[QUOTE]Originally posted by 8man: [QB] So much of western fantasy and imagination is tied to Ancient and modern Egypt, there is tourism, there are ruins and artifacts worth millions, there is the prestige for the modern post colonial nation states in the region, there are scholars who need and want access to these countries, money is involved here, even, perhaps poorly done or argued scholarship, that asserts alien and ancient astronaut contacts with ancient peoples--tied up with both Ancient predynastic or dynastic Egypt and Sumer, not to mention New Age spiritual ideas as well as a revival of occultism around its supposed mysteries, that the afrocentric voice is lumped in and denigrated with so called pseudo-science rather than embraced as a legitemate revisionist history that might be onto something. I’m not a debunker of these other so called “pseudo-sciences” because I think it’s a cheap and derogatory term to dismiss what might or could be true. I have my doubts about much of it but I’m not going to condemn it as pseudo-science, it’s too vague a term and I believe critics should forthrightly express their disagreement rather than call things names. Afrocentrics believe some of these other beliefs around Egyptian “mysteries” are part of the cover-up, white denial, of the truth, just other attempts to deny the obvious: attributing civilization to aliens is a way to avoid the fact that blacks gave the world its first civilizations. I can see where white scholars who might see the facts are afraid to tackle this for reasons of both perhaps their own racist upbringing and presumptions and ignorance, the society of their peers, or just a fear of not getting access to ruins and artifacts or being ridiculed by their colleagues if they step across the sacred consensus of acceptable orthodoxy, you could lose tenure—one remarkable lesson the science fiction book Dune teaches is how orthodoxies easily tends to replace each other with a mirrored fanaticism—science has replaced religious orthodoxy with its own around evolution and the big bang, and even people who can’t explain these believe in them and tell you to believe in them without discussion—it’s what science says—so it must be true—so many people are so far removed from intellectual academic culture that we have to take their word for it—well, that should not be acceptable to science nor honest inquiry--on top of that, there are class differences, working class people and intellectual people or people with intellectual pretensions have no contact with each other, don’t associate with each other, they don’t have the same education and social life in common--there are questions of access to resources that would aide better scholarship…it’s a real shame…but blacks ought to try and convince, if not whites, other blacks, of the importance of this, not in terms of racial identity but exposing the harm racism can do and has done to the search for the truth around black contribution in history. This history needs a defense and argument that supports further and more thorough research and stronger presentation—who knows what other discoveries will confirm the truth on these matters, only time will tell, but sooner later irrefutable proof or an unarguable defense will be brought forward to the mainstream public. What I hope to do when I get the time is to provide a reasoned defense of the study of this question—I think it must be emphasized again and again that the rabid racism of the past and today against blacks that has denigrated them, such a bombardment of hatred could explain the blowback of denial and avoidance of facts, as in the Sumerian example, and what is self-evident in the images all over this website of clearly black people, some negro looking or mixed, that seems to be deeply connected to Ancient Egypt, Pre-dynastic and later. Don’t despair because of it but don’t turn your knowledge of the truth in the defense of any kind of counter racism, which allows racist to get off the hook, which allows them to forget their rabid racist history and abuse of their own methods of science and which allows them to overlook their intellectual dishonesty.
