Anew Swedish program on the country's history is being scrutinized due to portrayals by actors of different ethnicities.

The History of Sweden will be broadcast this fall on Sweden's tax-funded state TV channel Sveriges Television AB (SVT) after nearly three years of production, described by The Nordic Times as the network's biggest ever historical venture.

Criticism has followed the arc of the project, however, due to Black and Middle Eastern actors front and center in previews. Some claim that their appearance is part of revisionist history and not following proper science or history, and some view it as a major slight towards white Europeans of Nordic descent.

The series reportedly documents the history of Sweden dating back to the Ice Age, all the way to the present.

"As part of the mass media and political campaign for continued mass immigration to Sweden, it has become increasingly common in recent years to claim that Sweden has always been multi-ethnic and that the early Swedes did not in fact look anything like today's light-skinned Swedes—but more like sub-Saharan Africans—an 'educational campaign' spearheaded by SVT itself," The Nordic Times wrote in an editorial in June.

We have shown that caution must be taken if Swedes from the northernmost counties are included in a population-based genetic study, since they differ genetically from southern Swedes and also amongst themselves. Genetic patterns do not necessarily follow national borders and substantial genetic differences may be detectable within a country.

 Interesting! This passed me completely by, since I don't live in sweden, day to day. I vaguely remember my father watching an episode or two, but he found it quite thin and too popularized, so he went back to his history books instead.

That kind of cursory dismissal is precisely what it deserved.
I despise the woke mind virus.

As for the black cavemen, the argument is that apparently the original cavemen from the south had darker skin, but later cavemen from the east came to sweden with whiter skin, and in the end, they achieved supremacy, and hence our modern very beautiful white skin!

So in the end it all worked out.
But of course there would be darker skinned migrants, such is the nomadic nature of our responses to interglacial periods.
I just reject that they were Saharan, but one can't say for certain.

The danger these days though, is that we have imported new cavemen from the middle east, again with darker skin, so we'll see who will prevail in the end. =/

I am put in mind of the Mormons' earlier doctrinal chastening to native cultures to become a "white and delightsome" entity.
There seem to be many more forces that wish actual whiteness away now.
That is disturbing, as ethnic cleansings go.

For much of its history, the Salt Lake City-based LDS Church edition of the Book of Mormon taught that dark-skinned Lamanites (Indians) would eventually experience a change in the color of their skin should they embrace the Book of Mormon. Except for a single edition (1840), 2 Nephi 30:6 has read:
“…their scales of darkness shall begin to fall from their eyes; and many generations shall not pass away among them, save they shall be a white and a delightsome people.”
In 1981, the LDS Church decided to change what Joseph Smith called “the most correct of any book on earth” by reverting to the wording of the lone 1840 edition. The word “white” was replaced with the word “pure.” Some Mormons insist that this was a clarification since the word was never meant to refer to a person with dark skin pigmentation who would magically turn white based upon a conversion to the Mormon gospel; rather, it is claimed that the change referred to a cleaner state of heart. This assumption fails to explain (or counter) other passages in the Book of Mormon that still make a connection with “iniquity” and skin color. For example, 2 Nephi 5:21 still says:
“And he had caused the cursing to come upon them, yea, even a sore cursing, because of their iniquity. For behold, they had hardened their hearts against him, and they had become like unto a flint; wherefore, as they were white, and exceedingly fair and delightsome, that they might not be enticing unto my people the Lord God did cause a skin of blackness to come upon them.”
Third Nephi 2:12-15 continues to teach that dark-skinned Lamanites who converted unto the Lord had their curse “taken from them, and their skin became white like unto the Nephites.”
