Long after Greece
2 ups, 5d
No, before the Archaic period in Greece, for the Egyptian temple, and while Greece was a provincial backwater, for the Malian architecture. I'm a big fan of Greece, but you shouldn't short-change Africa's many cultures.

Egypt was long after Greece?
You make a meme like this and you claim that Egypt was long after Greece?

My gosh.

A moronic answer to irritating questions. Egypt was a part of Africa but hardly representative of 90% of Africa. Hostins moronic comments were intended to show sub-saharan Africa had a more advanced culture than Greece, which it did not.

If you say so, thinking that Egyptian Pharaohs were in Jordan.

If she said anything about sub-Saharan Africa, I missed it because I wasn't exactly paying 100% attention. But what I did catch her saying was that Greece was influenced by neighboring Afro-Asiatic culture, and thus African, and how she knows because she used to teach it. Despite what she thinks, Afro-Asiatic is not sub-Saharan Africa, it is North Africa and the Middle East (of Asia), basically Semitic lands and what is often (and erroneously) referred to as Arabic. Afro-Asiatic is Caucasian, not sub-Saharan.

If you're going to quote her and her ignorant misinformation, at least quote her right.
First looking her up makes for greater efficiency - starting her name, Sunny Hostin.

If you need me to fix some of your errors, feel free to run these memes past me before you submit them. There's no point in being correct by getting it wrong anyways. You mess your own point up, leaving holes than anybody can poke right through.

It's interesting that cleopatra's life is closer to our time than to the time of the pyramids. So yes, I know Egypt is old and were building cities long before Greece, but Sunny Hostin doesn't.

You should have seen my face, because when I heard her starting to say that I turned towards the television (because I had it on but I wasn't looking at it the whole time) with this "The frick are you talking about?" look as not only was she getting it wrong, she actually said she knows because she was actually paid to teach this.

Last year I was bopping heads with Afrocentrists on Pinterest a lot, which for those in the reading audience who don't know, are African supremacist racists (usually American) I even got an ally from somebody in Belgium, so we would have linked each other to ridiculous discussions on various pins. Then I realized around December that Pinterest had shadowbanned the both of us. All I was doing was counter racists with facts anybody can look up while they're calling me an albino Neanderthal in Europe, and I'm the one that gets banned? Then again, given what I said in return about being proud to have Neanderthal DNA and why, I guess that was taken as a bit too harsh.

Gosh, me and my friend did have fun while it lasted.
