I don't think anyone believes that someone who is part black can't be a "genius" and that's what all these people above are, PART BLACK (primarily due to the slave trade). One or two of them are actually Nubians, who have more genetic link to Indians and hardly any link to Black Sub Saharan Africans. Now look to the Southern African sub continent and you will have better luck finding a buffet, then you will a "genius". The fact that there is no record in the "White" world of any of the great Black geniuses of antiquity is all the more embarrassing, why would you not make record of it yourselves? Oh I forgot, you were too busy running from lions and cheetahs.

Well correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't Nubians from Ethiopia... in sub-Saharan Africa?
"Oh I forgot, you were too busy running from lions and cheetahs."
While the worst thing Europeans had to deal with was some wolves, wild horses, and the occasional eurasian brown bear. Oh whoopie doo
The Mali and Ethiopian Empires would like to disagree with you. Also the Axumite Empire was one of the first adopters of Christianity, the predecessor to the Ethiopian Empire.
@Whatever and Nomen
Nubians were at one time part of a larger Ethiopian empire, but before that also took over Egypt. They had influence in both North African and Sub-Saharan doings. Since they exist in that East African part that's bordering the Sahara.

...oh, and I refer you to SomeGuy. Oh, and to reiterate what Goomy pls says, Ethiopian Jews. Your argument is invalid , Nobless Wimp.
White European tribes weren't very quick about inventing ways to write down their languages, either. Even Ogham script was based on runes, which were derived from Greek. Wasn't Charlemagne a bit dodgy on his literacy?

Actually, if you look through Egyptian, Greek, and Roman writings, I'm pretty sure you will find a few dark-skinned geniuses.
Making a "cutoff" distinction between North Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa is meaningless linguistically, culturally, genetically, etc. Because, trade routes.
I'm just going to nitpick for the sake of nitpicking--cheetahs do not attack people and are fragile enough that they would lose if they tried.
The rest, of course, is also wrong.
Y'know Lions in the wild avoid humans, right? We haven't run from then since before we discovered flint. We've got spears, we fuck their shit up. We've fucked their shit up for so many years that they instinctively recognise us as a threat, something that virtually no other animal does.
I won't even go into it, just type something like "early American black inventors" into Google.
Note as you read about them that most received no formal education but a growing developing country full of inbreed illiterates offered opportunities that much of Africa still doesn't.
And avoiding large predators is a skill many dumb fuck Americans fail at every year.
"I don't think anyone believes that someone who is part black can't be a "genius"
Neil deGrasse Tyson. And contradicted yourself, much? Grammatically, you're basically like a chav arrested by the police, and in his uneducated, ignorant - and therefore inferior - way, says 'I ain't done nuffink!'
You 'don't think' anyone accepts that someone part -black can't be a genius - when the proof exists: scientist and 21st Century Carl Sagan Neil deGrasse Tyson - you say, o NoblessWimp? Well, you've got the first three words in your statememt right at least: you don't think . Add the word 'Period', and we'll leave it at that.
Education is your friend , NoblessWimp. Neil deGrasse Tyson more -than has one, so what does that say about you and your inferior ilk?

One word: Pumas.
Confused?
