Kevin Hart. You are not welcome in Egypt. The pioneers said this phrase on social media sites. Activating a hashtag to cancel the American actor Kevin Hart's concert under the title "Our civilization is not for theft" and "You are not welcome in Egypt."
Kevin Hart's concert was scheduled to be held on February 21, 2023, at the Cairo Stadium. The organizing company ignored what was happening and issued the tickets for Kevin Hart's concert through one of the electronic platforms. Their prices ranged between 1200, 1700, 2000, 3700, 4300, 4500, and 5000 Egyptian pounds.
What did Kevin Hart Said?
Hart said in previous statements: "We must teach our children the true history of black Africans when they were kings in Egypt," ignoring many historical facts and persisting in his statements, insulting Egyptian history, and several social media Actives attacked Hart, saying that he embraced the ideas of the "Afrocentric" movement.
Afrocentrism:
It is an ideology and a global organization centered primarily in the United States of America among Afro-Americans. It has now spread widely among sub-Saharan African communities in Europe and even among sub-Saharan Africans and minorities in North Africa and the Middle East. Among its most famous theorists are Molefi Asante and the Senegalese Anta Diop.
Were the ancient Egyptians white or black?
Egyptian archaeologists, writers, researchers, and others have had different opinions about the ancient Egyptians' race and ancestry since at least the 1970s. Some believe today that their origin goes back to the peoples of sub-Saharan Africa.
However, some thinkers strongly believe that the black race in Africa has never been a significant and considered civilization, which is very wrong, as history has preserved many powerful and advanced African civilizations that arose in the form of kingdoms and empires over the years.
The problem was that it was impossible to sequence the DNA of ancient mummies. Still, an international team of scientists, using unique techniques and methods, succeeded in doing so, i.e., creating a sequence of DNA belonging to a very old mummy. They had discovered that the Egyptians, The ancients, were more closely related to the Near East peoples than those in sub-Saharan Africa. Specifically, they were related to the peoples of the Levant region. This refers to the eastern coast of the Mediterranean Sea, which includes today each of the countries: Turkey, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon.
The mummies used by this research team date back to the New Kingdom era, until the period when Egypt was under Roman rule.
According to the study published in Nature:
Egyptians share more than their ancient ancestors in 8% of their genome with the peoples of Central Africa, and knowing where Egypt is located will help them understand. This may be due to the trans-Saharan slave trade or just a regular long-distance trade between the two regions, in addition to the developed transportation system in the Nile River during this period, which increased trade with the interior regions of Africa.
Ancient Egypt was invaded on many occasions in ancient times by: "Alexander the Great," the Greeks, the Romans, and the Arabs.
Today, researchers want to know the extent of the impact that these invasions and occupations had on the genes of the ancient Egyptian people over time. The head of the research team, Wolfgang Hack, at the Max Planck Institute in Germany, says: "The genes of the 'Abu Sir Al-Malaq' community have not changed. Any major changes during the previous one thousand and three hundred years that we studied indicate that the ancient Egyptian people were not affected genetically in any way by the foreign invasions that affected them and the foreign governments that ruled them."
German archaeologist Johannes Krause led this study at the "Max Planck Institute." He stated: "Historically, there has always been a problem with finding intact DNA and extracting it from mummies, as the very hot climate In Egypt, the high levels of humidity, in addition to the chemical materials and solutions that are used in the embalming technique, deteriorated the quality of the DNA in it, and it was believed that these factors made the survival rate of this DNA during very long periods unlikely."
In the end, Kevin Hart did not commit a terrible mistake to be dealt with in this way, so we are all waiting for you on February 21, 2023, in Cairo, Egypt.
