WORKING HISTORICAL HYPOTHESES
MY WORKING HISTORICAL HYPOTHESES
By hypothesis, I would respectfully assert that among the bases of Western civilization is an amalgam of parts that were absorbed from their association with the black sages of ancient Egypt (Kemet) from whom each acquired: Greeks (science, mathematics, philosophy) and Hebrews (religion and trade).
As augmented by others, these tenets have come down to us, as though the purveyors were the actual creators of the knowledge conveyed. While those who were nearest in time and space to this cultural osmosis were not those who were its plagiarists, those who were more distantly dissociated in its expropriation, capitalized upon the opportunity offered by lack of knowledge by the descendants of the Ancient Africans themselves, and rationalization for exploitation!
These are my working hypotheses on which I labor and study to sustain.
