[QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by tropicals redacted: [qb] @Sudanaiya Interesting. In your view, would most indigenous ancient Egyptians today be considered 'black' in the US and elsewhere in the West? [QUOTE] What's with all this nonsense about ancient Egypt being 'mixed raced'? What is it based on? The People in the North may have been 'mixed-raced', but the majority of ancient Egypt's population was concentrated in Upper Egypt between Aswan and Luxor, so I have to dismiss this assertion immediately. [/QUOTE][/qb][/QUOTE]What's so 'interesting' about what I said? I know the western media would have you believe that Northern Sudanese deny their blackness and that we have race wars, when this is actually a gross and insulting simplification of dynamics in Sudan. Our President repudiated the notion that we deny our blackness. Not only could the ancient Egyptians be clearly identified as black in any place on earth, their modern descendants in Luxor, Esna, Edfu, Kom Ombo, the Siwa Oasis and the Red Sea coast [admixed with foreigners as they are] can still be described as black. Source: http://sudanwatch.blogspot.com.au/2007/02/sudans-bashir-were-all-africans-were.html To be clear, I don't support Bashir and I recognize that he actually did support the Baggara Arabs against the Fur, Masalit and Zaghawa tribes, but it wasn't a race war.
