Nicholas Taleb (author of the Black Swan) recently got into an argument with a retarded historian called Mary Beard about this very subject. Beard asserted that a "typical family" in Roman Britain included a black father, Taleb proved her wrong with population genetics. Beard got butthurt and her liberal acolytes started harassing Taleb, but Taleb, being a med HOT HEAD didn't give a fuck and continued trolling them all.

His main point was that "diversity" in Roman settings should primarily be about med people and western/northern european people, and shouldn't really include blacks at all - since they were few and far between.

>On another occasion, when he was returning to his nearest quarters from an inspection of the wall at Luguvallum in Britain, at a time when he had not only proved victorious but had concluded a perpetual peace, just as he was wondering what omen would present itself, an Ethiopian soldier, who was famous among buffoons and always a notable jester, met him with a garland of cypress-boughs.

The same thing happened with that idiot Paul Jospeh Watson and even bigger idiot on twitter.

The Bigger Idiot "totally destroyed" the smaller idiot by demonstrating that an extremely small percentage of the Roman population occupying Britain contained North African lineage - there for Roman Britain was filled with sub-saharan Africans.

Speaking as a Greek (in before Turk rapebaby etc), this is the end result of letting them into your country and basically handing over your identity to them. Now they can claim British literature and culture in its entirety, from Bede to Shakespeare to Conan-Doyle, while also holding on to their racial identity - while conversely you guys can't adopt a racial identity of your own since anything exclusive to it has been appropriated (quite literally) by this wave of "new Brits" and their "civic identity".

I've always noticed it's always the worst races who demand that they be accepted as "one of the natives", and in spite of this, they're always the most dysfunctional, the least like what we non western-europeans would imagine as a real Englishman etc.

Just isolate yourself from this shit culture in its entirety.

Really? I am Greek and I can clearly see there's a bigger gap between casting a Western European actor/actress and casting a full on sub-saharan black. Of course we'd like to see more Greeks/Italians in the cast, but it's not a big deal - if you have 50% of the cast as Black Africans then it is downright insulting.

Pic related, Greek-Canadian actress. Could easily pass for French or British.
>>
>>86345846

>I don't see the difference.

So there would be no difference between a western Romance of the Three Kingdoms production casting a few Japanese and Korean actors and a western production making 50% of the cast, including all of the sworn brothers, as Nigerians?

>>86346045
>Also, I do get annoyed whenever something roman isn't done by Meds.

No one here gives a fuck, honestly. We expect a British production to feature a prevalence of Anglos, but making Zeus and Achilles and Patroclus black is just insulting.

Would have been cool to have an Italian as Aeneas though.
>>
>>86346045

I find the British accent thing hilarious, but I see why they did it when the audineces were mostly Anglo.

Helps you distinguish between types of people (Cockney or Northern accents for plebs and barbarians, RP for dignified or civlized people etc).

It was weird when they made a point to mention that Maximus in Gladiator was Spanish, but they didn't really distinguish him in any way from the other Wogs.

nah that's your culture appropriating ass speaking, you know like the thing you're complaining about?
If it's not race accurate in the first place, why you care? It's not even your british culture that's being threatened. But just because the renaissance was influenced by ancient Greece you've made it part of Western Culture and you're being personally offended.Hypocrisy to the max, claiming the achievement of another civilazation as your own. Every ancient greek's spiritual trip was to Egypt not Manchester.
Finally, good actors can do justice to the characters they're playing no matter the race, age or gender. Would you believe that the female parts were being played by men in ancient Greece? Damn this not accurate casting!

It doesn't make sense for Aeneas to be black
His mom, Aphrodite, is white, and Priam is white. Aeneas's dad Anchises is the half brother of Priam, so at most Aeneas would be 25% black. But that also doesn't make sense. For that to work Anchises mom Capys would have to be 100% black. Her dad was the son of the founder of Troy, whose lineage leads to Priam, so he can't be black, and her mom was a naiad, and daughter of a River God. Am I supposed to believe a river God and a naiad are black? I don't, but even if they are 100% black that would only make Aeneas 12.5% black. I DONT FUCKING THINK SO.

