/rleakey.html and Donald Johanson

http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/homs/djohanson.html

Anthropologist who have made discoveries of the oldest known humans in the Cradle of Civilization, Africa.

Donald Johanson in his in depth interview regarding the origins of man in Africa, discusses his discovery of Lucy, the genetic mother of mankind. 
For real proof look at the genetic table of races represented in the tomb of Ramses III (twelfth century BC). there it shows that the Egyptians perceived themselves as Blacks. In fact, the Egyptian artist does not hesitate to represent the genetic type of the Egyptian as a typical Black, a Nubian.  Karl Lepsius, a white scholar from Germany who made this discovery , was surprised and wrote: "Where we expected to see an 'Egyptian' we are presented with an authentic Negro."

This ruins all of the tendentious studies of ideologists and demonstrates that the Egyptians did not establish any ethnic difference between themselves and other Africans; they belonged to the same ethnic universe. 

I could go on and on but the sad thing is a lot of the white supremacist refuse to research or to think out of the box. Many of them know the truth and do all they can to refute it to no avail, others are simply repeating things they have been taught to say. I can only say when I hear something from them I consider the source and very seldom try to argue or debate them. I strongly believe in the statement that if you argue with a fool, you become one.

Always,
