Nope, that's white people trying to revise history, yet again.

"Several million years ago, our ancestors’ skin tone would not have been obvious. That’s because early hominins were almost certainly cloaked in dark fur. But beneath the body hair, they probably had pale skin based on the fact that our evolutionary cousins, chimpanzees and gorillas, have light skin under dark fur today.
Our ancestors eventually lost this fur and gained pigment in their skin. Although the exact timing and causes are debated, many researchers agree that when humans lost their fur, it helped us stay cool while foraging as upright-walking bipeds in the sunny, open habitats of equatorial Africa. The tradeoff, however, was bare skin that was exposed to intense, year-round UV rays. In this context — roughly 1 to 2 million years ago — darker skin was likely better to protect folate stores."

"People living in northern latitudes often don’t get enough UV to synthesize vitamin D in their skin so natural selection has favored two genetic solutions to that problem—evolving pale skin that absorbs UV more efficiently or favoring lactose tolerance to be able to digest the sugars and vitamin D naturally found in milk"

Why Did Darker and Lighter Human Skin Colors Evolve?
Humanity’s color gradient probably has little to do with sunburn.

No google here, no wiki either.
There are laws against Black people, and then there are laws for everyone else. We've had our own, and the law did not protect us, because it isn't meant to do so.
Look all white people understand, is Blood? Then money. The only way this thing is going to change, is if they begin to become extinct, which is happening, albeit too slowly for the rest of the earth that suffers fighting against white supremacy.
White supremacy is the issue, not Black apathy.

So are saying different ethnicities don't say the same generic make-up? What is your POV when it comes to the origins of Homo Sapiens?

you DO realize same and equal are the same thing right?
i didnt say SAME.......EQUAL, or imply the suffering was the same or equal.
you guys seem to like that strawman though.

Homo sapiens is a term that was invented to describe the conditions for which so called humans were found to be in. It isn't accurate. We are not all the same, and deep in the annals of science, they know it. There is a reason why melanin is the deciding factor. Science has been affected by white supremacy. If it ever got out that Black people are the original people on this planet, there'd be anarchy, then throwing the white supremacist system out of wack. There'd be no falsehood to lean upon in regard to superiority. So the message sent is that we are all from the same origin, but we aren't.

Only four pages and this thread offers a master class on the slippage between fact and fiction, objective conditions and ideology. A four-page swamp replete with pseudo science and science fiction.
Here we have assertions that people of African descent are not part of the animal kingdom, not even from earth. Here we have the selective reliance on genetics and, at the same time, the dismissal of science. We have, here, the odd belief that those whom you might rightly describe as “savage” actually have a different genetic makeup that make them animals. Some go so far as to assert that social behaviors (“no rhythm”) is actually indicative of some genetic difference.
I get where this is coming from. Black folks have been pummeled and bludgeoned. Our resources stolen. Our culture appropriated and sold back to us. We demand the right to live and thrive, and we're told 'all lives matter.' But you can acknowledge differences in resources and privileges without trafficking in some part-earthly-part mystical account.
You can acknowledge a legacy of suffering without the ahistorical, non-factual insistence that there exists a genetic difference between racial groups.
I swear, some of yall veer way to close to the alternative-facts discourse of the right. It's almost like, if it weren't for their white supremacy, you'd break bread with them on the questioning of authority, expertise, and science.

True: "Science has been affected by white supremacy."
Political ideology: "If it ever got out that Black people are the original people on this planet, there'd be anarchy."
Those two things are the same, and the latter doesn't follow from your first point.

oh its going to get worse with how acceptable it is to be a Youtube and social media scholar.
see: Kyrie
its far much more easier for them to believe that than believe in our culture and that our culture CAN do it.

The problem is, so many indeed want to be able to make peace with what does not want a peaceful existence with you. There has been no place on this earth where this being has arrived, with their leaving the indigenous people of that land better off than whence they came. No place.
So you can continue hoping, praying to their gods, educating yourself through their view of history, hoping that one day they will see your humanity.
It isn't going to happen. There is a reason why the world is in the state that it is in, and it isn't because Black people have tried to spread Black supremacy around the world.
Think about that.

More bootstrap stuff, 'eh? Booker T was wrong, and you are as well.
Where you are correct is that we CAN do it, only if left alone. However, history proves that they do not want to leave us alone.

The reason why we all agree that modern humans originate in Africa is because Lucy, the oldest human skeleton ever found, was unearthed in Eastern Africa. Science was used to date her skeleton.
Certainly, the story of humanity's beginnings will change if an older skeleton is ever found outside of the African continent. What will some of you do if it happens while you're alive? Deny it?
