The Telegraph:
Stonehenge was built by black Britons, a new children’s history book has claimed.
The illustrated book entitled Brilliant Black British History, by the Nigerian-born British author Atinuke, says “every single British person comes from a migrant” but “the very first Britons were black”.
Readers of the newly-released book are told that Stonehenge was built while Britain was “a black country”.
The book, published by Bloomsbury and promoted by Arts Council-funded literacy charity The Book Trust, states that “Britain was a black country for more than 7,000 years before white people came, and during that time the most famous British monument was built, Stonehenge.”
The introduction says that “Britain has been a mostly white country for a lot less time than it has been a mostly black country”.
Atinuke’s book, for readers aged seven-plus, takes the reader through a chronological overview of black people’s presence in Britain, saying that Cheddar Man, the oldest human remains found in Britain, had skin “as dark as dark can be”.
This is what they’re actually trying to hide:

Sure sure, whatever gives you the warm and fuzzies.
The need for constant validation is kinda pathetic.
right before they built wakanda... right???
Sounds like he takes the same drugs as Biteme!
Ships and guns?
They didn’t even have the wheel and were incapable of building anything in straight lines or right angles.
Nigerian-born British author Atinuke, says “every single British person
comes from a migrant” but that “the very first Britons were black”.
He says that the historic Stonehenge was built while Britain was “a black country”.
And Al Sharpton didnt breathe even a single word about it.
ROTFLMAO! Kids are so darn gullible. I heard it was Spinal Tap.
It must be sad to have to invent a history for yourself to feel relevant. Blacks to my knowledge are the only race that cannot legitimately point to any great culture or civilization in the past. So, in turn they have to appropriate others.
Britain can’t let this book be used in schools. It is a total fabrication, but in the hands of dedicated teachers loyal to the cause it will be in a few years accepted by a generation of young Brits as gospel. Somewhere along the line our side needs to quit laughing this stuff off. It is dead serious to the other side, and we can see the results in this country of laughing off what we considered absurdities for the last 20-30 years. Those absurdities have now become the truth in this country.
Totally dreaming dumb-a$$!
I thought it was aliens 👽.
OMG!!! How do you sustain charges of “modern racism today”? You write fiction as history.
Yes, there are have been “blacks” in Britain from further back than the modern era. But “blacks” were not in the populations of Britain at the time of stonehenge or earlier.
The earliest “blacks” in the British Isles came with the Roman legions. Not that much is known or written about how many stayed in the Bristish Isles and became part of the local population.
Much later on from the 11th century and before the formalized European “slave trade”, there are different reports of “blacks” among the British population. If they were truly “black” as opposed to merely being from Africa, particulary north Africa from Egypt to Morrocco (which was never predominately “black” is uncertain. The terms “Moor”, “Saracen”, “Blackamoor” (a “dark skiined person not from Europe), seemed to have been labels thrown around about people who came from al parts of North African.
What the modern world has done in a great disservice to history is conflated the descriptor “African” to mean “black” which is an error both historically and at present.
Go to Google maps satellite view.
You see crop fields from south Florida to northern Alberta, from Ireland all the way to Mongolia.
Now look at Africa. Fields all along the Nile in Egypt.
Now try to find an organized field south of the Sahara. Good luck with that.
Commies love to rewrite history.

Your momma built Stonehenge.
"BLACKAMOOR" was often used, way back when ( in the British Isles ), to refer to peoples from the Levant ( Middle East ) and NEVER to Negros!
When Shakespeare wrote OTHELLO, the lead in that play was NOT an African Negro,but a Middle Easterner.
Ancient Roman writers and a bit more modern ones, who called Cleopatra "dusky", were saying that her skin type was not as as pale as Scandinavians, Gauls ( the early French an early Germanic tribes ), or Brits.
Hakeem Jeffries' uncle, Leonard Jeffries, was the crazy prof who got the whole, VERY racist, garbage about how Cleopatra and everyone who ever did anything great were "black" and that the whites "STOLE" the knowledge and inventions from black Africans, back in the early 1970s. By the early 1990s, he and his works were discredited, laughed at, sued, and fired from CCNY.
And Cheedar Man may have had darker skin than what we think of re Caucasians, he had blue eyes and didn't look Negroid at all!
