Question: Why is the africentric philosophy stealing ethiopian history !?
Seriously, they are claiming many of ethiopia's historic figures like Henoch (enoch) and the Ethiopian pharohs of egypt and king David and solomon and queen sheba! (just look at the illustrations in the african hertage bible) and when I say 'claim' I don't mean just saying that these people were indeed black, but they go as far as to say that these legendary people resembled an african american or a west african and NOT and Ethiopian!.

Ethiopia does have one of the world's oldest cultures!. The Nubians were on the scene at the time of the Pharoahs, definitely interacted with ancient Egypt!. I believe Queen Sheba was Ethiopian!.

It doesn't really matter how people are physically portrayed: Dark or light skin!. Roundish West African facial features, or narrower East African features!. Ethnologists track culture primarily by language and social-religious practices!.

It seems reasonable that Afro-centrists would be proud of the great Ethiopian civilization!. Ethiopia is African!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

There are racists in America that consider African to mean Negroes and some like Jessie Jackson belong in the 18th century with his focus on purely the amount of melanin in the skin!. Ethiopians are shown to have closer ties to Caucasians which shows how stupid the ideas of race is!. You have poverty pimps like Jackson and other racist politicians trying to keep alive the notion of a couple of genes making a person a particular race!. That is where it comes from, ignorant people with ignorant ideas!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
