This meme is double wrong. Pyramids were not built by slaves, and obviously Egyptians are not black. Not even close, they are a completely different race.

Go in Egypt and call them blacks and they'll probably lynch you.

I think Copts are the oldest Egyptians and Copts have Greek ancestry.

Look at the hieroglyphics. Blacks are portrayed as black, Egyptians are not. Blacks originate from Sub-Saharan Africa. North Africa has historically been 'Arabish.'

"obviously Egyptians are not black"

That's the punch line, right there

until the famine came

they first bought grain with their gold/money

then they sold their animals to the govt for food

then they sold their land to the govt for food

and eventually they only had themselves and became slaves

2,200 years ago in the ancient Egyptian city Tebtunis, Egyptians voluntarily entered into slave contracts with the local temple for all eternity. And they even paid a monthly fee for the 'privilege'.

Depends on what part of Eygpt you go to. There are plenty of black Egyptians there. The country is located in Africa and farther south you go in the country the more blacks you come across.

They are recent immigrants. They have nothing to do with the Egyptian civilization.

The Sarah desert used to be an impenetrable natural barrier, so the continent of Africa is cut off in two parts.
