Africa The Non Existent Continent
Dust is even better than Africa, because it finally settles on the furniture. We tried lying to mama about dusting. She would run her finger on the table, look at us and that was the end of the matter.
Africa doesn’t exist because of the menu. There are Italian, Portuguese, Indian, Chinese and French dishes. There is even Russian pavlova. There is the Mediterranean diet. I don’t know what it is because I don’t diet. I eat. There is water from the Swiss Alps. School kids learn about German and British scientists. There is Pythagoras, Plato, Socrates, Aristotle and other so-called Greek philosophers.
They all went to Egypt before they miraculously came up with that knowledge. In all of Greece, there is no evidence that it is the birth place of this philosophy (Stolen Legacy by George G.M. James). It is African knowledge, but don’t quote me because Africa is a non-existent continent.
Because it doesn’t exist, Egypt is not in Africa. That’s why Egyptians are mad at the Netflix docudrama produced by Jada Pinkett Smith where she cast a black woman, as Cleopatra. Elizabeth Taylor, a white actress played Cleopatra many years ago. Yes, ‘played.’ That’s what actresses do. She is not Egyptian.
Egypt is not part of Africa. Impossible! Africa does not have any knowledge because its mind is black, like its skin. Of course, there are variations. Africans down south in South Africa have their own shade of black. Don’t call them Bushmen. They are Khoisan. They speak a language similar to my name, Nonqaba.
But the majority of sons and daughters of the soil have a deep black colour, as black as the soil that nourishes the iroko tree, arrogant enough to try and reach the sky, (izulu in the Zulu language). Because of the Cleopatra controversy, we apologize to one guy online who said Egyptians are not white or black. He implored America not to bring its racial problems to Egypt.
Africa is a non-existent continent. God assigned the colour black to that mass of land, but painted its mind black. That is why there’s no body of knowledge attributed to Africa. Only diseases. Men in America indulge in sexual experiments, which result in HIV/AIDS, a common killer of men in the fashion and entertainment industry.
America does not take ownership so the deadly disease was shifted to the non existent continent. African monkeys are supposedly responsible for HIV/Aids. China is another scapegoat. It is accused of giving the world COVID-19.
Once again, we apologize to Egyptians for tainting them with the colour black. The only solution to the problem is to remove Egypt from Africa. It can be done. Knowledge stolen from ancient Egypt is called Greek philosophy.
