You are going to amazing lengths in this thread to back up what is essentially Afrocentrism.

You're using geography as a club, are refusing to aknowledge your own biases, and on top of everything else, are putting words in people's mouths.

The AE are far more influential in the Mediterranean cultures than in those of Southern Africa. That claim you dismiss because I used geographical markers. I suspect if I used time markers, as Roxana did, you'd dismiss them from me, too.

The fact, uncomfortable as it may be, is that there are people who believe that the modern American of African Descent is identical to the AE. And the reasoning seems to be that since Egypt is in Africa, therefore they are all Egyptians.

Now, why they dismiss the fabulously rich & varied cultures present in the rest of Africa is a mystery. But they do.

And the program which restyled Nefertiti as Tyra Banks panders to this belief system.
