The African Origin of Civilization

I cannot understand how people are confused with the identity of the pharaohs. By simply looking at the statues and busts of the ancient Kemets (Egyptians),I see black with black features. Diop argues the Egyptian civilization was initiated by the Black Race and sustained by it. This race was from the land of Kush starting from the identity of the mummies, the "red" complexion, the relationship of Egypt with its neighbours what happened to them.