>nah that's your culture appropriating ass speaking

I am Greek. I'm not sure what you want me to say?

We don't identify with you dude. It's true that a lot of Greeks are kind of butthurt towards just about everyone ("us against the world") but most Greeks genuinely believe themselves to be white/european and identify as such, and as a result we'd rather our history be associated with other European actors than Black actors, if it comes down to a choice between the two.

>But just because the renaissance was influenced by ancient Greece you've made it part of Western Culture

It was always a part of Western Culture.

Roman law, the use of Latin and Greek as lingua franca in parts of Europe, the impact of Greek philosophy on Christianity, the impact of Greek art and architecture... All of these things are Medieval, not Renaissance.

>Every ancient greek's spiritual trip was to Egypt not Manchester.

lol @ accepting a snippet of Herodotus as bona fide truth when you've never read him in translation, let alone in classical Greek.

>Finally, good actors can do justice to the characters they're playing no matter the race, age or gender.

That's right. That's why we should perform RottK with a 50% nordic cast.

>Rome had so much diversity, and it wasn't because of the Nordics, but because Sabini, Latini, Etruschi, Umbri and so many more different people lived in the zone.

I'm speaking in broad strokes here. When Taleb say "med" he means all of the Italic peoples plus mountain berbers, near eastern people like Phoenicians etc.

Even within the Celts there is a lot of diversity. That is something that could be explored.

Also there is an Ethiopian hero in the Iliad, no one would care if a black guy had been cast in that role. But they decided to blackwash half of the Greek pantheon instead.

Blacks as a hunter-gatherer group were few in population in those times, especially around the Sub-Saharan areas where climate makes it impossible to thrive in terms of population numbers.
To argue there were blacks in those times anywhere near Anatolia when they were isolated by the Sahara, when their numbers were mostly congregated towards the Central-Western parts of Africa and some Eastern parts far away from the meds where climate and nature allowed larger population sustenance; is to argue from a perspective of not only historical ignorance, but also ignorance of all DNA archeology and tracing, science itself, as well as basic logic and critical thinking.
Takes a complete cerebral shutdown.

The funny thing is, the only blacks who had contact with classical civilisations like Greece and Rome didn't even look like the nignogs that were depicted in that BBC documentary. They were described as like Indians in appearance but with curly hair, and they lived in North East Africa. They were modern day Ethiopians and Northern Sudanese, who are genetically and culturally different to West African descendants in the New World. It's like a Torres straight islander claiming east Asian history, just because they share an ocean.

m8 our memories of the last decade of global politics is a confused mess. 99% of people couldn't tell you what the Arab Spring was, or what countries American troops are fighting wars in right now, or what really happened to JFK or what really kicked off WW1.

intellectual laziness combined with apathy combined with enormous amounts of misinformation and propaganda makes our conceptions of the world very easily to manipulate. and if we don't know our history we do not know who we are, and where we should be going. 30 years ago Americans would have burnt cities down to prevent the Patriot Act, but here we are.

I'm not trying to annoy you, but I think more apathy in whites is a good thing. Too many screeching white women and their beta, enabling men rally for faggot causes.

Whites need to go apathetic-isolationist for a while and leave the world stage instead of being the go-to punching bag for every single shitskins minor problem.

If the colored masses want to cosplay as vikings or romans or fucking hitler, it really doesn't matter in the long run, too much has been preserved in the Western Canon by people far more invested in correct historical preservation than you or I.

The people living in Athens had little to no contact with people living in Rhodes. That's like saying people in the middle ages were Germans when Germany didn't exist until the 19th century.

>the population living in Anatolia has changed a lot in the last few millenia with so many migrations.

