Replying to posts on this horrific genocide with remarks like "the Palestinian collective is too often aligned with the Eurocentric zeitgeist"
is unconscionable. What relevance does this have to the genocide. N=O=N-E!!!
Further, It is a false narrative. I tried to explain it in my reply to your previous similar claims, but it fell on deaf ears, as did gm's thoughtful post. Still, you continue making this false narrative today.

"TheOne has been keen to ensure the fallacious narrative of Blacks only being brought into the Arab lands as slaves rather than being the actual progenitors of Sumer/Mesopotamia is well explicated."
THAT'S NOT TRUE! THAT'S BLATANTLY NOT TRUE! AND INSULTS THE HISTORY OF MY POSTS ON THIS BOARD! WOW..
Before Theone came on this board I was the one criticizing the belief that in some areas of the so-called Middle East, the black presence was due to the Arab slave trade instead of them being native to places like Iraq. So what's this about?
You've always shared your concern over people erasing Black history, but here you are erasing my history on this LLC Board. That's very insulting!
I specifically used to quote the research of Dr Ben, Dr Clarke, Dr Ivan Van Sertima, Prof Molefi Kete Asante, Chancellor Williams, etc., before Theone had a presence on this board. It's all there, just check my history. Unbelievable!
LOL.. how ironic is it that I use to remind Mr TheOne about the Black presence in ancient India, China, Syria, etc., when he'd post images of black folks from around the world, but now he's getting the credit. This is crazy!
When Israel started bombing areas in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and lately Yemen, I was the one to accuse them of destroying relics of ancient Black civilizations, quoting UNESCO etc.
RIGHT NOW, AS WE SPEAK, there's an effort to protect & save ancient artifacts in Gaza from Israel's constant bombardment. And guess what? These ancient artifacts go back to ancient times when Africans had a presence in the area.
Les, I have no idea what's currently influencing or driving your approach to whats taking place in Palestine and the ongoing genocide of a people, but please don't diminish my contributions to this board. You are being very unfair!
Plus, whatever issues you have with Arab/Palestinian erasure of Kemetic civilization, should not be a reason to understate modern Palestinian suffering. This is repugnant and repulsive on all levels. One humanity!
Stokely Carmichael, Malcolm X, bell hooks, George Jackson, Muhammad Ali, Huey Newton, Toni MOrrison, James Baldwin etc--RIP, must be spinning in their graves knowing the level of awareness among us regarding foreign affairs and international solidarity. Very sad.
Once again, my posting history here predates Mr TheOne's presence on this board. You may choose to deliberately misrepresent its content, but it speaks for itself. Shameful!
.. Mr TheOne must be laughing his butt off, knowing what he knows, and how successful he's been. Lawwwd, we're such an easy people!
Big props Mr TheOne!
