Thanks Guys! I’ve never doubt educated black people whenever they talk about the Africans or the black communities. Fifty years ago when Ethiopians kid was asked his background and he said he is Israelite. The whole Africans and Black communities anger was overwhelming! Every one assumes Ethiopians aren’t black or don’t want to associate with black! The truth is that there is huge differences between Jewish and Israelites. Israelites were black Melanin people like Ethiopians. However the last two thousands years Jewish or five twelve Israelites dispersed into every corner of the continent. Today there is one phenotype Israelites’! Lately there are bunches of people questioning our blackness! It just annoys almost every Ethiopians as well as Africans. We’ve two national anthem. It’s not exact translation but one is called Africa our mother Land and the second oh Ethiopia my country the symbol of freedom & the pride of all blacks!

Your historical facts are wrong. Kushites are not Semites. The Semites of Axum, Ethiopia & Abyssinia aren't same as kushitic groups in the East-North African region from Egypt to Kenya. It is religious bias or westernized version of reality. Abyssinia is the tribe of Habesh of Bahardar & Tigre of Maqale in Semitic terminology often arabic. Abesh, Abex, Abyss is exotified by Portugese, then other European Christians for a reason known to many. But modern day Ethiopia and Abyssinia of middle ages are different. Abyssinians are new entity that came 2000 years ago. Its a Semite minority not those who built Pyramids of Sudan. Not those who are called Kushites. But small minority armed contantly by westerners like Liberia for religious zealotry. 95% of Kushites live around these regions and from Aswan of Egypt to Mombasa of Kenya being 85% of Ethiopia like Oromo, Somali, Afar, Wollo, Sidama, Omotic, Mursi, Rendille & millions more. So, calm down and stop western religious fetishizing our history!!
