Worded extremely well. the real origins of Afro descendant people (west/central Africa) seems to be the biggest insecurity of these types, because for the most part Africa isn’t central to the Bible in the case of Hebrew Israelites so in turn they deny their heritage in favour of a biblical one like the ancient hebrews

Hoteps & Israelites need to read their own history. Understand their own culture.

They literally want to connect to some s*** from when we (afro-descendants in general) didn't even exist as a people!

The Black Americans ones like Kyrie need to read up on Black American history. We have a lot to be proud of. We have cultural traditions, values, holidays, a long history of resistance, etc,. that is being lost because these negros don't want to claim any of it out of shame that is definitely a trauma response. It's sad and pisses me off. The same goes for any other Afro-Descendant that subscribes to that thinking. The fact so many Black Americans didn't know we have an ethnic flag until last year pisses me off.

Love how he specifically says Bible and Christians as if Arab and Muslims ain't done the Africans no harm.

Madina al Fadila used to be the slave market capital of the world!

Franz Fanon wrote about the psychological effects of colonialism on colonized people in Wretched of the Earth. It's not a 1-to-1 comparison but I recommend checking it out if this is a topic of interest

Also hilarious that most of the people ITT clowning Hoteps for having implausible beliefs are Karl Marx stans.

Ottomans were slaving Euros from 1400s

African Moors we’re on ships from 700s pirating hunting for white slaves

There was a African led slave trade of whites for 500+ years 700-1300 in North Africa

Slavery was the norm of the ancient world

Also Hebrew is a African language, all the closest languages to it including Arabic originated in Africa

"A nation is a historically constituted, stable community of people, formed on the basis of a common language, territory, economic life, and psychological make-up manifested in a common culture.

It goes without saying that a nation, like every historical phenomenon, is subject to the law of change, has its history, its beginning and end.

It must be emphasized that none of the above characteristics taken separately is sufficient to define a nation. More than that, it is sufficient for a single one of these characteristics to be lacking and the nation ceases to be a nation."

so the chicano nation in the south west, hawaii, and the black belt south represent the three historical criteria for nations within a nation.

Again, have you taken a look at the self-told origins/creation myths of some of the West African tribes? The Binis, the Yorubas?

Some of them claim Jewish descent or at least cite migration from a region that seems similar. It's been ages since I read them, but you seem to be intent on attributing their fixation with being Israelites to just ignorance like it's a personal issue.

I didn't think so. I remember rolling my eyes at all the lumpenproletariat s***, but found some credence (and real world evidence) about how marginalized cultures try to elevate their cultural identities by tying it to cultures that are historically or intellectually unimpeachable.

Hebrew is not an African language, name another African language that’s similar? The Hebrew alphabet and language is one of the few that is so different to every other language known today. There are a few words that overlap with Arabic due to both being spoken in the Middle East for centuries. But the similarities are like how in several languages you have the word mobile or telephone because these are modern words

Look up the Afroasiatic Urheimat , the homeland for Afroasiatic languages is either Northeast Africa or the African Red Sea coast

Looked it up and it was hypothetical. Also that’s related to east Africa. The people were talking about are primarily descendants of West and Central Africans
