Greetings once again Cde Mawethu,
This debate feels like we are having a discussion over a tape recorder as there is no "direct" engagement. I penned "Sarcastic anthropology" without an iota of doubt knowing how this conversation is going to end. It has happened before when a black man's thinking capacity was equated with the length of his hair. Hypothetically speaking, say there's no dissenting voices, it's generally agreed that white people sprung from a black man's loins, which is a biological fact, who in turn "supposedly" descended from species like Homo Naledi, will that make it correct? No! For centuries such debates have been conceptualised and decided upon by a certain section of the human race shoving off other members of the same race to the rafters because of their hue. If by objecting that other nationalities should lead a conversion about blacks sounds divisive, by letting them is ostensibly an acceptance of (sub)humanity. A number of discoveries have been unearthed in the past. Fossils were named after their discoverer(s), lake(s) or site(s) or countries where they were discovered. This would occur after reconstruction. Here are a few: Australopithacus; Paranthropus; Heildelgensis; Homo ergaster; Homo habilis; Sinanthropus aka Peking man, Pithecantropus, Java man etc. But the appellation bestowed to this small-brained species is subliminally suggestive of a specific section of the human race. I doubt there was a Naledi, which means star in Sesotho, amongst its discoverers, a stratagem they will try to employ in order to wriggle themselves out of this racist poppycock. Africans aught to brace themselves for some "experts" from "Non-Black" communities gaining gratuitous airtime on some various inebriated media platforms to propagate this "magnificent" discovery. Their argument, as it has already started, will be based on science versus religion - evolutionists and creationists. There'll be citing(s) of Darwinism and quoting(s) of the Bible. Us who oppose the Caucasian Adam and Eve of the Bible will find ourselves tacitly accepting that we evolved from baboons. Sounds like a catch 22 situation, right??? It is only if we let business men-cum-politicians pose for photographs agreeing to this charade. On this the likes of Ramaphosa's voices are ultracrepidarian and should not carry any weight, we know who we are!!! -- -- Sending your posting to payco@googlegroups.com Unsubscribe by sending an email to payco-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com You can also visit http://groups.google.com/group/payco Visit our website at www.mayihlome.wordpress.com --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Pan Africanist Youth Congress" group.
