   The maker of this video is a bigot. He did not do his research. Black people were not uncommon in Rome, Egypt, and other ancient areas. If the first men to occupy this world were Black who is to say what areas we occupied. The richest society. If you want a "true" history of Blacks in Africa and the USA then read "From Slavery to Freedom " by John Hope Franklin. The history and achievements of Blacks have long been hidden and distorted by the American and European societies. The internet is now exposing the history of Blacks. Google Timbuktu where at one time the richest man in the world live, or the slave spy that help Washington win the Revolutionary war.

   It's hard to realize the true facts . You don't always get what you want ! The fact that black people ruled Europe , is hard for some of you to understand ! According to the Bible , the black people will rule the world again ! If you don't like the fact of black people ruling , then tell it to God , cause he's in charge ! Yahweh God , knows what he's doing !

   Tell me , don't you feel like something is about to happen and there's nothing you can do about it ? This what you are feeling is fear , cause God Almighty Yahweh is coming and he is not happy with the way you people have treated his name , the name of his son Yeshua and the mistreatment of his chosen people , the black people of North and South America . But you in your pride and heart , don't see that you have done wrong. Sometimes , not doing anything when you see injustice and mistreatment , is the same as doing the injustice yourself !

   Most professional historians now recognize that European ethnicities of the dark ages and medieval periods were just as diverse as they are currently. And for much the same reasons. You are laboring under the ideas fabricated by the past 150+ years of white European domination of history. Materials promoted to justify economic imperialism and exploitation of other cultures. Those factors were not the same in medieval times. The only people continuing to promote the imperial-colonial "white europe" myths now are largely armatures outside of the scholarly circles. Among those who conduct actual scientific research, the topic is pretty much settled.

   It's the other way around, Blacks ruled Europe during the dark and medieval ages… Look at the art work.. Germany and Russia were Black nations.

   Surely if Blacks were numerous in Medieval Europe as it is today they would be shown in paintings and sculptures, right?

    as a black man i completely agree… there are plenty of great historic stories to tell about black people without having to "black wash" European stories. I happen to love the story of Beowulf but I will NOT be watching this show for the reasons you just mentioned. Implementing black characters into stories for political correctness is in it self sort of racist. Am I not allowed to appreciate medieval European culture without having to have black characters to cling to?

    Dont think asian movies got away. There are plenty of medieval asian movies with white men in them – Great Wall, 47 Ronin, etc. And that shit makes less sense than blacks in Europe.

    They even avoid making medieval and historical movie because they have to fill a black people "quota". It's post modernism trying to rewrite history.

    I believe in the old formation of battleground, it had to been multi-cultural. To many film makers glorified white men leaders, however the ones who really sacrifice them field fighters, in hopes of making a name for themselves. Don't get recognize. I served in the U.S. military even though I am from Compton, CA. I sense in my DNA those who do struggle to fight, and those who are separate life rather live the finer things in life making themselves out to be superior. Making themselves look like assholes as black or minority look at the one who proposing.

    It's been 6 years since you made this video and they're literally doing it like 100x as much now. Everything is black. They're just trolling us at this point. They don't care if it's obvious; they have an agenda.

    We live times that are cruel. Diversity of racial makeups in movies no matter the historicity are going to be supported by academics who think race is important enough to make producers hire black actors. The truth is if Hollywood doesn't hire black actors they will be called racists. A word that has a biting sting, no one likes to be called that, so when there is a movie about medieval times there must be "diversity". Do you remember "Zulu", the depiction of a battle where white men are triumphant over black men was so abhorrent to Hollywood that they made the movie "Zulu Dawn". Films of today, weather science fiction, horror, or plain drama should have black actors because of what is happening today. Take a look at the statistic of interracial marriages today. its increasing every year. Its fantasy to have women in battles and individual combat but thats another story for now.

    There are two types of casting involved now. The first is where black people are inserted in historic European stories on the flimsy basis they were somehow there at the time. The second more recent one is 'colour blind' casting, where black actors take historically white roles. This is mostly in the UK. Examples are Bridgerton, The Hollow Crown, and especially Ann Boleyn with the main character becoming black. The strange thing is that colour blind casting only applies to black actors, we don't see Asian actors for example cast in these cases. It is also arguably patronising to black actors.

    Evidently the spirit of inclusion trumps that of historical accuracy in order to placate the ignorant. Given the utterly contemptible state of whites who have been so thoroughly castrated of pride-these contemptible accomplices to the destruction of our sacred history wont be happy until every European story include as a central character at least one blind, black, lesbian, wheel chairbound, character with a lisp no less. If you object well then you are a racist no less. I no longer fear this tittle, in fact I go so far as to say they can kiss my ass.

    Even if black people where actually there white people would have wrote them out anyways. They’ve been discrediting the black contribution for centuries. When white people couldn’t figure out how black people built the pyramids they said it was aliens. Egyptians are Africans and guess what?? The original man…he was African too. And if God created man in his image…then guess what? God is black too lol

    I think black actors in medieval films based in Northern Europe completely destroys the atmosphere just like seeing white actors portraying ancient Egyptian roles for example! 🤷‍♂️
