[QUOTE]Originally posted by lamin: [QB] [QUOTE][b]I'm not sure we should pay much attention to the whims of white racists. Black people could win the greatest academic prizes in the world every year for decades, and it still wouldn't change the minds of the racists. They would simply move the goalposts and enter into laughable contortions of logic in the same way that Anglo does. So even if there were universal agreement tomorrow that the Egyptians were black Africans, I'm not sure it would do much to erase whatever racism still exists. Entertainers and athletes have a far greater social profile than scientists and academics - it's why I think the growing number of black players in British soccer is a good thing. It has the potential to serve as a basis for mainstreaming your worldview and interests. It reminds me of something I've heard young south Asians bemoan - academically and economically, Indians in the UK/the English-speaking West are successful, but they don't have the cultural profile/media presence of black people in the African diaspora. Likewise with the Chinese, they would like greater media representation.[/b][/QUOTE]Must have been some kind of error. I did not post the first part of the above. It should be part of a quote from elsewhere. [/QB][/QUOTE]
