The Swedes were really freaked out after the news came to light that their ancestors will be played by black actors in a new documentary series commissioned by their public television - thus with the Swedish taxpayers' money - and to be shown in the fall.
Historien om Sverige (History of Sweden) is the Swedish state media company's largest history program to date, which is planned for ten parts, with viewers sitting in front of the screens for an hour each. It is planned to present the history of the Nordic country from the Ice Age onwards, but it is historically discredited, to put it mildly, that the main roles were assigned to actors of African origin.
The preview shown on Swedish public television caused intense emotions, because the series' basis,
In the 11-part scientific book written by Herman Lindqvist, there is not a single mention of "Afro-Swedes".
The producers based the selection of actors of color on the still unproven, rather weak theory that belongs to the woke category, according to which the first people to populate Scandinavia were darker-skinned than today's people, completely ignoring the Germanic (Indo-Aryan) origin. theory.
The theory of "Afro-Swedish" origin is popularized by the left in Scandinavia, even though there is no concrete evidence to support it
Although we are well aware that in the enlightened, progressive (woke) world, scientific facts are of secondary or even multiple importance compared to emotions, it is important to note:
biology, including genetics, does not allow it.
It is enough just to look at the Sami people (better known as Lapps), who have preserved their characteristic, ancient features to this day. But hey, science doesn't count for anything in the wake-enlightenment age.
