I still read some of the usual BS about Egypt in the comments, with Ancient Egyptians being "semites" and the like. When is this going to stop? Maybe when other people classified as "white" like me spread the news that HEY, ancient Egyptians were Africans AND dark-skinned, sometimes VERY dark-skinned (I don't use racial classification terms because I think we need to get rid of the concept of race which is good only for racists).

Some people here say "this is not accurate".
The only precision needed is that the sun's course changes in Egypt but not in equatorial Africa, where it rises and sets at about the same time all year. So the myth is distinctively Egyptian, and based on other myths from central Africa.
Very interesting. I'm not African nor African-American. I'm classified as "white" in the racial classifications my ancestors invented, but I started reflecting on racism (which I didn't already link to what it really is: white supremacy then) when I realized that "people" somehow tried to make us believe that Egypt was not African. This video brings a lot of very interesting and quite simple details to bring to arguments on this topic…
Interesting video. Gives us a different way to think about history.
God created Man and Man returned the favour.
Its crazy how people think that africans could not have possibly came up with knowledge so deep & 1000s of years ahead of its time. Remember, we been here for millions of years.
yo TheRealNews, you're the quietest channel on youtube – what about some compression?

Though Christian story does comes from Africa it did not originate from there. This ancient story, Son/Sun of God dying, sit at the bowels of the earth for 3 days, and born on December 25th, goes back to previous middle-east civilizations [Persian, Mesopotamia, Sumeria, ect. ect.] who acknowledge this same story cam from even far more ancient civilizations predating them; recorded History. But tise gentleman is on point about how it all represents ancient high wisdom of energy flow, from: sun, moon, and stars, that influence the earth and our bodies. What happens at the macro level also happens at the micro level. "As Above, so Below" in ancient words. Or by changing the words and reverse the order, from bottom up, you have, "on Earth, as in Heaven".
aFRICA HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS MONSTROSITY THAT IS CHRISTIANITY, AFRICA IS ON ANOTHER PLATEAU, it is the birthplace of religion itself and not this judaic montheistic bullshit that has the world fallign to pieces at the present moment, Christmas to me is foolish and has become nothing more than a holiday akin to Black Friday, another method to milk the consumer population to buy into the deadly art of materialism that perpetuates and glorifies the misery and instutionalized manipulation of human abilities for coroporate and national profits in the form of modern slavery and these values are not native to African people, our religions never raped mother earth and forced god's children to work in squalor and slavery like conditions in many countries across earth to maintain the economic profits of the 1% that break thebacks of Americans here and poor brown folk abroad. If you truely believe in the ideals of what could be a magnificent event in yearly human affairs, than you would practice what you preach and not fund warfare abroad in regions that have christians aand in fact are the first places Christinianity existed and you wouldnt argue in glamor debates about accepting refugees in a war you neoconistic warhawks drooled to create in the first place, no thes values are not African this is a consumer warfare and brainwashing of humanmind at the expense of human kind, felis navidad.
Jesus, can white ppl have anything? Also why do blacks always bring up ancient Egypt when talking about Africa? Egyptians aren't black, they are Arab.
thank you so much for this informative and simply explained interview. it forces those of us bound by the chains of imperial and religious Institutions to confront the revisionist history that is fed to us and it forces us to confront our comfort and the violence from which it is derived and we (speaking as a white privileged male) have a personal & collective responsibility to fix (accumulation by dispossession). the ability to have this discussion in the mainstream is revolutionizing the concious development of our social relationship. the power of social media and the ability for the common human being to do their own research at near zero marginal cost, is allowing these truths to bubble up to the surface of our culture with diminishing successful interference from the Conspiracy Community (that is attached to fear) and The Capitalist Class (which is attached to greed) and The Establishment (which is attached to control). These old patterns of human behaviour are losing their justification in this Aquarian Age just as social paradigms changed in the Age of Taurus to Aries, Aries to Pisces. forgive my ignorance of non Kemetic language for these ages.
Great report.
but, I prefer to hear the interviewer asking the questions as I keep my phone in my pocket during interviews js
