What Garvey believed about Egypt was not quite true. However, there was a more important grain of truth in Garvey’s assertion, but he was not aware of it as the science did not emerge until the latter part of the 20th century. Specifically, all humans today genetically had a common Black ancestor in Africa. In that sense, at one point, there were no other humans but Blacks, and they certainly ruled their world.

The Pharoh of Egypt, Ptolemy was a white Greek—one of the Generals of Alexander the Great, (for whom Alexandria was named) and Cleopatra was descended from him and more traditional Egyptians.
