The irony is, by re-imagining Cleopatra as leader who derived power from physicality instead of diplomacy, the writers are inadvertently reinforcing the stereotype that "masculine" problem-solving supersedes "feminine" negotiation. In other words, they're implying that if you want to be a powerful woman, act like a man.

You're so right. I noticed this too. It's so weird that for a long time cleopatra was portrayed as a hyperfeminine queen who only used her looks where as now she's a more masculine stereotypical fighter. And both perspectives leave out how much of an educated, diplomatic and skilled negotiator she was.

I love how even despite praising Cleopatra, they're also downgrading her by making her able to fight. Cleopatra is literally one of history's most famous femme fatale, someone who uses her charm, intelligence and power to make others do things for her. She's more like the Lady Macbeth but we can't acknowledge a strong female character without making her a 'girlboss'. Cleopatra was an Egyptian ruler, she didn't need to fight. Strength doesn't have to come from their capability of fighting.

Demoting such an incredibly complex and powerful female figure into your typical Mary Sue simply reveals Jada's lack of skill and talent in production.

It is just like someone making a biopic of Gandhi some time in future showing him as a pale white Irish person. It is just not possible.

Yes she was of Greek origin, but Cleopatra's father was Ptolemy XII, but he was illegitimate, his mother is not recorded. Cleopatra became Pharaoh upon his death. There is no definitive record of her mother or Grandmother, even if some historians say her mother was Cleopatra V. Egyptologist Sally-Ann Ashton who worked on the Netflix shows states, "Cleopatra ruled in Egypt long before the Arab settlement in North Africa", if the maternal side of her family were indigenous women, they would've been African, and this should be reflected in contemporary representations of Cleopatra".

They can be blind because they think they can get away with calling Egyptians 'white supremacists' over the backlash they're getting. They are used to being able to 'cancel' whoever they like and get their apoligies because of the color of their skin. This time around they weren't counting on an entire nation not giving a sh!t and valuing the truth over their feelings. I mean, we're talking about the bunch who thinks being on time, 2+2=4, meritocracy and valuing accuracy are all products of white supremacy.

She knew her grandmother is wrong. This is Professor Shelley Haley. She wrote the following in 1993: "Yet, throughout my college and graduate school experience, buried deep in the recesses of my mind was the voice of my grandmother, Ethel Clemons Haley, saying, “Remember, no matter what you learn in school, Cleopatra was black.” Now where did she get an idea like that? Schooled only as far as the seventh grade, never having learned any foreign language, just a domestic servant, a cook, she obviously had no knowledge about Cleopatra or classics or anything else intellectual . So I, the great teacher, used to tell her about the Ptolemies and how they were Greek and how Cleopatra was a Ptolemy and so she was Greek. At one point I even showed her the genealogical tables of the Cambridge Ancient History. “See,” I said, “Cleopatra was Greek!” ” "

@@rumblefish9 Well, I think on a factual level, she knows Cleaopatra is probably not Black, but at a social justice and family loyalty, I think she feels she has to believe it. You can look up her writings. For example, she later wrote "Why didn’t all the students see the evidence as I did? What did they know that I didn’t? In buying the lie, had I sold out my race?" "I discovered that my Black students and indeed my grandmother read her on a different level. For them and for me, although I suppressed her, Cleopatra was the lost and found window where we could “claim an identity they taught us to despise” "tension between my yearning to fit in among classicists and my identity politics." The way I read what she wrote... she wasn't taking about how historically Cleaopatra can be Greek or Cleaopatra can be Black". She wasn't debating about two historical possibility. She was debating between what is more important? (A) Going with the limited historical evidence that Cleaopatra is Greek and/or Middleeastern" or (B) be loyal to my race and grandmother and bring hope to other black students. The folllowing paragraph is even more clear. Shelley Haley does the following equation. Black Americans are often oppressed. Cleaopatra and Egyptian people is tragic and oppressed person. So we now claim her as Blacks. See, it is an "emotional" equal sign, not a scientific one. Read: "In the Black oral tradition, Cleopatra becomes a symbolic construction voicing our Black African heritage so long suppressed by racism and the ideology of miscegenation . When we say, in general, that the ancient Egyptians were Black and, more specifically, that Cleopatra was Black, we claim them as part of a culture and history that has known oppression and triumph, exploitation and survival. Cleopatra reacted to the phenomena of oppression and exploitation as a Black woman would . Hence we embrace her as sister; she is Black"

Personally, as an Egyptian, I've known since I was a kid that Cleopatra is Greek, and we were taught that she's Greek. None of us have ever tried to claim otherwise because facts are more important than opinions. But somehow, now we're literally living in an era when documentaries are based on someone's grandmother and her bedtime stories.

imo even if it was fiction, race swapping is still just as unacceptable. It doesn't matter from which race to which race they're swapping, if they swap a character's race that imo is one of the worst possible things an adaptation can do to the source material, fiction or not. Taking familiar comic books characters as examples; Dc comic's bruce wayne is white. An adaption where he's a black or asian is simply wrong and is an insult to the source material. marvel comic t'challa is black. An adaption where he's a white or asian is wrong and is an insult to the source material. Imagine making a marvel movie called "White Panther" Where tchalla is a white American. Would you imagine that all these people screaming and crying "so what if ariel is black? what if cleopatra is black? why do you care?" would let it slide and move on? ofc not.

My professional opinion as a Greek: We don't refer to people as "black" and "white" here (and in most of Europe as i know). We refer to people based on their ethnicity (Greek, German, Egyptian, Ethiopian...) Because in most countries the colour of people's skin varies and also culture changes by the country and not by colour

We usually say Greeks,Macedonians,Germans,Arabs,Blacks,the Chinese(SE Asians),Americans,Indians (S Asians). So we refer to Europeans based on ethnicity and others more vaguely based on their skin colour (blacks for Sub-saharan africans)or the most known country of the region they come from.

Origins actually handles it super well. I like how it shows the cultural differences between Bayek of Siwa, from the South of Egypt, who was rightfully portrayed as a Black Egyptian, considering the part of the country he hailed from and the Greeks that resided in the northern cities like Alexandria.

In Indian ancient society, It was better to commit suicide than to cling on to life and be a slave to the conquerors, or running away. So , according to us , Cleopatra was a fighter till death. Every culture has a different definition of giving up and fighting.
