But hasn’t the “Egyptians we’re really black” theory been debunked over and over? Outside of the Kushites ruling for a while the Egyptians looked pretty much like they do today. Why it’s so hard for people to get that I don’t understand
Now personally I follow the whole “judge by content of character” mindset from a Christian perspective and I’ll give anyone a chance but I totally understand how certain attitudes arise. I completely get it now. I may be a very optimistic person but I definitely see where you are coming from.

Why would it being a lie matter to blacks? Do you think they value honesty or something?
Well I certainly do. But like you said for every Thomas Sowell there are a lot more who aren’t. As much as I wish that wasn’t true I’m seeing it.
Yup. It's entirely possible to appreciate the gems, without wanting to get coal on your hands.
