Egyptians aren't Black

Months ago, there was an important issue which is black lives matter. The world joined hands to give them their rights to live because they are human beings.

And I still call it out Black lives matter but what I'll talk about is not to all the black because a lot stand with us in this.

My next words do not count as racism, and if you count a skin color as racism, then you're racist.

I’m a student at the Department of Greek and Roman Archeology, First thing I learned in lectures is ancient Egypt's name is Kemet; Kemet, kmt or km.t means "black lands” Which is accustomed to the lands of the Nile, the fertile soil, and not the color of skin or race.

The Twenty-fifth Dynasty, which is the only black family that ruled Egypt, "the kings of Kush," but they were not from the country or its people, they were occupiers who invaded the country.

Until the twenty-sixth family came, This dynasty traced its origins to the Twenty-fourth Dynasty. Psamtik I was probably a descendant of Bakenranef.

About the Netflix documentary, Queen Cleopatra was never black, Cleopatra of Macedonia, Egyptian by birth, Cleopatra as essentially of Macedonian Greek ancestry with some Persian and Sogdian Iranian ancestry. So she similar looks to the Greek girls now.

A member of the Ptolemaic dynasty, she was a descendant of its founder Ptolemy I Soter, a Macedonian Greek general and companion of Alexander the Great. Although her first language was Koine Greek, she was the only Ptolemaic ruler to learn and use the Egyptian language.

You won't steal our history as you did before to Palestine but one day we will take it back and Palestine will be free.

We are under intellectual invasion. Our civilization cannot be stolen. Our Egyptian civilization is our identity.

We are the descendants of the Pharaohs. We are the owners of the civilization and the land.
