Amazing

Only mistake i keep on seeing is that Egypt was first. Noooooo. Nubia gave birth to Egypt. Similar to UK-USA

There’s evidence of that, for one, when the 25th dynasty is ever mentioned it’s said that they returned the culture to its original religion. How’s does another region invade another and return to a tradition belief and not force their beliefs?

[@thefonzies6895]

​@@jjw56 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. The Nubian PHAROH that supposedly invaded said he left the history of Eygpt better than it was when Eygptians was running doesn't sound no damn invasion sounds like an alliance against another group

No civilization begins In earlier Egypt you have been misinformed by Afrocentric pseudo history

As a black man it's kind of weird to hear white people talk me about African history Priceless artifacts

Kind of reminds me of Black Panther 1..the museum scene 😂.

I like the last question when she asks why are the Nubians giving the Egyptians children. And then she mumbles out a answer for everything except for the children.😂

The feminist stuff threw it off

[@bushwacka5187]

It's a prerequisite now, you have to throw some feminist stuff into the mix. Especially when talking about history in public.

@@neverhungryagain2187 It's true lol. If you can throw in some queer stuff too, even better.
