[QUOTE]Originally posted by Masonic Rebel: [QB] Born in USA I’m a proud student of Afro- centrism; I came to this site to learn more about the civilization of Kemet from other well informed posters. __________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mansa Musa quote: One of the threads I created was about Egypt and the racist distortions of a specific page that will go unnamed sice people fuss when racist sites are mentioned or linked on here. The thread quickly degenerated into a "What race were the Ancient Egyptians" thread and those some people shared my opinion I was really surpised to see some anti-racists moderators even, take another side. __________________________________________________________________________________________________ I not surprised at all we who are into afro- centric thought know the Eurocentric oath. Molefi Kete Asante Thou shalt not accept an African origin Thou shalt not mock the white man Thou shalt not threaten the cultural imperialist Thou shalt not identify with any Africans Thou shalt not despise the legacy of the white slave owner Thou shalt not speak evil of Thomas Jefferson and George Washington Thou shalt not speak evil of Vladimir Lenin or Karl Marx Thou shalt not praise other African men and women Thou shalt not seek to create values for African survival Thou shalt not work to develop and maintain African identity Thou shalt not allow anyone to call you African Thou shalt not quote any African theorists This is what we believe as Fact On these facts we stand: *Ancient Egyptians were black people. *Egyptian civilization precedes Greece by several thousand years *The pyramids are completed (2500 BC) long before Homer appears (800 BC) *Philosophy originates in Africa and the first Greek philosophers (Thales, Isocrates) studied in Egypt * A discussion of the wise, wisdom, (sb) appears on tomb of Antef in 2052 BC *Thales of Miletus is not a philosopher until 600 BC It's simple yet this idea goes over a lot of people heads Yes most of us Aficans in America were brought over from West Africa true but still Our Great ancestors originated in Ethiopia the recorded birth place of the human race which is also so in Africa therefore we Black Americans have a connection to the continent. Now the Migration of Africans from Ethiopia or Kush to other parts of the continent is another topic. [/QB][/QUOTE]
