On another note, Rupert Murdoch is an Australian AND a billionaire. He prolly hasn't had a conversation with a Black person not named Oprah in decades.
Funny as the original Australians were not white but I bet he thinks whites are original Australians -
Some ? that tripped me out and really opened my eyes to how ingrained white supremacy and eurocentricism is in this world is the fact that we are subtly indoctrinated with it starting in Pre-school and kindergarten. Think of a Globe or world map and how it looks:
There's absolutely NO scientific basis for Europe to be on top of the map. There is no up or down in Space. When astronaughts got to space and looked at Earth for the first time and took pictures, this is what they saw:
The world with AFRICA on top. Before NASA released this to the public they flipped it so that Europe was on top, as is traditional orientation of the world. That subtle bit right there demonstrates how deep it is.
Literally Never thought about it this way before..

well dont you think its understandable that europeans put europe at the center of the world if they came from there?
wouldnt chinese or indians do the same?
and how would you know that the space picture was flipped before being released to the public? -
Michael Jackson got it right w his cast for Remember the Time.
Wonder if he was alive, would he be able to fund a movie that gives a true, historical look to what Egypt actually was. -

Hence Eurocentricism ingrained in us beginning in Kindergarten and Pre-School. The Chinese and Indians use the same map as the rest of the world (the map with North as up and Europe on top).and how would you know that the space picture was flipped before being released to the public?(The true camera image is upside-down by earthly standards, showing the South Pole at the top of the globe, because the camera was held by a weightless man who didn't know down from up. Most reproductions invert it to align with our expectations.)

No you wrong. Southern cali is San Diego/LA...south of the bay. -

It will show how weak racism truly is and how it is irrational.
Egyptians weren't the only / greatest African Empire tho, btw; Just the one we can recognize most readily.
Cosign, You never, ever, ever, hear mention of the Mali empire, or Kingdom of Ghana, etc unless you're taking a college world history course that isn't ? .
I do all the time *shrug* or anyone who watched hidden colors series -
The funny thing is Rupert Murdoch is Australian and he probably can't wrap his fat, bloated racist head around the fact that just under 400 years ago if you were Australian that would mean you were black and not a devilish european ? cracka.

'Star Wars' Star John Boyega to Haters: "Get Used to It"
The Hollywood Reporter

'Star Wars' Star John Boyega to Haters: "Get Used to It"John Boyega in The Force Awakens teaser
By Ryan Gajewski
Star Wars: The Force Awakens star John Boyega has posted a message directed at both fans and critics.
Boyega, 22, whose scene in the film’s teaser trailer led to some online criticism of a black Stormtrooper, appeared to address those comments on his Instagram page Saturday.
Watch the teaser:

"To whom it may concern … Get used to it," he wrote. After that sentence, he included a smiley-face emoticon.
Boyega, who starred in 2011’s Attack the Block, also thanked fans for their positive feedback. “Thank you for all the love and support,” Boyega’s message read. “I’m in the movie, but as a Star Wars fan, I’m very excited.”

This is not the first time that a film’s casting has led to racially charged remarks from fans. When the cast of the first Hunger Games film was revealed, there was online chatter about the character Rue being played by a black actress. More recently, Rupert Murdoch defended the all-white cast of Exodus: Gods and Kings, which features Egyptian characters.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens stars Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Oscar Isaac and Adam Driver and hits theaters Dec. 15, 2015.

This the scene they're talking about in Hidden Colors -
as the white people say, "what a ? bag"
-
? ridiculous. Its like making a movie about the ancient ming dynasty and using an all jewish cast or making a movie about king arthur and using an all asian cast. Imagine what white ppl would say if they made a movie about michael angelo and jet lei was cast as the lead actor. Lol at these devils and their stupidity
-
whites are on blogs defending what he said. Theres whites among us that think Europeans were actually african kings and Queens and the only role we had in our on continent was as of slaves and servants. Their only proof is that Europeans visited Egypt (so that must mean they ruled over all of Egypt)

"Egyptians were far from black, they treated blacks as slaves"
first of all you just kind of admitted there were black Egyptians if there were Egyptian black slaves....Egyptians cant be "far from black" and have black Egyptian slaves at the same time...its like saying Americans are far from black but they had black slaves.
also slavery in ancient world wasnt dependent upon skin color....black wasnt a thing or a concept in ancient Africa
and how do these cacs just ignore Kush and the paintings and how they depict themselves in drawings and sculptures?
these ? actually think they lived in the desert with pale skin -

Not only were they in the desert, but they barely wore any clothes. That sure is a special breed of white, considering that I've seen caucs skin boil in a t shirt and pants in weather that is nothing Like the sahara lol. -
I remember being in Okinawa and it was like 75 degrees out and the white folk were having sun burns like crazy. I heard in Baghdad they were burning the ? up and having spots all over.

whites arrent ? thats why they have to lie about history. The deeper you dig in history the blacker it gets. We are the supreme race

Will Smith attempted to fund a movie about an Egyptian Pharaoh featuring a predominantly black cast and was shut down. Its just our reality, we live in the helm of white zion, the media and all entertainment is for them

That's crazy cuz Will Smith didn't have a problem funding after Earth
