The Black man lived in the Middle East before the present people who are
now living there. And he had a high culture and a high civilization, to say
nothing about the oldest civilization of all that he had in Egypt along the
banks of the Nile. And in Carthage in northwest Africa, another part of the
continent, and at a later date in Mali and Ghana and Songhai and Moorish
civilization—all of these civilizations existed on the African continent
before America was discovered.
Now the Black civilization that shook the white man up the most was the
Egyptian civilization, and it was a Black civilization. It was along the banks
of the Nile, which runs through the heart of Africa. But again this tricky
white man, and he's tricky—and mind you again, when I say this, it's not a
racist statement. Some of them might not be tricky, but all of them I've met
are tricky. And his civilization shows his trickiness.
This tricky white man was able to take the Egyptian civilization, write
books about it, put pictures in those books, make movies for television and
the theatre—so skilfully that he has even convinced other white people that
the ancient Egyptians were white people themselves.
They were African; they were as much African as you and I. And he even
gave the clue away when he made this movie “King Solomon's Mines”, and
he showed the Watusis, you know, with their Black selves,
and he outright admitted in there that they looked like the ancient
pharaohs of ancient Egypt.
Which means that the white man himself, he knows that the Black man
had this high civilization in Egypt, whose remains today show the Black
man in that area had mastered mathematics, had mastered architecture,
the science of building things, had even mastered astronomy.”
