ive been reading several sources...and all of them either seem to link aborigines closely to africans in terms of their features and body structure and DNA. Other articles show linguistic similarities between the aborigines and africans.
I knew all along that the aborigines werent asian nor where they white people....yet scientists and archeologists have been fooling people all along with this nonsense. At first they had them grouped as caucasian, then that label changed to asian…Now how ridiculous is that? and you actually had alot of dumb (maybe blind is a better word) people who beleived it. Yet DNA tests and linguistic similarities show that aborigines line up closer to africans than they do to anyone. therefore aborigines are now grouped along with blacks.
anyway, here's one article that shows the aborigine connections to africa.
http://www.stewartsynopsis.com/Synopsis%206.htm
anyway i saw a thread here a while back that dealt with aborigine children and people were questioning rather or not they were black so i thought i would post this....

I once spoke to a man from Fiji. He was very dark much darker than me. He said that it was long known even among the Fijians themselves that they descended from Africa. |

its just funny that so many of the groups that look black arent classified as black...but any group that looks anywhere near white areclassified as white. whites even claim arabs to be caucasian...yeah whatever.
just another case of them changing up the labels on black people to keep us from connecting with one another....but at least now they got it right and are being more honest when it comes to the aborigines. Im waitig to see what they try to claim about the people of southern india though because i'll never forget they had them pegged as "dark skinned white people" too for a while...LMAO! |

"I once spoke to a man from Fiji. He was very dark much darker than me. He said that it was long known even among the Fijians themselves that they descended from Africa. "
it seems aborigines may have diverse opinions on this because i asked one aborigine woman from myspace if she knew of any aborigines who spoke an african language or any aborigine languages that were close to africa and she denied it to the fullest...mind you this woman was jet black with dreadlocks and a wide nose. if she hadnt said she was aborigine i wouod ahve thought she was black.... In other words, the woman looked more african than ME....i will say this though, she called me "sista."
her explanation was that scientists have been trying to just link aborigines to different groups of people in an effort to explain their existence because they really didnt have an answer as to where they came from....according to her the aborigines are just a distinct and separate group from other groups of people and have their own distinct culture. She felt that the claim that aborigines can be linked to africa was bizarre and ridiculous. |

So is it supposed to be a badge of honor to have it proven that aboriginies have African roots? It's not like they are people to take great pride in. They are primitive creatures who don't really have that much going for them. They are what they think they are. So be it. |

not saying its a badge of honor...just stating facts about what the aborigines are...It's always been interesting to me to know there are billions of other black people out there that many didnt know about. It's kind of like discovering aliens on another planet.
the archeologists and biologists need to be exposed for the liers many of them are and their agenda needs to be broguth to light. Its clear that this is simply a matter of them switchng up the labels to keep blacks from connecting with one another and uniting agaisnt white supremacy. the biologists dont see anything wrong in coming clear with the fact that the aborigines are black now because the aboirigenes have lived their lives for so long much as a distinct and separate group i doubt some of them will ever come around to connect with blacks...although some of them seem to.
as far as the aborigines never accomplishing anything....the truth is they were the first americans. Some of the native americans evolved from them and never went across the bearing straight. The aborigines built great civilizations in america. they were very intelligent. |

There is no great conspiracy by the white man to keep the negroids separate from the Australian Aboriginals. Trust me, if they were negroes then that distinction would have been made a long time ago, and they would have been trashed right along with the rest of us. Dark skin does not equal NEGROID. Me thinks you slept thru anthropology lessons.
Aboriginals are any people that are indigenous to a region. So the aboriginal people of America would be the Indians, and perhaps the Eskimos. Not the Aboriginals of Australia. There aren't even any physical similarities and HTF could they have gotten from Australia to America anyway?

What great civilizations did the "aboriginals" in North America build? The distinctive thing about these people in any country seems to be that, in their natural habitat, they are frozen in time preferring to live the way they have for thousands of years. |

