• Egypt's 'Million March' Rooted in Black Protest Tradition

For geopolitical reasons Egypt has been successfully positioned as a Middle Eastern nation when it is actually geographically located in North Africa. Even though Egyptians today are Arabs and the government identifies with the Arab League more than it does with the African Union, several historians have established that ancient Egypt was Black.
