Des scientifiques ont recréé le visage de la reine Néfertiti, les « afrocentristes » en colère crient au complot et estiment que les Égyptiens anciens étaient noirs

Grâce à la reconstruction faciale et l’ADN, des scientifiques sont parvenus à recréer le visage de la reine Néfertiti, l’épouse du grand pharaon Akhenaton.

World, meet King Tut’s mother and likely the true face of #Nefertiti! First discovered in 1898, the badly damaged mummy of the so-called “Younger Lady” sits in the Egyptian museum. Through 3D imaging and forensic reconstruction, she lives again. #ExpeditionUnknown @travelchannel pic.twitter.com/gQkGOY4oq2

Nefertiti was not white. She was very dark.

Don't believe the lies #BlackTwitter. THIS is what #Nefertiti looked like. White history is inundated with lies & deception. pic.twitter.com/T3CiWa7IPC

I’ll never understand why white people feel a need to rewrite history & take what they didn’t create. Just tell the Truth…

— BillyABSTRACT (@BillyABSTRACT) February 5, 2018

She doesn’t look very Egyptian…

— Allison Britt (@iMakeArtifacts) February 5, 2018

Ancient Egyptians were more closely related to Europeans. Modern day Egyptians look like the Arabs that conquered after the time of the pharaohs, mixed with Sub-Saharan Africans they enslaved in large numbers.

— Harold T. Ogden (@GennethKrant) February 5, 2018

This is inaccurate.

  Outstanding rebuttal! I hope it gets published in Nature, the world’s most prestigious science journal! https://t.co/Kcgsl9Trae

— Harold T. Ogden (@GennethKrant) February 5, 2018

They’re lying if they’re saying these people were anything but black. Look at the REAL sculptures and drawings from the time period and it will easily disprove this nonsense. Egypt is in Africa. ALL of Africa’s natural inhabitants were black.

H&M used a child to advertise a sweatshirt that says "coolest monkey in the jungle."

Over the weekend, social media users claimed that this was racist because monkey is a known racial slur.

H&M apologized on Monday — but some people think that isn't enough.

The item is no longer for sale on the retailer's US website, but it does seem to be available on the UK site for $10.83 (£7.99 GBP) — although it's not shown on a model.

  Over the weekend, H&M was accused of being racist after using a black boy to advertise a sweatshirt that says "coolest monkey in the jungle."

After facing sharp criticism on social media, the brand apologized on Monday and seemed to remove the item from its US website. However, the $10.83 (£7.99 GBP) sweatshirt, is still for sale on H&M's UK site, although it's not shown on a model.

"We sincerely apologize for offending people with this image of a printed hooded top. The image has been removed from all online channels and the product will not be for sale in the United States," a representative for the retailer said in a statement to INSIDER. "We believe in diversity and inclusion in all that we do and will be reviewing all our internal policies accordingly to avoid any future issues."

However, some people said on Twitter that this apology isn't enough and claimed that the brand should've known better, as monkey is a noted racist slur.

H&M has apologised for the model below wearing a "coolest monkey in the jungle" jumper. Do people not stop the person who thought of it and say, "this might not be a good idea?" http://pic.twitter.com/Ag9MHMgs6t

Can’t be more confused and disgusted. H&M decided to put the black boy in a “Coolest Monkey in the Jungle” hoody and the white boy in a “Survival Expert” hoody. Can’t believe it’s 2018 and this offensive sickening racism still exists. We all must boycott H&M till they apologize. http://pic.twitter.com/OdynDKupjS

— BASH (@XIBash) January 8, 2018

It's still fuck H&M and their fake ass apology. Their racist asses knew what they were doing with this disgusting "coolest monkey in the jungle" ad. Even their "apology" is strategic racism. Right wingers will now rally around them and buy their shitty clothes.

— October the Poet (@Prose_n_politcs) January 8, 2018

H&M thought this Ad was cool. Tagline: Coolest Monkey in the Jungle. #Speechless http://pic.twitter.com/L8apI6uI7Y

It’s no accident that the black boy had the monkey jacket. Not at all. H&M can kick rocks... http://pic.twitter.com/8tWYcUjaxv

— TheGrandeDame (@Itsonlyreal) January 8, 2018

It's unclear at this time if H&M plans to address these claims.  

H&M isn't the only brand that has recently been accused of racially insensitive practices. In December 2017, American Eagle was called out for selling metal bracelets that resembled slave shackles. Earlier, in October 2017, Dove was accused of being racist over an ad in which a black woman appeared to turn herself white.

Twitter Users Are Roasting Kim Kardashian for This Shoe Design

Yesterday, Kim Kardashian took to social media to share pieces from her latest Kids Supply drop, scheduled for Monday. One piece, however, was met with instant opposition: Nude Akid faux fur slides, which Twitter users thought resembled Rihanna’s Fenty x Puma faux fur slides. Another Akid collab with nude faux fur slides https://t.co/BlGB6KQnnV http://pic.twitter.com/zHxtS2vkpP — Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) September 14, 2017 Rihanna’s Fenty x Puma Slide Some Twitter users replied to Kardashian’s Tweet by posting images and GIFs of Rihanna’s faux fur slides. http://pic.twitter.com/mnueNgrhvx — asvpx (@xo_lanafenty) September 14, 2017 http://pic.twitter.com/dyonhwGEcN — Elii ParkByunMEX (@EligiaMunoz) September 14, 2017 Others went a less subtle route, writing that Kardashian stole Rihanna’s designs. Twitter users also noted a past incident in which Kylie and Kendall Jenner, Kardashian’s younger sisters, were sued for Kendall + Kylie T-shirt designs that used pictures of artists, including Tupac and Ozzie Osbourne, without permission. Kim, your family has been known for stealing designs, makeup ideas etc but you guys keep going, are u guys trying to purposely make enemies? — Lilith (@almacinica) September 14, 2017 Y'all whole family stealing from Rihanna lol https://t.co/xOcwfkYZMb — .
