So are your really denying that Greek philosophers traveled to Africa to learn from Africans? I cant do this with you anymore.
Because you have nothing. Nothing except propaganda and misinformation.

Actually I have quotes from those philosophers themselves. You may want to look them up. A scholarly scholar such as yourself should have experienced this knowledge in your sophomore year in college. Are you lying about being a scholar?
I'm curious, Asclepis...I assume you're talking about the Egyptians here? Or perhaps the Carthaginians? While it is true that they both existed on the African continent they are both more Mediterranean influenced than the continent of Africa itself. Great civilizations at that time grew up because they occupied trade routes or important waterways. I think you'd be hard pressed to find any civilizations in Africa that were removed from the Mediterranean or the Nile river valley that the Greeks philosophers were clamoring to learn from.
This is how you can tell a poser from a real scholar. A real scholar would not get angry. Your probably destroying your keyboard in anger right about now!

No, I'm laughing at the moron who thinks he knows something and yet cannot defend his position.
According to your link, it says Sam stole the idea of a comb from his father.
A white guy invented the cotton gin
According to your link, it says Sam stole the idea of a comb from his father.
History also shows that since time immemorial, in India, there was a device that was specialized in removing seed from long staple cottons.
Whitney's device was different. He utilized pulleys, etc. This doesn't look like a "comb" to me, and in fact, it utilizes a brush roller, and not a comb which is the claim in your interesting article:
Whitney's Cotton Gin - patented in 1793.

Thats right he mechanized something the slaves had been using and took credit for the entire concept. If there was an prior invention in India why is Eli credited with inventing it? A link to that Indian one would be a nice touch. Sounds interesting.

They say something completely wrong. You prove them wrong. Then they nit pic the point that proved them wrong. Get proven wrong again...wash and repeat

I'm really glad you pointed that out. I was hoping Rabbi would have the wit to come up with it. That assumption is false. Aristotle himself said the Egyptians were Black. To go back even further the Nubian Empires preceded the Egyptian ones and laid the foundation for the Egyptian empire.

I dont need to defend anything though. Youre the one saying the Greek philosophers didnt travel to Africa to learn at the feet of Africans. I know history has been altered but I thought that at the very least was common knowledge. What are they teaching you these days in that scholarly environment you say you stay in?
