"Afrocentric Propaganda",
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Splendor of Ancient Egypt [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This very brief (22 minutes) video asserts that ancient Egyptian civilization was a product of black Africa; that the classical civilization of Greece, from which European civilization originates, was a product of Egypt; and that American civilization is thus ultimately the product of black Africa. This Afrocentrist propaganda may swell the heads of some inner-city high school students, but it is based on the same shoddy "scholarship" that underlies such discredited works as Martin Bernal's "Black Athena," nicely refuted by classicist Mary Lekowitz in "Not Out of Africa." The black narrator,who expertise is not credited, cites no recognized Egyptological authority for any of the (mis)information which is so hastily presented. The price (...) would be high for any video, but for one as short and as poorly done as this one, it is far from a bargain.
