Following the release of the trailer for Netflix's new series "Queen Cleopatra," produced by Jada Pinkett Smith, wife of Will Smith, a petition to cancel the show has gained significant traction online. Over 60,000 people have already signed the petition, which calls for the cancellation of the show due to concerns surrounding historical inaccuracies and cultural appropriation.

Critics argue that the series, which chronicles the life of the last pharaoh of ancient Egypt, Cleopatra VII, is riddled with historical inaccuracies that perpetuate misconceptions about the real origin of the Queen. The contentious series has spurred heated discussions on social media about historical revisionism, racism, supremacism, and ethnicity. Additionally, concerns have been raised about the casting of the main character, with some arguing that the actress chosen to play Cleopatra is not representative of the historical figure's ethnicity.

The destruction and falsification of history is one of the most evil things I can think of and offends me to the core.

Cleopatra was Greek af and the Ptolmeys had been ruling Egypt from Alexandria (named after his Whiteness Alexander the Great) for like 9 or 10 generations.

There were no African roots of ancient OR modern Egypt.

There was one nigger dynasty who lasted 100 years and then forcibly removed.
