Ignoring is one thing. Intentionally lying about it and re-writing it is a completely different sin. And we're already repeating our history: "Tough times create tough men. Strong men create easy times. Easy times create weak men. Weak men create tough times." Hippies, Hipsters, Woke culture, Veganism, LGBT+++ and other such ideologies have already created weak men and we're currently going through last years of "easy times". The cycle is about to repeat itself once again.

Now, they are being made example by being proxy warred by the deep state.
I am a black African from Sub-Saharan Africa. It's essential to acknowledge that the diverse and rich history of our continent cannot be oversimplified or altered to correct historical wrongs towards black people. Such attempts overlook the need for genuine understanding and appreciation of our unique cultural and historical experiences. As black Africans, our sense of importance and identity does not hinge on these revisions. It is crucial to let history stand as it is, recognizing its complexities and truths, rather than reshaping it for superficial rectification.
Replacement theory. Marxist's to erase the past and replace it with their own. Soon it'll be a Mandela effect they were Greek but in reality they're bleck. Tell that to the American Democrats
The reality is most Black Africans can only live on such revisions otherwise they would have to face that they were the driving force in the wrongdoing against Black Africans.
So would you say everything in the western world was white....... lol so tell me about Roman Empires Septimius severus was the biggest influencer of roman empire. He was black
The thing that preplexes me the most about woke films, is that there's many subsaharan historical figures that would make for great movies like Mansa Musa. The subsaharans also have many folk tales that would make for intriguing cinema.
its deliberately done by our government its meant to divide us and keep us fighting amongst ourselves while they control us, even black people are waking up slowly and realise they are being used
The Songhai Empire was incredible. One of the wealthiest people in all of Africa... Yet they want to claim Cleopatra as black, when we have DNA of her family. 🙄
Yes. That is how you rewrite history. If people belive that blcks were in charge for the entire history of man, it is easier to point at asins as anomaly and tax white man to fight it.
This is the most important point when it comes to this topic. Many people will say it's only a TV show/film and thus it doesn't matter what ethnicity the actors are. However, this is where many people's "knowledge" of history comes from so it's important for the portrayal to be as accurately as possible. What we see now from the likes of Netflix is pure propaganda.
It would have to be Netflix, the meme is officially confirmed. What next Eddie Murphy playing the Duke of Wellington? This should annoy the Tunisian people, just like the Egyptians were offended by Cleopatra.

This exact same nonsense is where the "black washing" comes from.
It used to be that at any time you could turn on the History Channel and there'd be a 75% chance they'd be talking about Nazis. Then it became a "reality tv" channel with the most historical thing to be found is about ancient aliens.
Not a single ethnic group of Sub-Saharan Africa developed writing, mathematics, or even the wheel before Caucasians introduced these and many other foundational components of civilized society. Without written records there cannot be any historical tales of black heroic figures of antiquity.

When I was dating my wife twenty five years ago I loved the history channel. I jokingly called it "all hitler all the time" and my wife would joke that the next show was going to be on "hitlers cable guy or hitlers dog handler" As a joke on "Hitlers Generals, Hitlers Doctors, Hitlers Mentors, Hitlers Bankers" And the endless crap like that they did at the time. But I could never imagine a time where everything they do now is Black, Black, Black. Next we will get told Some Roman Cesear was black. How the Picts tribes were black....they just hid it under their Blue war paint. Its getting crazy out there.

If Severus had been black, then seeing a dark-skinned man would not have bothered him.

