did you hear that Cleopatra was black

yep that is right, Netflix confirmed it as did the writers of the series. So it must be true.

Just ignore the lawsuit happing against Netflix by some Egyptians for trying to erase their history.
Surely it wouldnt be Hollywood trying to rewrite history to put black people at the center of everything instead of just making compelling shows on Black history that does not include slavery
Race swapping is just far easier

it's wild how the word "white washing" exists but leftists literally try to wrongfully rewrite history and make all these false exclamations about characters in history being black. Next they will say ghengis Kahn was black lmao. and then the media instead of making NEW movies for african americans to star in they just replace the white characters.

@DeluxedEdition so true ... 'white-washing' is a derogatory word, but do we have issues with that ... 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

@DeluxedEdition exactly. All hypocrites and they act like nobody should care about attempts at rewriting history. Its truly insane.
Hollywood cant seem to write anything new for black characters so instead they race swap popular established characters. Disney is the biggest culprit of doing that recently and Netflix are the ones that constantly seem to keep raceswapping historical figures. They clearly want to make more entertainment focussing on black people but outside of slavery, they have nothing it would seem.
Black people should really be more offended over this if you really think about it

@Torsten shouldn't we be complaining about 'Cultural Approbation' 🤭🤭🤭

@BigGuy2 I wasn’t trying to go there but bw always have something to say about ww wearing braids and how it’s cultural appropriation meanwhile they will go around with blonde straight wigs.

I don’t care what anybody does or how they express themselves but the hypocrisy is unreal

@DeluxedEdition ... i agree, i'm tired {it's appropriation, not approbation} 🤭🤭🤭

... there was a discussion on Dr Phil about cultural appropriation - henceforth CA - there was some 'Professor' {University of Mickey Mouse} who mentioned it, but no one pointed out to him that if he had an issue with CA, why was he wearing a suit, shirt and tie 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️ {he was black}
