Last week, Egyptian comedian Bassem Youssef hopped on Piers Morgan’s show uncensored on which he got into a heated debate with Ernest Ownes.<\/p>\n
Bassem claimed that Hollywood has always had an agenda of falsifying Egyptian history and relating it to other civilizations which in return, erases the Egyptian Identity.<\/p>\n
He also affirmed the fact that Hollywood has been trying to erase the Egyptian identity by casting non-Egyptian actors to portray Egyptian figures which causes inaccuracies to be introduced.<\/p>\n
Bassem stressed the fact that Black Africans have their own wonderful civilizations that they need to own, instead of claiming the Egyptian one to be theirs.<\/p>\n
