I haven't been here for awhile, but my research continues. There is still a lot of contradictory information out there and I'm trying to process as much of it as I can.
One thing I have learned is that the ancient Egyptians were not a racist people--in fact no one was in the ancient times. It appears around 1820, a few prominent men researching archeology in the Middle East decided to begin the race issue--a nonissue (even with slavery and slave trade).
For the people of color of Africa--this was the beginning of the end (in my opinion)--and, of course, Nubia and its history became a non-history.
It's too bad we allow racism even today to color our perceptions.
