The claims go even further with Afro centrists
accusing Egyptologists of painting tombs in white to
falsify history, as well as breaking the noses of
pharaonic figurines in order to conceal the features of
their “true African nose”. (Setting your facts straight
my dear reader: the ancient Egyptians actually had a
habit of breaking the statues' noses out of religious
beliefs in the afterlife).

Adding to all of their previous shocking conceptions,
when Gamal Abdel Nasser came and called for Arab
unity, so Egypt became the Arab Republic of Egypt
in a desire for a national Arab unit based on religion
and language, they thought that the word Arabic was
intended for race, not language, which, for them,
confirmed their claims that the current Egyptians were
Arabs and had nothing to do with the ancient
Egyptian.

And very recently, the threat of this movement is
exacerbated by their announcement of holding a
conference in Egypt, in February the 25th. The
conference called "One Africa Returning to the
Source" will be live on all websites to be viewed by
millions of people. As a counter bounce, these days,
we are witnessing an active movement on social
media by the Egyptian people, demanding that this
conference be cancelled and prevented from taking In conclusion, we wonder why the Egyptian
place on Egypt's precious soil. authorities have yet not acted to prevent the
Conference from taking place on our territory and the
stressing absence of any reaction of their part. In this
way, my dear Egyptian , you’ll be jeopardized if you
sing Nancy Ajram’s hit song (Ana masry w abouya
masry w samary w loni masry) or if the song
"Luxor baladna balad sowah" ( our land Luxor is
one of tourists) is criminalized since the insinuation
of “our” and “tourists” guarantees our possession of
our Egyptian identity in both cases.
