  OVER BLACK: We hear the voice of THOTH. A voice that knows all things: THOTH’S VOICE Listen, if thou wouldst be wise. Weigh my words and hear their truth -- though I’ve ceased being surprised by the inability of some to listen when wisdom speaks. The RISING SUN crests the PEAK OF A PYRAMID. Not an ancient ruin. It’s BRAND NEW, smooth as glass. THOTH’S VOICE Egypt was not always as you know it now, dry and unforgiving. PULL BACK to reveal towering FORESTS that stretch to the horizon. The air is lush with the breath of life. This Egypt is Edenic, primordial -- with no sand to be seen. THOTH’S VOICE Before history began, Egypt was a paradise worthy of the gods who created it. So the gods decided to live there themselves amongst their other, lesser creation... Men. The Pyramid is just a small part of a glittering PALACE COMPLEX. THOTH’S VOICE Egypt was divided between two mighty brothers... EXT. GREAT PALACE ON THE NILE - DAY what looks like a handsome MAN walks along the shore of ...

DNA shows that we “the people” were everywhere first!! Not just going from status but with bodies and artifacts. Tools, clothing… I’m not saying that everyone is right but there is more truth then myth. That's not exactly how it works. While humanity came from us, we were moving around for thousands upon thousands of years in different climates. In those climates we changed. We no longer looked like ourselves over thousands of years. It would basically be like saying that all humans today are black.. Which technically is true.. But we don't see that that way at all. ALL lands, waters and stars in the heavens are named for BLACK ancestors. Whites practice black science, religion, astrology, speak native languages etc. The acceptance of the whites in Europe caused us to be minority in those lands. Because they spread diseases that we had no immunity too. The Original gods of Europe are ÆTHIOPIAN Zeus(Father)= RA(creator) and his son Apollo! as surviving Europeans ...

Having much of our history not documented has Made more Banyankole fail to understand their origin The Banyankore are a Bantu group. They inhabit the present districts of Mbarara, Isingiro, Mitooma, Rubirizi, Sheema, Kiruhura Bushenyi, Ibanda, and Ntungamo in western Uganda. Originally, Ankole was known as Kaaro- Karungi and the word Nkore is said to have been adopted during the 17th century following the devastating invasion of Kaaro-Karungi by Chawaali, the then Omukama of Bunyoro-Kitara. The word Ankole was introduced by British colonial administrators to describe the bigger kingdom which was formed by adding to the original Nkore, the former independent kingdoms of Igara, Sheema, Buhweju and parts of Mpororo. Origins Like other Bantu groups, the origins of the Banyankore could be traced to the Congo region. Legends hold that the first occupant of Ankole was Ruhanga (the creator), who is believed to have come from heaven to rule the earth. Ruhanga is believed to have come with his t...

  While the British tabloid press created a fictional title for their comedy demonizing Ugandan leader President Idi Amin, the reality about their own unelected Monarchy remains well hidden from public scrutiny. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II of England is the largest landholder in the world. She has 6.6 billion acres of land in her name. She is the Queen of 16 countries in total where she has never been elected by the indeginous peoples. I was shocked to discover that all dolphins and whales within 3 miles of the United Kingdom shores are by law owned by Elizabeth. Under British law, she also owns all the swans in the River Thames. I never thought such ridiculous claims could still exist in the 21st century. Unlike everybody else on the planet, the Queen is the only person who has given herself power to drive any vehicle without a license. In fact all UK driving licenses are issued in the Queens name, both in the UK and in all the 16 countries she controls. So that's her excuse no...

  'The dominant globalism of the nineteenth century was colonialism with its dynamics as the conquest, commerce, and sometimes civilization (mission)' (Myers 2017:56). In this section, globalization and its influence will be discussed with a focus on Africa from the perspectives of Myers (2017) in his book,   Engaging globalization . Globalization  is known as colonialism in the third world for several centuries and is even today seen 'as a globalization by a minority' (Myers 2017:40). Bosch (1991:305-306) reflects on the relationship between colonialism and mission, quoting statements such as: 'To colonize is to missionize', and referring to the three 'C's' of colonialism, namely Christianity, commerce and civilization. It is clear that, within our previously stated understanding of spirituality, we may speak of globalization as a form of spirituality to be found also in the specific context of Africa. Many white and black people in Southern Africa ...

A shaman woman of the Mongo people of the Democratic Republic of the Congo proudly shows her "3rd eye". Circa 1937. The Mongo people are a Bantu ethnic group who live in the equatorial forest of Central Africa. They are the second largest ethnic group in the Democratic Republic of Congo, highly influential in its north region. A diverse collection of sub-ethnic groups, they are mostly residents of a region north of the Kasai and the Sankuru Rivers, south of the main Congo River bend. Their highest presence is in the province of Équateur and the northern parts of the Bandundu Province. The Mongo people, despite their diversity, share a common legend wherein they believe that they are the descendants of a single ancestor named Mongo. They also share similarities in their language and social organization, but also have differences. Anthropologists first proposed the Mongo unity as an ethnic group in 1938 particularly by Boelaert, followed by a major corpus on Mongo ...

  Africa has a hidden history that has been erased from school textbooks around the world. Many people falsely assume that Africa was primitive before European colonial invasion. They believe the fallacy that it was a place of no cities, empires, commerce and in other words, no civilization. However, this couldn’t be further from the truth. Africa has a rich and in depth pre-colonial history of magnificent and unspoken wealthy and developed empires and kingdoms. In the 12th Century, the Mali Empire was larger than Western Europe and regarded as one of the wealthiest states in the world. The Mali Empire existed between c1230 to c1600. The empire reigned in North West Africa before the Kingdom of Kongo. The Mali Empire was the center of trade internationally and Mansu Musa was the longest reigning king. Ancient pre-colonial art shows the African King Musa dressed in fine clothing and gold. The Mali Empire consisted of many libraries and Islamic universities and was known as the acade...