"There is no great conspiracy by the white man to keep the negroids separate from the Australian Aboriginals. Trust me, if they were negroes then that distinction would have been made a long time ago, and they would have been trashed right along with the rest of us."
the aborigines were and are still being treated just as bad as black people in australia. so whites actually do throw them in the same bag as us. Like the native americans they were pushed off their land and are still being descriminated agaisnt.
"Dark skin does not equal NEGROID. Me thinks you slept thru anthropology lessons."
i never said it nessisarily equals negroid...but if you look at the aborigines there is almost NO difference between the way they look and the way people in the darker parts of africa look. Not only do they have black skin but they look the exact same as africans in the face. They also share the same exact build as people in the darker regions of africa (short torsos and long legs). The only difference is that they have shorter necks and wider heads and thier foreheads are slightly lower than those in west africa. Also alot of them have hair textures that are almost the exact same as west africans.
but really all you have to do is look at the article i presented in the first post...it tells it all. It shows cultural links and linguistic links between aborigines and africans...it also has DNA tests to prove it. There are several other articles just like this one as well
"Aboriginals are any people that are indigenous to a region."
right but not in the sense im tlaking about.
"So the aboriginal people of America would be the Indians, and perhaps the Eskimos. Not the Aboriginals of Australia."
not too long ago they dug up a burial ground in america and it showed the aboriginal people to be the first americans. In fact this was all shown on a video documentary. So the aborigines were actually the first people in america and they later turned into native americans. this doesnt mean the bearing straight theory is completely out the water ....but this jsut proves that not all of the ancestors of the native americans were asian.
"There aren't even any physical similarities"
on a whole there arent many physical similarities between blacks and whites either yet whites come from blacks....that all has to do with evolution and environmental adaptation.
"and HTF could they have gotten from Australia to America anyway?"
the same way the asians were said to come across the bering straight to america. |

"What great civilizations did the "aboriginals" in North America build? The distinctive thing about these people in any country seems to be that, in their natural habitat, they are frozen in time preferring to live the way they have for thousands of years. "
here is an article on some of the things they accomplished while in america
http://www.goarchie.com/aashid/washpeop.html
"THE WASHITAW PEOPLE
The Oldest Indigenous Peoples On Earth
The Washitaw de Muu & The Washitaw de Dugdahmoundyah
WASHITAW MUURS - THE ORIGINAL AMA-ZON WOMEN
On the 2nd of Muu, ( twenty five thousand years ago ), the Washitaw people decided to leave their native land of Muu. Muu had become decadent and power hungry, but the Washitaw were a peaceful, righteous and honorable family. A matriarchal society since the time of the Empress Ismaale'. The Great Amazon warrior of Muu, it is estimated that her reign began some one hundred thousand years ago.The ancient Washitaw were musicians, historians, herbalists and architects. Their reputations reached far and near. After millennia of spiritual and physical wealth and abundance, wars and significant differences began to occur between neighbors. Forbidden technological powers were used to destroy one another.
The Washitaw Empire has been traditionally been ruled by intuitive and spiritual women with the bloodline dating back to "The Great Empress" Ismaale' of Muu Proper.
Empress Ui Ua, the new leader of the Washitaw de 2nd of Muu had very powerful intuitive powers. She saw the impending doom for her homeland (Muu). She began to send the architects and their families East to the Holy Land called Washitaw de Dugdahmoundyah to survey and construct living quarters, business offices, burial chambers and a National Infrastructure for the coming migration of the Washitaw multitudes. Thus, the pyramids and mounds of Washitaw de Dugdahmoundyah (now known as the U.S.A) were constructed. Mounds and pyramids can be found throughout the Ohio Valley, the Tennessee valley, the Mississippi Valley and in the Grand Canyon.
We are the aborigines, or as Lewis and Clark called us, the black and brown, bushy-headed original inhabitants of North America. The Washitaw and Tunica families carry the Emperial bloodline.
The Europeans took control of our lives and forced us to take on the names Washington and Turner.
Washitaw in English is "The Green Land".
In the ancient hieroglyphics of Kemit (Egypt) The Green Land" was Uatchita (the original name for the Nile Delta).
The Washitaw Empire has a legacy of over 100.000 years of rulership by Empresses. Her Majestic Highness Verdiacee Tiara Washitaw-Turner (Tunica) Goston El-Bey is the reigning Empress of the Washitaw Muur Nation. She is the legal heir to the Maison Rouge land grants that were skillfully willed to her great-grandfather Henry Turner, son of the Marquis Maison Rouge.
The Marquis Joseph de Maison Rouge was the child of French nobility who was rescued by the Baron de Bastrop during the French Revolution The King of Spain, uncle of the Maison Rouge made the deal to transport his nephew to the "new world" for fear of his life.
While exiled here in Washitaw de Dugdahmoundyah, the Marquis married into the Emperial family of the Washitaw. Being a knight in the order of the religion of St. John, his marriage could never be accepted by the Roman Catholic church.
Henry Turner was the child of the Marquis de Maison Rouge and the Empress Ayahmareeyah. After the Marquis' death, Henry Turner recovered all the titles to his father's land.
Empress Delphi Kimm Washington-Washitaw (1849-1966) reigned during the turbulent years of legal land reclamation.
Many accounts confuse us as descendants of the Mongolians and Siberians who invaded from across the Bering Strait. Yet our oral traditions tell us we have been in Washitaw de Dugdahmoundyah for at least 25, 000 years and we fought long and bitter wars against those killing machines from the east. When the white man arrived the wars were 2000 years old. The European (the White Man), the Mongolian and Siberian (later known as the Red Man) joined forces to attempt the complete destruction and obliteration of the Black and Brown Washitaw and Tunica people. The Great War goes on to this day.
We black and brown and white and red people living right here on this land must wake up to the lies that have encrusted us with totally fabricated misinformation as a foundation for all the assumptions that we as human beings instinctively make.
The Name of this land called The United States of America is Washitaw de Dugdahmoundyah
We the black people of North America are predominantly Washitaw, the Ancient Moundbuilders. The most famous mound site in the Washitaw Proper is for some reason called Poverty Point a name I'm quite sure the ancients didn't put on it. The mound is shaped like a bird with extended wings. Standing over 75 feet high, it is the second largest earthen mound in North America (Washitaw de Dugdahmoundyah).
The Empress took me on a guided tour of Poverty Point and it was a deeply moving experience and since that day she and I have become very good friends. We have spent hundreds of hours talking about the Washitaw Empire and it's political, spiritual and cultural aspects. When you are in the presence of the Empress Verdiacee you can feel that vast and ancient flow of eternal energy."

