Afrocentrism in all its grotesque glory

Can you imagine these lazy, stupid, anarchic, violent man-ape hybrids inventing anything? I don’t even believe that they invented peanut butter, as they claim. They can’t even run Detroit today but somehow they built the pyramids and continental empires thousands of years ago…

Ms. Lefkowitz had actually gone easy on “Black Athena.” And her husband’s riposte was quite gentle itself. The charge, remember, was that Aristotle had hopped a boat from Athens, strolled into the library at Alexandria, grabbed a bunch of books, brought them back to Greece, and put his name on them. This is almost so unbelievable that it has to be true — but, alas, it isn’t. First, there is no record of Aristotle ever having gone to Egypt. Maybe that evidence was suppressed? Perhaps — but there wasn’t even a library in Alexandria for Aristotle to pillage during his lifetime. It wasn’t built until at least 297 BCE; Aristotle died in 323 BCE. Even if he had wanted to steal the Egyptians’ “Metaphysics,” “Poetics,” or “Politics,” he wouldn’t have been able to find them in Alexandria.