As a Lebanese guy, with 93% of my blood tracing back to Iron Age Phoenician with little foreign influence in me. It's a shame to see hollywood portray Hannibal, a guy from the city of Tyre which I came from on my mother's side (She's a Syriac Orthodox Christian from Tyre.) as a sub-saharan person who has absolutely nothing to do with the Afroasiatic family let alone the Semitic family or Bane Tsur (Tyre) 𐤁𐤍𐤉 𐤑𐤓, hell if they wanted to bring a black actor they should've atleast brought a Black Semite (Like an Ethiopian or something.) But they straight up went with tyrone from chicago who descends from the congo. Btw, this is like getting a chinese actor to play as an indian king (because boohoo they're both part of the same continent of Asia!) Funnier part, Hannibal was a person that descended from Barca, a guy who accompanied Dido from Tyre, the city I come from to north Africa, to build the new city also known as Qart Hadasht or 𐤒𐤓𐤕 𐤇𐤃𐤔𐤕. So if anything, Hannibal was not even AFRICAN let alone Black. Hannibal was a Phoenician Semite (Arguably one of the lightest Semitic groups you could pick out, for example I have pure pale white skin with semitic curly ash brown hair and amber eyes, and an aquiline nose. I'm positive I have 0 Indo-European in me, I'm native to Lebanon, and 100% positive i have no foreign dna.) So if anything, they should've atleast casted someone from tunisia, lebanon, or like any Arab and I'd be fine with that. But the problem is that they are bringing someone who is completely unrelated with the Semitic people, let alone the afro asiatic people; with 0 phenotypic relation to Semitic People (We have slimmer longer noses than them, and a caucasoid skull, and come in all colors. Whilst they come usually black, with wide flat noses, and a sub-saharan skull.) Hell it was even stated that the ancient Phoenicians and ancient Hebrews could not even be told apart from Greeks and Romans phenotypically speaking, because we're all CAUCASIAN and Mediterranean. Hollywood cannot put the fact that Caucasians and Non-Caucasians are more different to each other than caucasians are to one another. Side note: sorry for my bad English, not my native language eitherway. Edit: After finishing this video, I saw that there's many wrongs here. First of all, barca was not seen as an outsider by the senate, but was seen as too vengeful and too daring by the senate, hence why they weren't fond of him. Second of all, the Barcas did not come from greece; it is a clear semitic surname referring to lightning "Baraq" "𐤁𐤓𐤒," Hannibal was a Semite, he was an elite of the carthaginian senate and the carthaginian elites rarely intermixed with non-phoenicians. Saying the Barcids are berber or whatever other race is like saying the Ptolemaic Dynasty were Egyptian and not Macedonian greek.
As a Tunisian, we all Agree & know ! Hannibal, Dido and Carthage was founded by Phoenicia aka Lebanon ❤🎉 ! Even native people aka berbers aren’t black ! 😮
The Romans themselves said he was dark skinned, but not like an African so I understand if those realities are challenging for you to understand and accept is not trying to spread an agenda. They’re being dumb, they should’ve cast a mixed person or a light brown person even in the history channel version of Hannibal. He was clearly mixed. He wasn’t dark and he wasn’t white like it should be.
You guys would say it was black washing if they made the majority of the population of South Africa black in his story... you still haven't told me when did the black people conquer Mauritania if it was once White. They tried to claim that they are just Arab and not black today but Publications like Britannica still acknowledge them as black moors😅😅😅 70-80 percent of the population is black of Sudanese descent which are another black people who claim they are not black Arabs they're just black. I mean people were saying the Moroccan soccer player el-nesyri is not black😂😂😂😂 but that's the Arab culture his mother is even more black than him and obviously mated with somebody who was lighter skinned than her but he's still very dark brown skinned and you guys give him the race of his father's ancestors and not his mother's that's your culture but we don't acknowledge that in the first world😅

I still can't wrap my mind around the fact, that the exact people, who adamantly claim their desire to erase rasicm, continuously produce things, that create resentments between racial groups and perpetuate ideas that inevitably lead to ongoing competition for dominance among racial groups. If they want to reach a "quality depiction of black people" in hollywood, they will need to bring some original stories and characters to the table. And I'm sure, that they can do that, if they are willing to do that. But this way will only lead to more resentments. If only Netflix had some of the strategic geniuses in their ranks.

*IF* the Barca family did in fact come from Cyrene from the Greek City of "Barca" (and had Greek blood) then that absolutely backs the idea that Carthaginian nobles as a whole were threatened and opposed to Hannibal's war efforts. Helps explain how Hannibal was fluent in Greek, Latin, and Phoenician even if the Barca family had been living in Carthage for several decades (if not a couple of hundred years).
The Greeks copied the Phoenician alphabet, the Carthagenians were world-class merchants that were founded by them. Speaking many languages would have been in Barka's skill set.

