I may be new here but ive been following you people for years. pretty good stuff. alot of progressive thinking been going on latly and people like you are the cause. My whole family is african (from diffrent countries). and I've always been interested in diffrent cultures my uncle (who is egyptian) always told about egypt. and it was very fascinating.
I found this site about four years ago(I am now 17) and I guess you can say it kinda inspired me. I gradurated from highschool little early and I am now in college and though im still young and stupid i've manage to keep a 3.8 GPA. sooo yea thanx some of you people out there.
btw does anybody have a site where there are photos of egyptian and nubian mummies? HA! didnt think I had a point did ya! haha....yea..

Interesting my uncle is the same. He doesnt like being called black or white either. he prefers simple Egyptian or "African". doesnt like "African American" either. when ask him why he said that terms like "black" or "white" are just meaningless. And agree with him now a days I rather be called African than anything else.
It would be hard to tell people that im sudanese nigerian,liberian,ethiopian,egyptian all the time

I remember going to the Met and seeing high up in a near ceiling gallery the image I have attached below. Notice the A3MW chief's colour. I always wondered why he's so lightened up in other repros when the facsimile shows him deep brown?
This is a deliberate and intentional falsification designed to hide the chief's darker complexion than the rest of his tribesmen.

how is that a good find? he provides a BLOWN UP which could have been doctored. Lets see the normal photo with all characters. I suspect the dark one is a doctored photo.

Go tell the Met that Davies commissioned facsimile is doctored!