Quite interesting. However, the phenotype (that incorporates broad noses, kinky hair, large lips and protruding maxillas) equals Negroid in many people's eyes, any way you cut it. |

so i guess telling the truth is trying to validate and blackenize other folks....really you should read more about the aborigines and how they are NOW grouped. Read up on their languages and how they link to those in africa. In fact LOOK at them...what do they look liek to you. go visit that thread called black diversity and tell me what the aborigines look like to you and im not jsut talking about skin color. Take a good look at their facial features.
really there is actually alot of hardcore evidence and PROOF that goes into what im saying...no one has to lie about or "blackenize" anyone...it's not a theory...its hard core facts....they are what they are |

The article you post sounds more like mythology than anything else, Misty. But then, the authenticity of history depends on whose telling it. If the primitive Aboriginies are really African in origin, and this has been repressed by white supremists, just what is the lesson here?? |

Folks, Australian Aborigines and black Africans are in reality the two most genetically UNrelated populations known to man. Seriously. Both groups are more closely related to whites (or asians for that matter) than they are to each other. |

I've read about Aboriginal history, ancestry and culture before. The point is, the "black"/"Negroid parallel was in the context of the "U.S. Black"; and the distinguishable separation thereof. I had not clarified such, prior. |

Grind, that's not so....really all groups are related to africans because all groups come from africa but the aborigines are even biologically closer to africans.....read this
“The Negroid race is characterized by brown to brown-black skin, usually a long head form, varying stature, and thick, everted lips. The hair is dark and coarse, usually kinky. The eyes are dark, the nose bridge low, and the nostrils broad. To the Negroid race belong the peoples of Africa south of the Sahara, the Pygmy groups of Indonesia, and the inhabitants of New Guinea and Melanesia.”
http://education.yahoo.com/reference/encyclopedia/entry/race
“Papua New Guinea is thought to have been
settled by three distinct periods of migration
from South-East Asia (5). The present day
Papua New Guinean highlanders are descended
from the first wave – Australoid migrants
arriving in New Guinea and Australia from
Indonesia some 50,000 years ago.
Relatives.”

“If Luzia was indeed Negritoid, it would do away with the somewhat unlikely crossing of the Pacific at such an early date as well as with the enormous return trek by Australians from Australia via Siberia and Alaska into the Americas (a lot of which would have led through their left-behind cousins' hunting territories).There is evidence that both modern Australians and modern Negritos (along with Melanesians, Papuans, Veddoids and some others) come from the same original immigrant stock and are thus distantly related. The wanderings of the Americans-to-be would most likely have taken them along the coast of China and Japan (which was not an island then).”
http://www.andaman.org/BOOK/chapter54/text54.htm
Australoid is a broad racial sub-classification, no longer widely used by anthropologists, of Australasian peoples, most notably the Indigenous Australians. They were described as having dark skin with wavy hair, in the case of Aboriginal Australians, or hair ranging from straight to kinky in the case of Melanesian and Negrito groups. According to this racial classification model, Australoid peoples range from areas of Southeast Asia (particularly the Philippines, Malaysia and Melanesia). The Andamanese, aboriginal inhabitants of the Andaman Islands, display similar phenotypes.

