www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUMJMk7U3skI'm not well versed in DNA like some on this forum, but I did find this video on You -Tube on the migration from out of Africa to other lands that are now Asian populations. This video I think can add to the information on topic of Black Asians by tracking the OOA migrations from a DNA perspective. So please feel free to analyze & interpret the information in this video to the rest of us, less versed in DNA. I open up a topic on this because i ahve not paid attention until recently about the dna finding of most black asians.I WOULD lie to know more views about this too. until recently i though most asians blacks we closely related to africans.I WAS A BIT SURPRISE they were not,because from this forum i kept reading they were not and i was saying,what the heck is going on now?and i did a little bit more researh in this area and i said to myself, oh boy is this a con job? anyway i would like to read more views myself. here is the a topic i opened up,maybe i could get some views here is well. Asian blacks or Ancient African kings of India www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=15&t=004112#000005 |

Here is someone with a view
Runoko Rashidi is a late-20th c. historian, researcher, writer, world traveler, and public lecturer based in Los Angeles. Runoko Rashidi focuses on the African presence globally and what he claims to be the African foundations of world civilizations. He is particularly drawn to the African presence in Asia, Australia, and the Pacific Islands, and has coordinated historic educational group tours to India, Aboriginal Australia, the Fiji Islands and Southeast Asia as well as Egypt and Brazil. His academic focus is in "the Black foundations of world civilizations". He has conducted research into the Black presence in Asia.

Countering Eurocentrism
Rashidi rejects the claims by European anthropologists that the Negritos, Australoids, Negroids and Arabian Mediterraneans are separate races. He claims that they are all "Africoid" or "Black". He believes European anthropologists have used "unscientific" and "invalid" methods and that their work was "racially motivated" to divide people who were clearly Africoid in race. He cites Cheikh Diop's statement on race.
A racial classification is given to a group of individuals who share a certain number of anthropological traits, which is necessary so that they not be confused with others...It is the physical appearance which counts...Now, every time these relationships are not favorable to the Western cultures, an effort is made to undermine the cultural consciousness of Africans by telling them, "We don't even know what a race is."...It is the phenotype which as given us so much difficulty throughout history, so it is this which must be considered in these relations.
Blacks in India
Rashidi claims that the Dravidians and Siddi of India are part of the black race He claims that until 500 years ago the Dravidians had a technologically advanced society that was well-known in the ancient world. These black Dravidians portrayed their gods as blacks and portrayed evil beings with white skin. He claims the Aryans were "barbarian" whites who enslaved the indigenous black Dravidians in the caste system after they stole the advanced technology of the Dravidians 500 years ago.

www.youtube.com/user/AfricaTeacher#p/u/26/qErhFiCvyKEI'm sure most on this forum are familiar with Dr. Shormarka Keita & his work. I had saved this segment( Video) & looked at it again, for I remember he speaks about the topic of this post from 5:13 to 7:16 & beyond. Because I have the utmost admiration & respect for Dr. Keita I feel he has the last word on this matter ! What I respect about him is that he is a scientist & not hung up on ideology l
