In the Hall of the Mountain King

Sometimes I ask myself: "maybe if the Pyramids of Giza were twice as tall, then perhaps white supremacists would acknowledge the contributions Africans have made to human civilization..."

But then I come to my senses, and realize that it would not matter if the Pyramids were as tall as Mount Everest. It would not even matter if the Pyramids stretched from Earth to the heavens and beyond. White supremacists would still not acknowledge any of it, because their beliefs have nothing to do with facts or evidence. All that matters is what they desperately want to believe: that Africans are inferior.