Im Algerian, there is a YT Channel speaking about the jugurthine wars, which is a series of wars between Jugurtha, a highly regarded Numidian figure in Algerian history and the romans under Gaius Marius, the channel depicted his as black African and I was super pissed about it, Jugurtha is basically viewed as the ancestor of Algerian resistance as well as an inspiration at the same level as emir Abd el Kader al Djazairi or the revolutionaries of 1954.
I remember that video from invicta, I’m from Kabyle and we cherish our Amazigh ancient kings and that was truly a disgrace to depict him as black when we have literal depictions of our ancient kings. Even the Roman’s depicted him as olive skinned like me with features that is the farthest from a sub Saharan.
I love the story of the 2nd Punic war. If done right it would be a top show that could go on for many seasons. Can't believe they screwed it up already
Hannibal was a mauritanian(or numidian, same people really) which is a black country that was conquered by the Arabs after Islam so unless at one point in time white people ruled Mauritania, then he was black. at the end of the day what you guys don't understand is 3/5 of the mauritanian population are Sudanese descendants so the argument you're really having is are Sudanese people black Arabs or are they just Arab and not black at all. this is a real argument in Sudan today
@@ast.george3565 Only presenting geography as an argument does not work in antique Mediterranean history because the cultural fault lines did not follow continents back then. The Mediterranean functioned as a super-highway, so the region where cultural exchange and travel took place was "The Mediterranean" which comprised southern Europe, Northern Africa and Western Asia (Levant). People around the Mediterranean could have very similar heritage independently where around the Mediterranean you took the sample from, so to drive your point home you have to present genetic or colonial evidence alongside a geographic birthplace. Many cities around the Mediterranean sea were Greek or Phoenician colonies for example.
There are olive-skinned Greeks and light-skinned Africans. It's funny Alex didn't have a problem with an Australian playing an Egyptian in Exodus: Gods and Kings. Most of the people in the comments don't care about accuracy. They just hate black people. @@sleepyhyrule6894
@@brainxtc2171 The point is not the actor, but the race swapping of famous historical figures for which historians know pretty well how they looked like and it's ridiculous.
The effort to fight off the blackwashing of history needs to be taken on by those cultures that it seeks to replace. Egypt sued Netflix, every country that is under attack by blackwashing lies needs to defend itself aggressively in a court of law, and the court of public opinion, wherever need be done. Don't stay quiet!
Why did Egypt sue? Can't someone make a film anyway they want? And can an entire country sue? Or did someone representing Egypt sue? So many questions. I understand why Netflix would be used to misrepresent history but can't you make a bullshit film if you want?
can every country that has had someone white washed to. 10 if not 100s of thousands of law suits. you would literally have a handful alot of debatable ones to
egypt has black or black(ish) people ... cleopatra not likely... but there is no reason that some farao's and other elites were not black... actually most likely some were black and 100% black(ish) you still have them in north africa. yes all this crap is dumb indeed..... I'm getting too old for this sh$#t lol Just as a historical fact.... in ancient times... we have no documented cases to show that the skin colour was a big deal... it isn't mentioned anywhere, even when we know that someone was black or blond
Just look at where Carthage was. It was a stones throw from Sicily (i.e. Italy ) and was originally a Phoenician settlement. Sure , Hannibal wasn't a blond Viking, but he sure as hell wasn't a sub Saharan African.
Present day Tunisia is a mixture of arabs, Turks, Italians, Berbers and the descendants of europeans slaves that were sent to north africa by the ottoman (turks) not the same as ancient times
lol, u are a smalThe first Mediterraneans were Kushites according to scientists. The first Arabs were also Kushitic people from north East africa .. the oldest Haplogroup in Europe is the Kushitic marker E1b1b and that comes from Black africa .. Natufians were the oldest bones in the levant and those bones resembled black Africans do u want academic sources and lets debate it sir ??
Why doesn’t he speak about genetic and actual anthropological and biological evidence. Typical Eurocentric cry baby nonsense. We know that were plenty of subsaharans in north Africa during the ancient times as attested by the Greeks and romans. We even know there were blacks in the Roman army ig Saint Maurice of Thebes who’s grave can be found in Switzerland. we have depictions and actually written records. We even have several coins depicting a subsaharan found in northern Italy in sites he was known to have camped in. This is just narrow mined thinking. Why were Europeans this bothered about accurate representation when they were making films about ancient Egypt and pre colonial African civilisations during the 20th century? Classic rubbish go and take a look at the South Africans rugby team today in 500 years you clowns will also claim South Africans are not black
