So Feb 17th they will be revealing King Tut's DNA results

Honestly, does it really matter in 2010 what color King Tut was?

So what if he was Black?

So what if he was White?

So what if he was neither?

i mostly recall them all getting labeled as "Mongoloids" because it's not the most endearing of terms

LOL yeah, who wants to be a Mongoloid?

I'd agree if this was a universal belief. Why not make Jesus an Asian man then since it doesnt matter? Lets make Malcolm X Mexican when we depict him? Why is that "it doesnt matter what his race is" is only said when it's black people involved. Any other race and we make damn sure we got the right color.

Why does it not matter what the race is when they're describing some black guy that got arrested on TV? They make sure the world sees a black mans face. But when it's positive we supposed to be on some heal the world shit. Fuck that...

I don't know any Asians who want to Jesus to be depicted as Asian (because it probably doesn't matter to them).
And I damn sure don't know any Mexicans who want to depict Malcolm X as such (that is downright stupid since we definitely know he was Black).

If some guy was arrested and he was Black, I have said the same thing, why does it matter!

But those 3 things are of a different context than trying to find out a dead persons race.......

I'm really just trying to figure out what kind of positives are to be gained by finding out that a pharaoh who died 3,333 years ago is a certain color?

well, in fairness, while the race of Jesus gets disputed, no one disputes the ethnic background of Malcolm X

 

[BOSS KTULU]

Malcolm X was Irish, obviously.

The Black Irish don't have red hair.
