AFRICANS VISITED AMERICA 2000 YEARS BEFORE COLUMBUS , 11 UNDENIABLE PROOFS ; Black History.
![](https://i2.wp.com/res.cloudinary.com/glide/image/fetch/https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2Fbpfbo7Ons_E%2Fmaxresdefault.jpg?w=1200&resize=1200,0&ssl=1)
11 Reasons Tp Prove That Africans Were in America 2000 years Before Colombus.
Let me take you on a journey through some of these fascinating pieces of evidence of African presence in America 2000 years before Columbus. Take them with a grain of salt if you have to, but I think they are worth some consideration.
1. Olmec Heads: The colossal stone heads created by the Olmec civilization in present-day Mexico, which date back to 1500 BCE to 400 BCE, feature distinctly African facial features. These heads feature facial features such as broad noses, full lips, and round faces that clearly resemble those of Africans more than the indigenous populations of the Americas. Tell me this is not a black man right there. The detailed and realistic nature of the Olmec heads suggests they were based on real individuals. It is no wonder not surprising that some researchers contend that these features indicate an African presence in pre-Columbian America.
2. African Artifacts in the Americas: Artifacts such as cotton from Africa and tobacco pipes found in pre-Columbian sites in South America have led some to speculate about transatlantic contact. In addition, metal artefacts with similar metallurgical techniques to those used in West Africa have been found in pre-Columbian American sites.

Before the next point kindly give us a like. I know to you it’s a simple click, but to us it means a lot.
3. Botanical Evidence: Certain plants like the bottle gourd and the sweet potato are thought to have originated in Africa and Asia but were present in pre-Columbian America, suggesting possible ancient transoceanic contact.
4. Linguistic Evidence: Some linguists claim to have found similarities between certain Native American languages and African languages. Some proponents argue that there are similarities between ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and symbols found in Mesoamerican writing systems, such as those of the Maya. The Mandinka word “makala,” meaning “rice,” is compared to the similar-sounding words in some Native American languages.
Dr. Clyde Winters points to shared vocabulary and phonetic similarities, such as the word “yu” in Mandinka meaning “to give” and a similar-sounding word in the Olmec language with the same meaning.
Leo Wiener, in his early 20th-century work “Africa and the Discovery of America,” cited examples such as the Wolof word “tem” (to cut) and its similarity to the Algonquian word “temagun” (an axe).
5. THOR HEYERDAHL’S RAFT EXPERIMENTS: The Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl demonstrated with his expeditions (Kon-Tiki and Ra) that it was possible to travel across the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans using ancient boat-building techniques, suggesting that such voyages could have occurred in ancient times.
6. Ancient Maps: Some historical maps, such as the Piri Reis map, allegedly show parts of the American continent with a level of detail suggesting pre-Columbian exploration, potentially by African or other non-European civilizations.
7. Skull Analysis: Studies of certain skeletal remains, such as the Luzia Woman found in Brazil, have shown features that some anthropologists argue resemble those of African or Australoid populations rather than Native American populations.
8. Accounts from Early European Explorers: Some early European explorers, such as Vasco Núñez de Balboa, reported encountering dark-skinned peoples in the Americas upon their arrival.
9. Cultural Similarities: Some researchers point to cultural parallels between African and American civilizations, such as pyramid building, similar religious practices, and iconography, as potential evidence of contact.
10. Presence of Black peoples in Asia, Australia and the Pacific. If Black people can be found in as far as the Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Malaysia many Islands in the Pacific, why can’t they be found in the Americas? I mean it makes no sense for the Americas to be the exception right?
11. Genetic Studies: While controversial and not universally accepted, some genetic studies have indicated the presence of haplogroups in Native American populations that are also found in African populations, suggesting ancient intermingling.

Was he a sell out to the white western establishment…..or did he believe the stuff he endorsed so energetically?

The Roman model of Empire, integrating different people and then granting them citizenship, was later replicated by Spain in America, from the US Southwest to Patagonia. The British and French model of colonization was radically different. Profit before culture or religion.

Pure nonsense. As if the only way a group of people can advance is by colonization. Before Rome or England, there were great civilizations. To this day we have not figured out how they have done some of the things they have done. who to say this is the better way? Mankind just made do with what's at hand. They like this guy because he doesn't hold certain people accountable for the evil they have done and are doing. Just like the congressman who thinks the Jim Crow era was good for all people. Nonsense!

Whilst I agree with much of what this chap says generally speaking.
This however is a gross simplification of the the subject of colonialisation.
India certainly was not wealthier when the British left. He may well be talking in the context of the African continent?
Also, I was born and bred in Scotland and they teach you nothing about colonialism in school so even the title is questionable IMHO.

This video shows why you shouldn’t let philosophers pretend to be historians or anthropologists, or really any other discipline. They opine with no evidence. Please name a 3rd-world country that was untouched by colonialism.

His main argument is that poverty and economic and culture development had nothing to do with colonization. Culturally many artifacts and things that we culturally celebrate today by food, music and dance as well as literature do not originally come from the colonizers but the places they came to like Africa, America, Asia etc..then I think people mistake what they mean when they say that the economic successes are due to colonization. The benefits that reflect economic success today that have a link to colonialism are trade routes and being able to keep costs down in the first stage of a supply chain. Where natural resources are mined and nurtured until they are delivered for manufacturing. Natural resources have a big role in this too, everything we manufacture is based on raw materials and Europe does not have many of the most important resources to be able to live off this lifestyle itself. Germany needs cheap gas and oil from Russia to even maintain its factories. France needs uranium for its energy supply from West Africa (Niger) the list goes on and on etc…The reason for all this rhetoric that colonization would not have been economically beneficial for the western world is so that no one will challenge the western hegemonic world order in organizations such as the IMF, the World Bank, the UN Security Council, etc. As an economist, we can accurately measure and see that many countries are doing well when no outside power is allowed to interfere. But development takes time and we must not forget that it has been approximately 50 years since many countries became independent from the colonial powers. But one thing you should know and that is that we all on this planet need each other. Naturally, we should have discussions about who has drawn the most economic and political benefit, but no success is from a single source without several links.

One thing people seem too scared to mention is that these colonial powers are regretting it now. Perhaps modern migration is just as bad/good as the original.
