It's beyond weird how some African Americans are not just trying to claim egyptian culture, but also strip egyptians the rightful owners from it!
I seriously don't understand how someone who read a few paragraphs on the internet can be this delusional. https://twitter.com/nuheezy/status/1357017496117792769
They can:
-Go to Egypt and have a look at the thousands of statues/walls we got to just get a clue.
-Ask historians not YouTube historians on what Egypt's history is actually like.
-Read a book or two.
-Take a DNA test
Or listen to Egyptians for a shortcut!
Easy don't you think?!
I used to think those who call it racism/islamophobic a bit extreme, but maybe it is!
They think cause we use the Arabic language /have Arabic names/have a Muslim population that we severed all our connections to our roots.
They have no clue what our customs are. What survived!
We are different from any Arabic/Muslim nation by exactly being Egyptian, by those traditions/traits even languages that we kept from our ancestors.
The Egyptian Arabic Dialect is so different from traditional Arabic cause of the usage of ancient Egyptian words/idioms in it.
Try translating egyptian Arabic by Google here and you'll get gibberish.
Try it for laughs!

We still follow Egyptian calendars, celebrate Egyptian festivals that are blatantly heretic in an Islamic/catholic view. Yet it's viewed as Egyptian regardless.
Would colonizers do that?
We're not a nation of one skin color, features, dialects. We obviously can't be for a nation with thousands of years of history!
Of course some have other blood in their DNA, but that doesn't make us any less Egyptians.
And it's all backed up by data; scientific, researched.
I mean West/central African countries have been colonized for years and somehow they get to claim their culture and DNA, BUT somehow Egyptians/North African can't do the same!
That's crazy to think about!
They keep spewing lies disregarding that we have recorded all our history!
The only thing the Arab invasion did was turning us into Muslims& by time adapting the Arabic lang.
Cause that's what their whole quest was about!!
If you think Egyptians(5-6 millions) got exterminated, don't you think there would be records of such a catastrophe, anywhere?!!
I can go on& on disputing their claims if I thought they're willing to listen& argue about facts
There're many great people on here doing just that, and only getting hate/threats in return
Insane to be subjected to that for just talking about YOUR history! https://twitter.com/ThePanRamesside/status/1313555921835098112?s=19