I was told recently by a black friend that his daughter was taught in college that Europeans invented scalping and the only reason the Indians did it was to get us back. He acted like he was educating me.
Wrong. Scalping was a native American practice since the beginning, they also carved out hearts, and more. And no it wasn't taught by the white devil that you so wish was the truth.
To be fair to Netflix they show a lot of Korean and Japanese films and series; not a single false and forced 'diverse' character in them at all. Go East!
It's fascinating how some people distort history with such confidence like this clown in this video. Let's set the record straight. Hannibal was indeed an AFRICAN Amazigh, a native of North Africa just do a simple google search (Native people of Tunisia) they represent only 10% of Tunisia. During his time, there were no Arab invasions those occurred centuries later. Today's Tunisians, while a blend of various peoples, are not predominantly descended from the region's ancient natives. It's important to recognize and respect historical facts rather than rewrite them to fit modern narratives. Similarly, figures like Moses, Jesus, Solomon, and the Queen of Sheba are often misrepresented when they where all "black" if you want to use that term. Perhaps it's time for some to spend more time in the library and less time spreading misinformation on your channel.
@@TopReplica23wtf are you talking about? Modern Tunisians are the direct descendants of the Amazigh population in that region with some input from the other ethnic or cultural groups that conquered them. They are culturally mostly post-Islam Arabic with a significant amazigh cultural substratum. That’s pretty much what it is…
These Fake replies from your own friends😂😂😂😂. Ive been there the statues and Artwork are all black. you big Dummy. your ancestors are black as well just 2 or 3 gens back. Stop it dude
I mean, playing these roles pays highly well, and I doubt Denzel is actually going to take any of that stuff they are going to portray seriously and is only in it because they had him at the paycheck at around 10 million.
imagine face of mediterranians, arabs ,sephardic jews ,south africans and madagascar people when they said that everyone whos from africa is BLACK by default🤦♂🤣
All ancient historians described the northern Africans as dark-skinned Procope de Césarée & Herodotus all described them as dark-skinned people. I'm going to repeat the alleles for white skin were not in Africa 5,000 years ago all North Africans were dark-skinned according to science.
Not really considering white people did exactly what God warned not to in exodus 20:4-5. Oh and they did exactly what was said not to do in Joshua 10:13. The book of jasher which is mentioned in that verse somehow is not scripture. Your right historical rewriting is very grave. And it will have grave consequences.
Denzel is a great actor but gosh, this is ridiculous. They claim that they're all about fairness, equity, and inclusion while actively re-writing European, Greek, Eygptian, and more folk tales and historical figures as black. It's such a lazy and disgusting approach. There's a reason the first Black Panther movie worked and Cleopatra isn't
even the current ones say that Cleopatra isn't black. She was Mesopotamian and Greek. There was an interview between some Egyptian guy and a news anchor a few months ago, back when the Cleopatra showrunners were going around and spreading lies @@kafelaroux504
@@umar8558 you control a group of people by stripping them of there identity. Why do you think the facial features of most Egyptian statues are chopped off?
When your current and future population is culturally and ethnically disconnected from a nation’s past you have two options: acknowledge reality and be in conflict, deny reality and change history to fit yours.
Correct, you couldn't have said it any better. The SOB's that have been behind all the blackwashing, forcing the agendas of making the young woke, schools with their sickening sex books, transgenderism, and forcing their beliefs to others has been agenda for a long time, and if you begin to analyze all this, the Vatican and it's churches have always been a sick perverted infested black hole which I honestly believe, their are certain Gay and Lesbian mentalities favoring all this do to all the hate they have and destruction against the typical nuclear family.
Unfortunately for black people from America, slavery broke their historical identification, but instead of seeking their real subsaharan lineage they chose to steal others one. I really feel bad for them to think that reaching at such absurdities is normal, it shows how lost and desperate they are.
as a black african, this is extremely disappointing. i love history and hannibal was one of my favorite historical figures. africa was the arguably the world’s most diverse continent and not all people who or born or originate from africa are black, such as hannibal who was descended from Phoenicians (Greeks). it is important to leave history as it is and not change or reshape it.
Black were the first Europeans; it was not diverse at the time. Canaanites (Blacks) were called Phoenicians by the Greeks, where does such ignorance come from? AI is going to pull back the curtains on lies of history for the last 500ys by the Europeans, and I can't wait... Get ready people, its going to be an eye opener. The things hidden will come to the LIGHT...
What will be next? George Washington turns out to be asian? Ben Franklin turns out to be eskimo, and Tom Jefferson turns out to be brazilian. No offense to any race.