“While the Andamanese are physically similar to African pygmies, they have a distinct language and culture. “

Misty,
While it's true that aborigines and black Africans show some phenotypic likeness, genetic ananlysis shows that the two groups are as unrelated as any on earth. I can't find an online source for this, but the relevant data can be found in this book, which is a highly regarded work on population genetics:

this is a VERY deep topic.
i have some friends who have theories that say that the australian aboriginies are a FAR removed remenant of our people (black americans, west indians etc).
the australian aboriginies had their land stolen, were raped, robbed, and placed on the lowest level of australian society.
the experiences of the australian aboriginies DOES mirror the experiencies of the black american.
the "blacks" of australia were also takes as slaves and removed to other places in the south pacific.
on the other hand, the "blacks" of australia have certain physical characteristics that i just don't see amongst "black americans" (ie. blonde hair, completely straight hair).
also the "blacks" of australia just have a different physical appearence than black americans.
as far as a "negroid racial group" goes. there is NO such thing.
there are various different racial groups on the planet earth that have "dark skin" and a certain "texture" of hair.
on the continent of africa alone there are like 5 or 6 DIFFERENT racial groups that ALL have dark skin.
i feel the "jury is still out" regarding the "blacks of australia", in terms of their relationship to other "dark skin" peoples on the planet earth.
im just not sure about them.
the australin aboriginies are a very interesting group of people. |

Grind, those articles i posted speak for themselves though....the aborigines are very diverse and everything i ever read showed thatthe adamanese aborigines are pretty much biologically identical to those in the darker parts of africa....keeep in mind when i say the aborigines are close to africans in genetics im talking about the majority of africans....yes some africans have wavy to straight hair and light skin but the majority have kinky hair and dark skin. I do realize that its said that whites are more directly related to another african tribe also but that's a minority of africans.
"While it's true that aborigines and black Africans show some phenotypic likeness, genetic ananlysis shows that the two groups are as unrelated as any on earth."
also how can this be true that everyone is unrelated when we all come from africa?

"i have some friends who have theories that say that the australian aboriginies are a Far removed remenant of our people (black americans, west indians etc)."
according to the biologists and paleontologists aborigines are just another group that decended from africa. the only difference is they didnt change as much in terms of physical and biological features as did whites and asians. so they tend to look closer to the majority of africans than these other "races"
"the australian aboriginies had their land stolen, were raped, robbed, and placed on the lowest level of australian society.
the experiences of the australian aboriginies DOES mirror the experiencies of the black american.
the "blacks" of australia were also takes as slaves and removed to other places in the south pacific. "
all of this is very true
"on the other hand, the "blacks" of australia have certain physical characteristics that i just don't see amongst "black americans" (ie. blonde hair, completely straight hair)."
true BUT they do have features that you see in africa such as the straight to wavy hair. also remmeber albinos exist everywhere and they usually tend to have blonde to sandy colored hair. Africa has the highest rate of albinism. another thing to keep in mind is that there are plenty aborigines with NAPPY hair who look no different from africans...ill post some pictures of them.
"also the "blacks" of australia just have a different physical appearence than black americans."
well some of them do but not all...and even the oens who look different from blacks the difference is only VERY slight.
as far as a "negroid racial group" goes. there is NO such thing.
well this is true but i was using those articles as a point since everyhting is now defined in racial terms. race doesnt exist biologically and there is also not truely a such thing as caucazoid or australoid either.....but since we use racial terms so much you have to ahve something to go on. The fac tis though the aborigines line up closer to the majority of africans (not all but the majority).
"there are various different racial groups on the planet earth that have "dark skin" and a certain "texture" of hair."
but theyre not really races anyway...theyre jsut grouped as different races.
"on the continent of africa alone there are like 5 or 6 DIFFERENT racial groups that ALL have dark skin. "
i use to think that too that hundreds of racial groups exist but i can no longer back that theory up because all humans (rather african or eurpean) come from the same part of africa.
"the australin aboriginies are a very interesting group of people."
i agree they are |

"also how can this be true that everyone is unrelated when we all come from africa?"
Misty,
Genetic relatedness is, well, relative. All humanity shares a common African ancestor some 100-200K years ago, but since then we've all branched out in different directions and some of these of branches are closer to some than to others. It's like if you looked at a family tree that started with one couple 200 years ago and today they have thousands of descendants: the descendants are not all equally related to each other. The tree is composed of many branches and the people on one branch are more closely related to one another than they are to everyone else on the tree. Genetic distance between and within species is estimated by looking at the DNA of the groups under comparison and measuring their disimilarity. By this method various black African groups have been shown to be much more genetically similar to each other than to the rest of humanity, yet quite disimilar to Aborigines--in fact more disimilar than any two groups on earf. |
