"Black" Pharaohs Quiz

"Black" Pharaohs Quiz

Please take this quiz and post your reactions to the questions, and the "correct" answers. I don't proclaim to be an "expert" but I do know a little about the period. I got three of the questions right and was told "Maybe you should try again".

Anyway, hope you "enjoy" the quiz.

I got 3 out of 10 too...
It was a typical euro-based slanted interpreted quiz. Of course! It's from National Geographic!

I was sitting there looking at the illustrations and answers......the illustrations were opposite of what was being said that was the correct answers.

I was irritated to say the least.

I thought that the language was loaded in most of the questions. Glad to see that it wasn't just me.

Thumbs down Don't Fall For This Test Black Folks!!!!

Don't Fall For This Test Black Folks!!!!

The term Black Pharaoh is a redundancy!

This test and the National Geographic cover article that it derives from is some racist BULLSHIT and should not even be here within this forum!

The first question is based on the controversy of what does Kemet means that has been the question that Dr. Yosef ben-Jochannan, Cheikh Anta Diop, and many other Black scholars have weighed their whole academic careers on, and National Geographic know this. For our scholars made it clear that Kemet meaning Black lands, was denoting the color of the people, and not merely the color of the soil.

If race was not a social construct in Ancient Egypt (as implied in this test), than why have a test on it?

White scholars still refuse to give Kemet or Ancient Egypt back to Africa! For if Ancient Egyptians were not Black, than Black people of today must be merely Ancient Egyptians, for both people looked the same. The diverse African phenotypes seen amongst the Ancient Egyptians can easily be found throughout East Africa today, and can be definitely found amongst the African people in the Diaspora.

Also the term “Nubia” and “n’hsi” are two different terms, for term "Nubia" is usually denoted in most ancient Egyptian textbooks to mean “gold” (i.e., Nubia – the land of the gold)

…and then they tell you that n’shi didn’t mean “black” but “burnt!” What type of ig’nant racist ass tricknology or spin is that…! Isn't burnt and black synonymous as it applies to representing a color?
