    Even more confusing, they label Sudanese, Ethiopians, and other Northern Africans as "White", even though they're Blacker than everyone in my family.🤦🏿‍♂️ Dr Mustafa Hefny literally looks like one of my surviving uncles, complete with Afros, but according to the U.S., he's considered a "White man" because he's Egyptian.🙄
    Even more crazy, we're considered "Black", yet the overwhelming majority of us have upwards of 23% European blood and SOME of us, Indigenous ancestry. We're our own unique ethnic group. We're composed of several different African groups, several different European groups, and several different Native American groups.

    the whole idea of race is just a social construct and not a scientific reality. All people are of the same race and there are differences in genetics but not in the basic species scientifically speaking. Although I said there is no such thing as race, I am using it as a common noun descriptor. If people who consider themselves white would really do research on their ancestors I bet many many of that group would find an ancestor who had slanted eyes or darker skin. The Mongols made it all the way to Germany and the Scandinavians made it all the way to China and the African tribes made it all the way north and also west. And there were no virgins among those warriors who were on the prowl. We are all mixed. and genetics of outward cosmetic differences has nothing to do with being smart or dumb or lazy or wealthy. Except for the brainworm of apartheid everyone is the same.

    A good friend of mine, a resident of NJ his whole life , moved to Texas. He got a speeding ticket in Galveston and on the ticket it had a box for race. The white police officer marked the race box with the letter B. My friend said he`s going to court ,not to fight the speeding violation but to fight why their is a race box on the ticket in the first place. I told him that judge can`t wait to throw your black ass in jail.

    I've never understood this obsession with ethnicity. People say they're white until they find they have a single ancestor who was black. Now they identify and go all in on the black culture. I don't see this same nonsense by the blacks who find some distant ancestor who was white and then identify as white and go all in on the white culture (if there is such a thing). It's all about narcissistic people wanting attention (look at me, I'm special). What utter BS. You are what you are, be proud and thrive.

    The construct has already been explored and locked into the fabric of this country and the world, Karen. That construct is basically called culture now. Defining white is a pointless exercise. Our major concern should be our Social Survival within that construct, based on our traditional values. Race will never be erased, nor should it be. We need to embrace our distinctive approach towards our lived in experience within this country, and outside of it by our relatives. That's the only planned response that matters, when it comes to building something solid for Black people here and abroad...

      @@KarenHunterShow Creating a constructive, concrete plan for our people, outweighs any so called divider concerning ethnic groups. Your comment is the perfect example as to why we're in our position currently, concerning cultural standards. Asian and Jewish culture's forward movement through society isn't based on trying to understand social constructs. They understand that integration and nationalism have to be combined, and must work together for any ethnic group to survive. They embrace cultural diversity, and hold on to their traditions. For our Social Survival, we have to learn to be just as courageous....

      @StrangerView-oy9bb Phoenician alphabet, developed around the 11th century BCE, influenced the Greek alphabet right?
      Which in turn influenced the Latin alphabet right?
      The Latin alphabet, originating from the Greek alphabet, became the basis for many modern European alphabets, including the ones used in English, French, German, and other languages right?
      The Phoenician alphabet was derived from earlier scripts. Such as the Proto-Canaanite alphabet. The Proto-Canaanite alphabet, developed around the 18th century BCE, itself evolved from Egyptian hieroglyphs.
      Egypt in Africa right?

    • @StrangerView-oy9bb
      @StrangerView-oy9bb 2 месяца назад

      @YoungBillyKatastrophe Phoenicians aren't from Africa and they didn't write or influence anything in Greece. The only non-European influence on the glory days of Greece came from the Persians and vice versa. There's remnants of Greece in modern Iran and remnants of Persian in modern Greece.
      Greeks already had an alphabet and a developed Empire BEFORE they ever saw any Egyptians. And you're from West or Central Africa, you would be a castrated slave in Egypt 😅🤣🤣🤣

      The mudhuts and "lifestyle" of africans was adapted for the environment of sub-saharan Africa. You never exported anything except slaves.
