As I’ve explained in a previous post, African people, globally, share a similar narrative when it comes to systemic disenfranchisement. From stolen resources to marginalized ancestors to societal abuse, blacks everywhere are fighting the same fight. So after reading about how African descendants in India are being treated, I knew I had to share the…

WINNIE
Greetings Folks, I was YouTube browsing, as usual, when I came across a documentary about one of the most iconic political figures in history—Winnie Mandela. This 2017 film, entitled WINNIE, takes a look into the freedom struggles of South Africans against Apartheid as well as Mandela’s rise and fall from grace. Her fearlessness and dedication…
Infinite Roots
Greetings Everyone, Have you ever met someone who was just naturally gifted and driven, especially in the field of art? You know, that person who has an eye for creativity? Well, one of my boys fits that description. Check out some of these African-inspired necklaces by Shareef Shabazz. Pretty cool, huh. Shareef is based down…
Book Review
Greetings All, I just finished reading The Destruction of Black Civilization: Great Issues of a Race from 4500 B.C. to 2000 A.D., and I wanted to share my thoughts. Finally, another major obstacle to unity and progress that is hardly ever openly discussed must not only be discussed but attacked in a nationwide program in the…
Tuzini Farms
Greetings All, In a previous post, I expressed my admiration for farmers who take pride in growing natural crops. With the food industry—particularly here in the West—banking off of non-Holistic products, it’s nice to come across men and women who are investing in the health of others. So allow me to spotlight a commercial farmer…
Words From The Wise: Dr. Khalid Abdul Muhammad
“I speak the truth. I speak to the pain and hurt of the masses of Black people. I speak that which many of them wish they could say, that’s why they cheer and applaud. And I speak that also which many of them only whisper behind closed doors.” – Dr. Khalid Abdul Muhammad When…
Peace, Love and Good Wishes
Greetings Everyone, I came across some good news today that I had to share with you all. This story comes out of AfricaNews and CNN. Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and President Isaias Afwerki of Eritrea raised the Eritrean flag together, celebrating the reopening of the Embassy of Eritrea in Ethiopia. The leaders of both countries…
West Papua
Being a student of African history, as I’ve mentioned in a previous post, has sent me all over the world. The knowledge that I’ve received so far has been beneficial to my progression, but it’s regressive at the same time. Why? Because African people, globally, are still facing systemic oppression. Disenfranchised would be an understatement…
Words From The Wise: Mwalimu K. Bomani Baruti
“Sovereignty means that you control everything. Everything is in your power; economics, family, politics, culture, everything is under your control. No one else has anything that you need, they may have a few things that you want, but no one else should have anything that you need to survive. That’s sovereignty.” – Mwalimu K. Bomani…
Voodoo
Greetings Good People, I didn’t have any plans for the day, so I decided to do what I do best: lounge around and browse YouTube. This led me to a very interesting documentary that I had to share with you all. Released in 1993 and directed by Jacques Holender, the film is entitled Voodoo. Its premise is…
Tacky’s Rebellion
Greetings Good People, For those of you who may be new to this blog and aren’t familiar with my posts, I’m a student of African history—which, in essence, is world history. The main reason why is because so much of it has been hidden from the textbooks and whitewashed in our universities, so researching the truth has inadvertently become…
Words From The Wise: Ashra Kwesi
“The secret knowledge and the secret spiritual stories of Kemet has been a fear in the Western Church. The Catholic Church stole many spiritual ideals and wisdom and the salvation and understanding directly from Ancient Egypt. And people like Giordano Bruno, who equally said that ‘Ancient Egypt was the most spiritual place on the planet…
