What is your opinion of this quote "Black Trans Women Create Everything," which I saw spray-painted on the side of a dumpster down by Lake Merritt a couple weeks ago? Personally I do not think this is correct. Quite a few things, ranging from peanut butter to the Pyramids of Giza, were not created by black trans women. So I am fairly certain that this is not historically accurate.

Is this claim supported by leftists on this site? Is it a typical sentiment expressed by the left? Will it be incorporated into the Democratic national platform for 2020? Where does Joe Biden stand on the issue of whether or not black trans women created literally everything in the entire known universe? Inquiring minds want to know.

Who are you to say the pyramids weren't first devised by a black transwoman?

Because the Egyptians weren't black.

Ok, I'm glad the joke landed for at least one person.

You've really waded into a contentious debate now:

It doesn't seem that contentious. This is a quote from what you just linked to:

"Mainstream scholars reject the notion that Egypt was a white or black civilization."

The majority of the ancient Egyptians were brown, and probably resembled modern-day Mediterranean peoples. Some, like the Nubians, were black. Others, such as the Ptolemaic rulers, were descended from Macedonians and were therefore probably paler. But again, no one aside from Olawakandi thinks that all ancient Egyptians were black, and no, it's not controversial.

If OC says it it must be true
