Should African Americans have our own party?

Shalom. Did you know that the word "negro" means..ancient Egyptian and Hebrew or non-Jew? Did you know that Abraham and Moses are considered to be Hebrew and Egyptian or "negro"? Did you know where the negro term comes from?? Woe!

...no it doesn't. What the heck?

 

[Creech]

The term negro came from the Spanish word for black if I'm not mistaken.

 

[Redac]

The term negro came from the Spanish word for black if I'm not mistaken.

Spanish and Portuguese sailors would use the word "negro" as a really basic description of people they found in the 15th and 16th centuries (because it does, indeed, mean "black"). It traces back to the Latin "nigrum" which meant black or dark. There's some speculation that it originated from a Proto-Indo-European word for "night" -- *nekw-t-.

That etymology about it being from Hebrew or whatever is utter nonsense.

The root word NGR existed in ancient Egyptian Sacred writings and hieroglyphs...and has divine origin and meaning." - Ernie A. Smith, M.D., Ph.D., Professor of Linguistics and Doctor of Internal Medicine

N-ger-s refers to ...The Goddess Neggur (Hathor) who is one of the oldest female deities of ancient Kemit (Egypt) who was worshipped thousands of years before Genesis and the Bible existed. - Sir E. A. Wallis Budge, (1857-1934), Egyptologist

I think you have to dig a bit deeper to understand where the term negro orginated.

My brother..You are so on point here..God bless your knowledge..for it is He whom empowers us with His wisdom. You are speaking about the Ancient Egyptian Epics..which are waaay older than the Torah and the bible..yet the fact of such.. could never be comprehended with the naked and feeble mind. Selah. Shalom.

It could work in a parliamentary system.

 

[Blackguard_]

Yes, I think they should split the Democratic Party vote.

It could work in a parliamentary system.

Or maybe some local or State elections in certain regions. Although it would depend on the party's image/polices, I mean a more broad appeal party of "social justice and civil rights" vs. the "kill whitey!" or quasi-Black Nationalist party.

Right. So if I tell you that the Japanese word for "name" is "namae", would you then infer that English got the word from the Japanese language, or vice versa? Or that they originated from a common source? Even the word "much" and the Spanish "mucho" look the same and have very similar meanings, they do not come from the same source. False cognates.

I looked for some sort academic support for that etymology, but I can't seem to find any. Do you have something better than the blogs I seem to be finding?

 

[MarkSB]

pssst...
Hey Mark. You missed that it should be "cite" rather than "site".

So much for snobbery.

Not to mention the structure of the first sentence was atrocious. But hey, I wasn't really looking to proofread the entire post.

 

[MarkSB]

Being a morehouse man I can prove everything I've said with stats and schoolars backing me up.

Give me a list of issues you have with what i've posted and by tonight all of them will be addressed......in the words of my uptown brethren bet that.

You've been asked on several occasions throughout this thread to back up your statements with evidence but have still not presented any. (At least as far as I have seen.)

If this were Vegas I'd be giving 100:1 odds that you would not be able to prove everything you've said in a court of law.

Like I said all the answers aren't on google you have to find authors read their books or some historians article then google it.

Pick something I came up with historian backed proof the n word originated in Africa, I said blacks are placed in prison longer then whites no one believed me someone posted the stats I already knew.

Everything I post is old knowledge for me I don't post what I don't know.

Pick two and will post authors and historians that support that theory. After I do so you have to agree to recognize that any time I post it's not a matter of can I find proof but do I feel the person is worth my time to.....is that agreed on then?

 

[Redac]

So in other words, no you do not have an academic source that you can share. Got it.

Sir Ernest Alfred Thompson Wallis Budge (27 July 1857 – 23 November 1934) was an English Egyptologist, Orientalist, and philologist who worked for the British Museum and published numerous works on the ancient Near East.

From 1869 to 1878 Budge spent whatever free time he had from his job at W.H. Smith studying Assyrian, and he often walked down to St. Paul's Cathedral over his lunch break to study during these years. When the organist of St. Paul's, John Stainer, noticed Budge's hard work, he decided to help the boy to realize his dream of working in a profession that would allow him to study Assyrian. Stainer contacted W.H. Smith, a Conservative Member of Parliament, and the former Liberal Prime Minister William Ewart Gladstone, and asked them to help his young friend. Both Smith and Gladstone agreed to help Stainer to raise money for Budge to attend Cambridge University, where Budge later studied Semitic languages, including Hebrew, Syriac, Ethiopic and Arabic from 1878 to 1883, continuing to study Assyrian on his own. Budge worked closely during these years with the famous scholar of Semitic languages William Wright, among others.[



I don't think I don't have any actually but hey I am not going to argue with you. This is the last bit of information I research for you. It's not worth my time to attempt to educate you and I do not have the patients.

Shalom and a blessed Sunday to you brother Avniel...I can sense your frustration here..and you are right..you have attempted to educate people here...(I've been taking notes so thank you) but see my brother..the ignorance if I may be that blunt..reaches all races..because as you well know..people must want to be educated in order to learn the lesson.

Furthermore..may I say..When Martin Luther King Jr. peacefully fought the good fight..there were a few white-men and women..whom walked with him..those were good conscious..bible and history educated people whom did not allow the racism of the times..blind them to the truth..which the Rev. was speaking of...they raised their voices all through the 60's and even the 70's...and then slowly their voices were completely drowned out.

And those few..have always stood in my mind..for I am sure that those were under fire by their own for standing up with the Rev. but yet they stood by him...since then..racism has grown so vast..that its hard today to find even a few...unless they are politicians whom "say" "they stand by us."

Now as was then..the minute we start speaking of the things..which Rev.Martin spoke about..we are under attack..why? because people fail to educate themselves..and not only that but those are unwilling to see the truth..even though the bible that we all read says...the truth will set us free John 8:32.

You continue to speak my brother..you may surprised at whom you..may be awakening. Selah. Bracha-Shalom.
