[QUOTE]Originally posted by Brada-Anansi: [QB] I was about to make a new thread but this will do just fine; The history of why blacks esp.New World blacks focus on Kemet. There was a time when most black gave Egypt a wide berth. beleiving it an evil land connected to the wicked Pharoah who enslaved a people much like themselves called Jews, they like the Jews of the Bible awaited a deliverer..a Moses type figure. Ethiopia was different because their slave owners sometimes made reference to them as Ethiopians,and those who could read the bible saw Ethiopia as the promise land, But as literacy grew they began to dig deeper into Bibical lore,they hit upon the table of nations and all those begots...remember the curse of Ham was still being taught as fact in Sunday Schools in both Black and White churches,..but a quick look at the sons of Ham and doubts about Ham's decendants being hewers of wood and drawers of water..quickly spread. The decendants of Ham seems mighty beyond beleif, They also notice that many of the son's of Japath were now claiming some sorta of kinship with at least two of Ham's son Canaan and Miser, That.. what was once Black and acursed has now became white and glorified..they began to go out and find the truth for themselves...They were aided by the works of Gaston-Masporo C.f Volney,Garhold Massey and others, Later they would formed their own Historians such as Arthur Schomburg, John Wesley Cromwell, Kelly Miller, J.A. Rogers, John Henrik Clarke, Dr. Ben Jochannon, John Jackson, Drusilla Dunjee Houston Charles H. Wesley, Monroe Nathan Work, Merl R. Eppse, C.L.R. James, George Padmore, and George G.M. James ...These men and women would be often ridicule by the establishment for seeking to give the Negro as place he did not deserved...thanks to these men and women and others yet to mentioned...we have a sence of who we are and our place in the world. But the official break through has to go to two Africans Cheikh Anta Diop and Theophile Obenga who put the intellectual smack down in the Symposium in Cairo, Egypt in 1974. and things has never been the same ever again..ever!!. Gone were the days when we could look at the Ten Commandments without protest, when National Geographic Magazine could print milk white Pharoahs without a single letter to the editor. Today the Euro-centric view of Kemet is all but dead save for a few trolls who pollute the internet in general and this forum in particular. [/QB][/QUOTE]
