[QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri: [QB] Calm down son and stop anachronistically conflating. This post, though not properly citing references is unlike your earlier one which just reposted a section of something posted days ago, and is more worthy of serious response. The only sleight of hand in evidence is foisting this post as your previous one which was Snowden's critique. If we were given the page numbers for the Rogers quotes we could examine who he cites in each instance and thus see if the idea originates with him or is that of white scholars of the time. Rogers works [i]Sex and Race[/i] (1941-1944) and [i]Nature Knows No Color Line[/i] (1952) are overflowing with footnotes citing the over abundance of sources he referenced. Perhaps if you actually have the books in hand you could do the research to see who's originated the propositions you cite. Then too, it will take further contemporaneous research to see if they were downlevel when Rogers was published. For instance H.H. Johnston and A.C. Haddon said that Elam was negroid. For sure, no one who wants to be taken seriously nowadays champions the ideas of extreme diffusion, fanciful etymology, or Mesopotamia predating the Nile Valley although the disciplines of history, archaeology, and anthropology didn't begin to jettison them until quite recently and as far as Mesopotamia predating the Nile Valley still has not relinquished that idea.

[i]"Ethiopians, that is, Negroes, gave the world the first idea of right and wrong and thus laid the basis of religion and all true culture and civilization." --Joel Augustus Rogers The Ganges, the sacred river of India, is named after an Ethiopian king of that name who conquered Asia as far as this river... --Joel Augustus Rogers The Negro was the first artist. The oldest drawings and carvings yet discovered were executed by the Negro people 15,000 years ago in Southern France, Northern Spain, Palestine, South Africa, and India. The drawings are on rocks, the carvings on bone, basalt and ivory. --Joel Augustus Rogers Elam, a mighty Negro civilization of Persia, flourished about 2900 BC and is perhaps older than Egypt or Ethopia. --Joel Augustus Rogers [b]The Bible really originated in Ancient Egypt,[/b] where the population according to Herodotus and Aristotle, was black. Here the Jews recieved almost all of their early culture. --Joel Augustus Rogers [/i] How is this not directly quoted from his writings??

Don't post excerpts though, [b]quite a few wordsmiths here will not hestitate to flip things around and find a way to make it defend Afrocentricity.[/b][/QUOTE]Let the sleight of mouth antics begin..
