So you're telling me Greek ships have never been to Africa? Greece and Egypt are literally next door to each other. US education is madness.

Are you implying that Egyptians are black?

Do you think Egypt always had the Arab demographics we see today?

There’s literally still native black Egyptians today.
Over the course of history many different races occupied Egypt. This idea it was completely monoracial is just some failure of American education system.

You do understand that the Arabs didn't displace the old Egyptians right? Their rulers converted to Islam or were conquered by Muslims. The people are the same they just speak a different language.

Of course there has always been some migration across the Sahara, but not in any large numbers, the Egyptians and the rest of northern Africa are and have always been about the same skin tone as the rest of the people around the Mediterranean.
