I've read that you use the term 'pseudo scholar'to presumably describe African-American academics who argue that the Ancient Egyptians were black Africans.
Could you give your definition of 'pseudo scholar'? Diop and Obenga wiped the floor with the 18 or so hostile academics in the peopling of the Nile symposium 73-74. Are they pseudo scholars? Robin Walker and Runoko Rashidi demolished Oxford Don Stephen. Are Walker and Rashidi pseudo scholars?
How confident would you be debating the so-called 'pseudo scholars' on whether the Ancient Egyptians were black Africans?
I'm giving serious consideration to doing MAs in Egyptology and Bio-Anthropology here in London, followed up by a Ph.D in Egyptology. Given that my academic approach would be that the Egyptians were black Africans, would that make me a 'pseudo scholar'?

I said to avoid non-scientific terminology.
'White' is not anthropological valid, neither is 'Black'.
AE was a Caucasoid civilization. I would probably breakdown its subracial composition as follows: Mediterranid (80%), Arabid (10%), Nordid (5%), Armenoid (3%), Alpine (1%), Turanid (1%).
Negroids only arrived in AE, as late as c. 2000 BC as slaves.

Afrocentrism is rejected, and is pseudo-history.
The mainstream view regarding ancient Egypt and race, is that the AE's were 'North Africans'.
Everyone knows North Africans are Caucasoid. Its just that political correctness has now restricted most scholars using Caucasoid or racial terminology, so instead they just say 'North African'. Same thing though...
A typical North African looks like this -

Ha,ha,ha:

^^^notice Nordid (5%)
there goes the Nordic Egypt concept, even if 5% it's pretty small

Sorry dude not gonna take the bait.
You throw around 'pseudo scholar' but won't define what you mean. And no, you wouldn't publicly debate said pseudo scholars because you know that they are actually experts.
I'll tell you something, I'm confident that in a debate between so-called 'Afro-centrists' and mainstream Egyptologists on whether the Egyptians were black Africans, the 'Afro-centrists' would present a far more convincing - nay, irrefutable - case.
