WATCH: Egyptologist Casually Disusses Cover-Up with Joe Rogan

In just one minute of this video, from 7:34 to 8:34, John Anthony West casually and jokingly discusses covering up an essential truth about ancient Egypt (Kemet), and how such practices are a given in academic and public circles.

Discussion Question for Comments:  Why is such a cover-up taken for granted?  Why is ancient Egypt still significant today?  And why does an African identity affect that?
