Really? What about these people:

Berbers are the indigenous ethnic group of North Africa west of the Nile Valley. They are continuously distributed from the Atlantic to the Siwa oasis, in Egypt, and from the Mediterranean to the Niger River. Historically they spoke the Berber language or varieties of it, which together form a branch of the Afro-Asiatic linguistic family. Today, varieties of Maghrebi colloquial Arabic are spoken by a large portion of Berbers besides the Berber language itself. Foreign languages like French are used by the educated in Morocco, Tunisia and Algeria. Spanish is also known by some Berbers in Morocco and in the annexed Western Sahara and Italian in Libya. This presence of European languages was due to Europe's occupation and colonization of the Berber world. Today, most Berber-speaking people live in Morocco and Algeria, smaller Berber-speaking populations are scattered throughout Tunisia, Libya, Mauritania, Mali and Niger, as well as various diasporas living in Europe.[1][2]

Now google images of Berbers and note they are considered indigenous African ethnic group . You will be suprised. LOL

Why do you guys spew so much nonsense? Do you think it helps to change public perception of your group? It makes you look like hacks and charlatans. LOL

Compare this:

UNESCO convened the "Symposium on the Peopling of Ancient Egypt and the Deciphering of the Meroitic Script" in Cairo in 1974. At that forum the "Black Egyptian" theory was rejected by 90% of delegates,[130][131] and the symposium concluded that Ancient Egyptians were much the same as modern Egyptians.

and this:

Tariq Nasheed (b.1974) (sometimes nicknamed Tariq Elite,[1] King Flex,[2] K-Flex,[3] ) is a controversial[4][5] author, documentary film producer, media personality, Internet radio host, relationship expert,[6] and social commentator, focusing on the psychology of dating and African-American social history.[1][4][7]

You see a difference between a UNESCO conference of scientists and intellectual barf by relationship expert known as k-flex? Does he have a high school diploma? LOL

Why are you people so gullible? This quack sold a book on relationships and now a DVD on the subject of Black Egypt LOL You'll pay money to anybody who comes along.
What's next? His book on Secrets of youth? LOL You'll buy that it, too, won't you? LOL

This is from the Egyptian scientist:

When pressed on the issue by American activists in September 2007, the current Secretary General of the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities, Dr. Zahi Hawass stated that "Tutankhamun was not black, and the portrayal of ancient Egyptian civilization as black has no element of truth to it;" Hawass further observed that "[Ancient] Egyptians are not Arabs and are not Africans despite the fact that Egypt is in Africa."


You guys are the worst perpetrators of racial stereotypes yourselves LOL
Yep Egyptians are not Africans they just lived on Africa yeah ok. Also Black as a race is describing to groups of people.

Egyptians self-identifying as black? For Arabs being black is worse than death: when Louis Gossett Jr., a black actor, played the part of President Sadat in a US tv serial it was considered an insult to Egypt.

Don't tell Egyptians they are black. They may kill you.
