Relax...you don't know what you're talking about. Enslaving and selling are two different things. Second, the rabbit hole is much deeper than that. Egyptians did enslave Europeans first...why do you keep arguing what you plainly know little about?Comment

Maybe you want to choose to remain ignorant but you're wrong. And this is now accepted so you need to get out of that thinking. Read Professor Ivan Sertima of Rutgers University has a fantastic book about this and there's much more. Chiek Anta Diop, etc. Not to mention all the visual proof. I don't understand why you don't want to accept fact. You can't change it.
Right....

Van Sertima has been criticized by academics for making ill-founded Afrocentric claims. A lengthy 1997 Journal of Current Anthropology article criticized in detail many elements of Van Sertima's 1976 book They Came Before Columbus.[2] The book had not earlier received a thorough professional academic review. They stated that in claiming African origins for prehistoric Olmec culture (in present-day Mexico), Van Sertima had ignored the work of Central American researchers. They stated no evidence of a prehistoric African influence or presence had been found in controlled archeological excavations in the New World. The reviewers also wrote that Olmec stone heads only superficially appear to be African and did not resemble the Nubian populations which Van Sertima claimed as their originators. They ruled as "fallacious" his claims for the diffusion of pyramid building and mummification. In addition, they accused Van Sertima's cultural outlook of being disparaging to Native American achievements. Van Sertima has sparred with some of his critics, but he did not respond to the 1997 Journal of Current Anthropology criticism.[3]
In a New York Times 1977 review of Van Sertima works, British scholar Glyn Daniel called Van Sertima's work "ignorant rubbish”, concluding that the writings of Van Sertima (and Barry Fell, whom he was also reviewing) “give us badly argued theories based on fantasies.”[4]. Dean R. Snow, a professor of anthropology, in 1981 wrote that Van Sertima "uses the now familiar technique of stringing together bits of carefully selected evidence, each surgically removed from the context that would give it a rational explanation." He goes on, "The findings of professional archaeologists and physical anthropologists are misrepresented so that they seem to support the [Van Sertima] hypothesis."
I just realized your a African. Referring a African professor who's making false claims as proof.

What I find curious is that your way of research is Wikipedia. Meaning...you don't research anything. There are plenty of books on the topic, not to mention plenty who have refuted what you quoted in Wiki. but you're not interested in research. You're really not.Comment

omg.....
I'm sorry, so to your understanding Negroids were just as advanced society (from 13th century onward) as Europeans during the Rennaisance era? My god, that is a astonishing claim!
Why? Because they were primitive until, ummm let me guess..... NOW?Comment
