[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tyrannohotep: [QB] You know, I would have thought the whole insistence on a non-African AE (or at least a desire not to lump AE together with "black" people) wouldn't have even come about if there weren't individuals like de Volney and Bruce pointing out that AE were African in the first place. In order to deny certain facts, you need people pointing out those facts' existence to begin with. So I can't fathom why anyone would argue that [i]all[/i] European thinkers would be involved in the effort to de-Africanize (or de-blacken) AE, unless they wanted to portray all white people (or at least all whites at that time) as inherently evil racists. There are always going to be exceptions to the rule. But then, I do get the sense that quite a number of people here on ES are black separatists who don't trust white people in general, even if some of them are more covert about it than Mike or Narmerthoth. I wonder if there's a correlation between the "pan-African" politics that motivate a lot of posters here with black separatist sentiments? Because the idea that all Africans form a single monophyletic clade sounds like something a black separatist would embrace. [/QB][/QUOTE]
