So it turns out that the "normal" way of seeing history is full of racist propaganda. Many people from the ancient world, such as ancient Egyptians, ancient Greek philosophers, the virgin Mary, Jesus Christ, the people who brought Europe out of the dark ages and taught them how to wash hands and not be dirty, and many others were black or used the intellectual work of black people. By not teaching this reality, schools are perpetuating racism and white supremacy. People need to be taught that what we today associate with "white civilization" is in fact the work of black people. Every day whites who stole the ideas of blacks, such as Elvis Presley, are glorified. We put slave-owners on our money. Our discourse about the past is owned by the white man, but is built on the stolen labor and land of people of color.
However if we could change our discourse it could lead to black people finally getting the recognition they deserve, and stop the whites from stealing everything and taking all the credit. So are you Afro-centric or racist?
Mod edit: changed the poll options.
