[QUOTE]Originally posted by Nodnarb: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Nodnarb: [qb]That said, in my experience even simply calling AE "African"---without using any color terminology at all---is going to provoke accusations of "Afrocentrism" from certain people. In the end the bias against an African Egypt is still going to be there no matter what vocabulary you use. [/qb][/QUOTE][URL=http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=871498631]This[/URL] is an example of what I'm talking about. I created a mod for the game [i]Civilization VI[/i] that changed the appearance of the Egyptian characters to look more African, and then I uploaded it onto the Steam Workshop while titling it "African Egyptians". Other than the phrase "dark-skinned", I did not use any color terminology at all in my description of the mod---I avoided the term "black" completely. The Steam community [i]still[/i] threw a tantrum about how my mod was "Afrocentric revisionism" and "blackwashing history". It was like the very association of AE with Africa and darker skin was enough to trigger their racist butts. [/QB][/QUOTE]
