      Good point @Hardwork. I did undergrad at UCLA in Ancient Egyptian Studies in the early 90's. A prominent linguist actually headed that major. This was the hey day time of a cadre of Black scholars putting Egypt in Africa and exploring the implications of that assertion. UCLA was alive with the debates this work generated. The British scholar Martin Bernal (Black Athena) even did a series of presentations at UCLA during this time. The dept head and I had some great conversations. One of the things he said to me during this time, in reference to Obenga's work specifically, was that what was missing in the conversation academically speaking, was a theory and model or "paradigm" that explained the relationships between these African languages, comparable to the Indo-European language paradigm. I think it's a progressive proposal. Someone may be doing that work by now. Of course, ,all research takes institutional access and underwriting. Really good video.Helps us lay people understand how academic models are put together.

    Race is a modern construct. If anything referring to people as "tribes" seems more appropriate and they are referred to as such in the ancient texts. Tribes inter-mixed and shared languages. It seems more appropriate to address things this way. Their were brown people that came from the Caucaus mountains, Iran, India, Middle East, just as their were tribes that were fair with lighter eyes. The swastika is ancient and it is sad that it was appropriated in such a negative light in modern times. These "Race" narratives need to be exposed.

    What an outstanding video, thank you very much for producing and posting this. I understand David Anthony's hesitancy to use the word race, in light of today's and recent history's stigmatism surrounding the use of the word. I disagree though that ancient peoples did not have the same prejudices towards one another based on racial differences. There is a movement within today's academia, placing the majority of blame of the rise of racism having it's origins within white North American (European) institutions, since the colonization of the Americas. Those who believe this really need to travel more. The racism that exists and persists in Asian countries towards each other predates colonization. Homogenous societies, especial ancient historical ones always feared newcomers who did not resemble them. Historically racism was much more pervasive on a national level than it is today. The Japanese and Chinese, hated and feared one another long before Europeans entered their spheres. Even North American indigenous peoples held strong prejudices towards those from other tribes, considering them completely different peoples, despite their physical similarities. They did not consider other tribes as being from the same source of genealogical predecessors. Many tribes did not consider tribes they held animosity towards as being human beings. When one group of people believes another group of people are inferior, feeling no kinship towards them in any way, that is racism not tribalism.

      1. Start with a conclusion and do research to fit in their predetermined conclusions
      2. Have ulterior motives that have been prescribed by either a government or the private sector
      3. Are anachronistic, i.e. use modern conceptions to fit history into their modern intellectual models, which makes no sense whatsoever
      4. Find it difficult to accept that something in history remains unexplained. A theory is needed urgently to capture it.
      The real scholars are very diligent and careful, they number in a few hundred at best.

    This was the argument about 100 years ago. See 3:09 of video. Just look at the video in article about the Sikh. well before 1966. Year 1966 was when immigration was opened to non Europeans. There was an issue with Fins. About 500 years ago as governments and Swedes and Fins and Norwegians sent government sponsored explorers further up north towards the Arctic circle, they found that these three countries had aboriginal settlement of Inuits / Eskimos north of the Arctic Circles. About 400 years ago, the Inuits / Eskimo villagers of the extreme north regions of these countries were deported and sent to Imperial Russia in exchange for money. Why" because these were sizable areas compared to the population. That time, the area was thinly populated: the population of Finland had 1 million whites and Norway had 1 million whites. So the2 million strong Swedes and 1 million strong Norwegians and 1 million strong Finns could ill afford to keep the aboriginal Eskimos within their borders near the Arctic circle.

    The Indo-European language theory is not at all controversial in academia. It is the overwhelmingly accepted consensus. The languages of northern India are still called Indo-Aryan while the south Indian languages are called Dravidian. The invasion theory (now corroborated with genetic evidence on top of the linguistic evidence) accounts for why the northern Indian languages are Indo-European (the Indo part meaning of India) and why the southern Indian languages are not.
    Anyway, that was way too academic and nuanced a response for antiwhite hacks who don't care about the facts and just need to prove a point to arrive at antiwhite conclusions.

      That theory is universally created and accepted by....Europeans. The invasion theory is not accepted at all. In fact the genetic tests and evidence states clearly that today's Indian people are pretty much the same Indian people that were there since the times of the Indus Valley with some admixture due to foreign invasions of Persians, Muslims and some White people. It seems like every European has a version of this idea that foreigners created India. That is absurd. There is more evidence Sanskrit is older and than all other Indo-European language and thus all of the foundation of Indo-European language hinges on Sanskrit first and foremost. Even more so, the Europeans used Sanskrit to claim that Sanskrit comes from outside of India but without a single shred of evidence.
      Going back to the invasion theory, it is now known as migration theory. This is only exists because...the Europeans wrote the books. they published the books. They set the standards. That will change soon.

    In an anti white time, im so proud to be white. Proud of a great nation that we brought into being. We have been the means where by our success was shared with other countries. We raised the standard of living for the rest of the world. We are revered for our greatness. Inspite of thoes that out of jealousy despise us, we will continue to care about our fellow man and share our success in science, and medicine and industry with them like we have for over a humdred years.

    Caucasians domesticated the horse and invented the wagon, went forth conquering and literally the rest is history. That's not a theory.