No it hasn't. The picture that emerges from population genetics the world over is that there has, in most places, been very little change to the original neolithic settlers. There are exceptions, but in the case of Anatolia you're talking about a region of about 10,000,000 people circa 1000AD settled by, max, 100,000 Turks, many of whom weren't pure Turkic anyway because of Persian admixture.

The belief in a pure Turkic descent thing is a post-Ataturk LARP designed to bring cohesion to a nation that was basically "people who didn't identify with any of the post-Ottoman states".

You're overestimating the numerical impact of these peoples. Everything you are questioning is answered by the simple fact that something like 97% of all people on the Eurasian landmass lived a sedentary existence of some kind (90-95% subsistence farming / the remainder being tradesmen).

The actual _numbers_ of sword wielding nomads and international merchants were comparatively tiny.

Different European ethnicites are often interchangeable physically. Colin Farrell could pass as a Greek in Greece with complete ease, as one example.

Actually they didn't. The MSM was fairly unanimous in its panning of the choice as "dis-privileging Asian American acting talent. If by "people" you mean randoms online, then yes, I'd agree, but don't pretend there's the same level of elite-level controversy caused by blackwashing as there is by putative "white washing".

Blackwashing is never criticized by the mainstream, not even once.

>Japanese people shouldn't have to cast anglos in a Romeo and Juliet play.

No, they should cast Japanese. Likewise, British should cast Whites. Britain is a White nation.

if the people of Mogadishu had the wherewithal to scrape together the means and the desire to put on a show of Hamlet I wouldn't expect them to cast a bunch of Danes.

this thread is mostly just proxy for getting angry at multiculturalism. people taking work from across the world and reworking it in their own way is perfectly standard and fine human behaviour. but an English production making Zeus and the progenitor of Romulus black is a sign of the end times to the Englishman. it means that English media is no longer just English.

In de facto terms? Yes it is. It's an adaptation that is played fairly straight (as opposed to say, the Brad Pitt adaptation of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, which wasn't at all and thus could be afforded more liberties). When a classical production is played straight, I expect it to be all-white unless historical accuracy calls for the inclusion of non-whites, e.g. Memnon is an explicitly non-white character and should be played by an Afro-Semite.

I'm a Southern European. Nordicism holds no interest to me, but the broader identity to which I belong is "white" (which is essentially shorthand vernacular for "of European descent"). My civilization is European, my religion is Near Eastern and European, my history is a mish-mash of different European polities, my language is Indo-European in origin, the people who have come to my country's aid in the past have all been European.

What exactly do you want me to do? Pretend to be black to get on-board with some retarded DNC big-tent anti-white movement that American "PoC" invented for themselves?

Nobody is, the cost of actually procuring some basic level of security today is higher than it was in the 1900s. Any net gains made from mass immigration are immediately nullified by the gigantic demand-side pressures it creates on real estate markets.

>Nordicism holds no interest to me
Why is that?
I'm suggesting that you don't fall on the PoC/white false dichotomy as you're doing right now because as you say in your own words, it is retarded and historically inaccurate. Europe shares common values,language origins etc but it consists of diverse cultures and civilizations that shouldn't be mashed up as one.
>>
>>86354108
>and civilizations that shouldn't be mashed up as one.

There is one, single western civilization. The fact we're all so equally vulnerable to arguments from emotion vis a vis refugees regardless of whether we are Italians, Germans, Greeks or even Balts is a good illustration of this.

Western Civilization consists of three things:

>Greek philosophy (and aesthetics/art).
>Roman/Germanic law.
>Christianity.

Now you can subdivide from within that, for example there's a "Slavic Sphere", or an "Orthodox Sphere", but they still have the same common roots. What Byzantium transmitted to Kievan Rus for example was essentially 1, 2 and 3. In a more mediated way than the WRE's successor states inherited, because it was later on of course.

Another reason I'm very assertive about a "European identity" is because it's ironically harder for a non-white person to subvert it, as its more implicitly racial than the various national identities, which have been cucked by confused and muddled ideas about propositional identities.
