"African History, Philosophy, and Culture"
From the book, "Project: Sankofa - A Rites of Passage Program"
“Not That Black Stuff Again”
Grand Rising Family!
I start out this issue of Kemetic Kontent with a picture from the Alhambra in Granada, Spain. Reflecting on history of our ancestors rule in this country, in the Moorish kingdom. I have been fortunate enough to go not once… but Twice, to Spain as a teenager, and felt an instant connection, visiting this very same place on a tour from Madrid, down through Mijas, Cordoba, Granada, Sevilla, down to Torremolinos, Costa Del Sur, and a side day trip by hydrofoil, passing the Rock of Gibraltar, to Morroco, and back to Spain. I allude to my trip in one of my earlier issues with another photo of the Lion’s court. Having a choice out of three countries to visit from my highschool, this one called to me (perhaps, I know now, that the ancestors told me to choose this one). It was the most comfortable experience I had there. My soul blended right in. I will do an issue on this trip in the future. (with photos)
We continue with Project: Sankofa on African History, Culture and Philosphy (by Joe Benton, Derrick Jackson and Burnett Gallman, Introduction by Anthony T. Browder, author of Browder File Vol. I & Vol. 2. ). I started with a quote from the title of this unit with “Not That Black Stuff Again”, a familiar comment when giving information to those of us not aware of our long, influential, purposeful and beautiful history on this planet.
Enjoy the reading, and get the book!
Peace and Blessings!
