Afrocentrism is just as bad as eurocentrism

Afrocentrism is a reactionary movement intended to counter both perceived and real eurocentrism. While it's got hints of justification - there are plenty of examples of African history that have been incorrectly examined, downplayed, or even covered up entirely (looking at you, Rhodesia) as late as the past half-century - like many reactionary movements, it takes things too far.

At its best, it's a revisionist movement for areas of history that really do need a second look. At it's worst, it's quasi-nationalistic appropriation of various histories in the same way plenty of cultures have done over history.

Afrocentrism is far worse because it's so much less accurate.

White people actually did live in Europe, make the European states, etc.

Blacks did not fucking live in Europe, China, Mexico, etc. founding literally every fucking society.

Afrocentrism is comparable to Nordicism. Both are equally retarded.

This 100%. Eurocentrism is just focusing on Europe at the expense of other civilizations. Afrocentrism is straight up fiction.

Why does no one talk abour asiancentrism?

Hilarious and adorable.

None of you fucks know what Eurocentrism or Afrocentrism is.

The equivalent of an anatomy class that only talks about your toe.

Because asiacentrists dosnt invade every youtube video with their ''fuck white people!11'' shit

>What does Veeky Forums think of [geographic location]centrism?

It is the truth. Wake up, brothers

Enlighten us then.

I've yet to hear any sort of cohesive Afrocentrist world history.

It's all some version of "Blacks founded every society worldwide and ruled the world until the Cold War when non-blacks overthrew them everywhere except Africa."

How does that compare to Eurocentrism? Is there a cohesive Eurocentric argument?

This, it is all in good fun!

It's entertaining. I read the ramblings of one afro "we wuz kings" type talk about how black people "seeded" Chinese and Japanese societies. It was interesting, albeit in an Alex Jones, Hillary Clinton is a lizard person kind of interesting.

Why centrism at all? If you have a favorite area of study don't shove it on others

Yes, dumbfuck. The entire modern world as we know it would not exist without Europeans doing what they did. Throw into the fact that Europe basically conquered the world in the 19th century, the world was very much centered in Europe

>modern world
Into the trash it goes.

RACIST

Afrocentrism, or probably more accurately negrocentrism, is nordicism for the black man, and similarly the black community does a pretty reasonable job at ridiculing their own bullshit. The only reason we hear so much about it is mouthbreathing shitposters think it's epic to spam a new thread every few hours.

Least deserving of all the ethnicentrist groups.

Gotta agree with the second user. Heritagefags at least assign their larping to shit that actually happened, even if their ancestors were serfcucks who did very little. At least they were in the right place at the right time.

Afrocucks, depending on the kind, literally pretend they built everythangz everywhere. It's not just cultural appropriation, it's just straight out bullshit.

That being said that Richard Spencer faggot did go over the top when he started memeing about ancient egyptians being white. I guess it's just idpol movements trying to one-up each other.

black people do a shit job at ridiculing Afro-centrist. Sorry, but a few people making fun of them under the hotep-hastag on twitter doesn't make up for literally DOZENS, if not over a hundred, self-professed Afro-centric K-12 charter schools here. If you weigh in the topics pertaining to it and how it's discuss in their media, you'll find far more of it's defense and advocating for it than blacks condemning it. Which is why Afro-centricism is far beyond any current racial movement. It is minimizing and being apologists to their radical views by saying that they are just the analogous to every nationalist group here in the US, which it simply isn't true when it comes to how prevalent it is in their culture and how widespread the antipathy it is to it. No other race could avoid media attention and public backlash and counter-demonstrations like blacks have with the Black Hebrew Israelites with their street demonstrations.

Because of their exceptional and extreme case, and the fact that liberals don't want to confront their presence just so they don't offend the radical ones, it is just to constantly bring them up and mock them so the whole world can shift their attention and see how retarded they are.

Delusional insecurity.

it's somehow even worse than nordic WEWUZism

no such thing, "eurocentrism" is a label slapped by marxists to authentic history

>we wuz kangz

>im a centrist and everything is the same thing
>read horse shoe theory

I like it. Africans for Africa, white lands for white people.

Multiculturalism is a mistake. No I'm not white fuck off

Afrocentrism is just sad. Instead of promoting knowledge of neglected African civilizations, it just takes the standard account of Western history and claims everyone was actually black.

>Charlemagne

>Vikings

>Queen of England

Also does anyone remember that part from Addio Africa which was WE WUZ KANGZ incarnate?
