So after watching that video he seems to treat the Egyptians as if they aren't African. He carefully avoided speaking about them. Does he not know the truth? Or is it political?

He knows, maybe he intentionally left it (Egypt/Kemet) out in order to bring light to other African kings, since we sometimes tend to focus too much on Egypt, forgetting that there were other great African societies as well. He also has more content which one can access through his Patreon account (I think) , so he may have left some out, so that one would have to pay for it, in order to access it. |

But the thing is. He brought up the Nubian Kings. He very well could have named off Egyptian kings and been right. I understand though. The rest of Africa is ignored in light of Egypt/Nubia. My own personal bias has always been that Egypt was the greatest Ancient Civilization. Even more grand than Rome.

Well, you're "sorta" right in your assertion, by that I mean that many (even among us Africans) tend to focus solely on Egypt, as if that was the only African civilization worth talking of (which isn't true, of course) . Sometimes "we" tend to become a little bit too "Egyptcentric" , but I guess it's mainly due to the amount of artifacts etc left behind. There's just so much stuff to comprehend.
