I am a black African from Sub-Saharan Africa. It's essential to acknowledge that the diverse and rich history of our continent cannot be oversimplified or altered to correct historical wrongs towards black people. Such attempts overlook the need for genuine understanding and appreciation of our unique cultural and historical experiences. As black Africans, our sense of importance and identity does not hinge on these revisions. It is crucial to let history stand as it is, recognizing its complexities and truths, rather than reshaping it for superficial rectification.

As a Lebanese guy, with 93% of my blood tracing back to Iron Age Phoenician with little foreign influence in me. It's a shame to see hollywood portray Hannibal, a guy from the city of Tyre which I came from on my mother's side (She's a Syriac Orthodox Christian from Tyre.) as a sub-saharan person who has absolutely nothing to do with the Afroasiatic family let alone the Semitic family or Bane Tsur (Tyre) 𐤁‏𐤍‏𐤉‏ 𐤑‏𐤓‏, hell if they wanted to bring a black actor they should've atleast brought a Black Semite (Like an Ethiopian or something.) But they straight up went with tyrone from chicago who descends from the congo. Btw, this is like getting a chinese actor to play as an indian king (because boohoo they're both part of the same continent of Asia!) Funnier part, Hannibal was a person that descended from Barca, a guy who accompanied Dido from Tyre, the city I come from to north Africa, to build the new city also known as Qart Hadasht or 𐤒‏𐤓‏𐤕‏ 𐤇‏𐤃‏𐤔‏𐤕‏. So if anything, Hannibal was not even AFRICAN let alone Black. Hannibal was a Phoenician Semite (Arguably one of the lightest Semitic groups you could pick out, for example I have pure pale white skin with semitic curly ash brown hair and amber eyes, and an aquiline nose. I'm positive I have 0 Indo-European in me, I'm native to Lebanon, and 100% positive i have no foreign dna.) So if anything, they should've atleast casted someone from tunisia, lebanon, or like any Arab and I'd be fine with that. But the problem is that they are bringing someone who is completely unrelated with the Semitic people, let alone the afro asiatic people; with 0 phenotypic relation to Semitic People (We have slimmer longer noses than them, and a caucasoid skull, and come in all colors. Whilst they come usually black, with wide flat noses, and a sub-saharan skull.) Hell it was even stated that the ancient Phoenicians and ancient Hebrews could not even be told apart from Greeks and Romans phenotypically speaking, because we're all CAUCASIAN and Mediterranean. Hollywood cannot put the fact that Caucasians and Non-Caucasians are more different to each other than caucasians are to one another. Side note: sorry for my bad English, not my native language eitherway. Edit: After finishing this video, I saw that there's many wrongs here. First of all, barca was not seen as an outsider by the senate, but was seen as too vengeful and too daring by the senate, hence why they weren't fond of him. Second of all, the Barcas did not come from greece; it is a clear semitic surname referring to lightning "Baraq" "𐤁𐤓𐤒," Hannibal was a Semite, he was an elite of the carthaginian senate and the carthaginian elites rarely intermixed with non-phoenicians. Saying the Barcids are berber or whatever other race is like saying the Ptolemaic Dynasty were Egyptian and not Macedonian greek.

We even know there were blacks in the Roman army ig Saint Maurice of Thebes who’s grave can be found in Switzerland. we have depictions and actually written records. We even have several coins depicting a subsaharan found in northern Italy in sites he was known to have camped in. This is just narrow mined thinking. Why were Europeans this bothered about accurate representation when they were making films about ancient Egypt and pre colonial African civilisations during the 20th century?
