Herodotus on Ancient Africa: There is no Sub-Saharan

This podcast does an excellent job of dispelling the myth that the Sahara was ever a natural impermeable barrier to Blacks routinely crossing through continental Africa to/from the Mediterranean Sea and Northern regions of the continent in antiquity.

The argument that ancient/classical Africans can be and/or were magically grouped into Northern or white Africans and Sub Saharan or black Africans betrays ignorance of geography, history, biology and politics.
