• Paul Goss
Dr. Paul Goss, founder and president of NEW BODY PRODUCTS, was the 8th child of 10 born to Sam and Annie Goss in Canton, Georgia. He grew up in a small company town, Alcoa, Tennessee.
In this rural setting he received the basis for an international education. Not in the poorly funded segregated school, but from two of his neighborhood’s African elders. Mitchell, known as the “Root Doctor” and Ms. Bellamy, known to some as “The Herb Lady”. They were the local “root workers”. They knew the healing value of herbs and plants and how to prepare them as cures. Dr. Goss interest in holistic cures began when they recognized his potential and began instructing him in ancient cures that were passed on to them in much the same way.
Dr. Goss continued his education at historic Stillman College in Alabama, where he received a masters in biochemistry. His real thirst for knowledge, however, simply could not be filled in a traditional college environment.
He went on to become an organic chemist for a large company. Through self-study, he continued to increase his knowledge in holistic healing. Building on his modest beginnings as apprentice to “Doc” Mitchell and Ms. Bellamy, he started to develop his skills as a holistic health practitioner.
By 1965, he had begun to share his largely self-taught knowledge of herbs and holistic healing with a growing number of clients. In 1976, he established NEW BODY PRODUCTS in Compton, California. His holistic knowledge had by now earned him the formal title of Naturopathic Doctor.
Using iridology for diagnosis along with herbal remedied and vegetarian diets for treatment, Dr. Goss helped people achieve the NEW BODY they needed or wanted through his unique application of the ancient art of holistic healing.
Dr. Goss has lectured on holistic topics in nearly every US state and 17 foreign countries including Mexico, Jamaica, Africa and Europe. He has written four books, “Forever Young”, “The Natural Way”, “The Rebirth of Gods”, and “The Eyes of Forever Young” used in many universities today.

Morocco is literally on the African continent. On the map, there’s no debate. But talk to many Moroccans and you hear stuff like “We’re Arab, we’re Mediterranean, we’re Amazigh” anything but Africa. That gap is evident in how Black people are treated, whether they are Black Moroccans whose families have been there for centuries, or migrants from further south just trying to pass through the Maghreb and stay alive. So what is going on here? Is this just an identity crisis at the edge of the Sahara, or something much deeper, a long history of slavery, Arab supremacy, anti-Black prejudice and European racial thinking all fused into one? How does a country that is physically part of Africa end up with such a persistent rejection of Blackness, and what does that mean for the Black people who have no other home but Morocco itself?

What does natural hair really represent?

Across African societies, hair has long been a form of identity — communicating status, culture, and belonging. But through slavery, colonialism, and global beauty standards, these meanings were reshaped.

In this episode of the Sankofa Pan African Series, we explore the history and meaning of natural hair across Africa and the diaspora.

As part of our International Women’s Month series — African Women: Roots, Resistance & Rising — this episode examines how something deeply personal reflects broader histories of power.

Museums have long been unwelcoming or intimidating spaces for many, particularly ordinary Africans. In this powerful talk, Kwame Akoto Bamfo reimagines the museum experience through the lens of African heritage and community engagement. By embracing change as a constant force, Kwame demonstrates how interactive art and inclusive spaces can serve as healing, dialogue, and transformation mediums.

Through his work, he challenges traditional perceptions of museums and invites communities to reconnect with their identity and heritage. This talk is a compelling exploration of how art can celebrate cultural freedom and inspire others to embrace their role in shaping change narratives. Kwame Akoto-Bamfo is a Ghanaian sculptor, educator, and activist renowned for his dedication to preserving African history and promoting restorative justice through art. He earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) and Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in painting and sculpture from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology.

His seminal work, the Nkyinkyim Installation, is an evolving art project comprising over 1,500 portraits of Africans in the diaspora. This installation pays homage to the victims of the Transatlantic slave trade and is prominently featured at the National Memorial for Peace and Justice in Montgomery, Alabama.

In 2017, Akoto-Bamfo gained international attention with his "Faux-Reedom" exhibition, which featured 1,200 sculpted heads representing Ghana's enslaved ancestors. This powerful display questioned Ghana's independence and highlighted neo-colonial legacies.

Beyond his installations, Akoto-Bamfo actively participates in public speaking, research, and lectures, focusing on archiving and promoting African history and cultural heritage. His work has been featured in various documentaries and miniseries, including "Enslaved" (2020) and "The Art of Healing" (2022).

His contributions to art and activism have earned him several accolades, such as the GUBA Influential Artist of the Year in 2019 and the inaugural Kuenyehia Prize for Contemporary Art.

Through his art, Kwame Akoto-Bamfo continues challenging historical narratives, fostering healing, and inspiring restorative justice across the African diaspora. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

Fredrick Allen Hampton (August 30, 1948 – December 4, 1969) was a black activist and revolutionary socialist. He came to prominence in Chicago as chairman of the Illinois chapter of the Black Panther Party (BPP), and deputy chairman of the national BPP. In this capacity, he founded the Rainbow Coalition, a prominent multicultural political organization that initially included the Black Panthers, Young Patriots, and the Young Lords, and an alliance among major Chicago street gangs to help them end infighting and work for social change.

In 1967, Hampton was identified by the Federal Bureau of Investigation as a radical threat. The FBI tried to subvert his activities in Chicago, sowing disinformation among black progressive groups and placing a counterintelligence operative in the local Panthers. In December 1969, Hampton was shot and killed in his bed during a predawn raid at his Chicago apartment by a tactical unit of the Cook County State's Attorney's Office in conjunction with the Chicago Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation; during the raid, Panther Mark Clark was also killed and several others were seriously wounded. In January 1970, a coroner's jury held an inquest and ruled the deaths of Hampton and Clark to be justifiable homicide.

A civil lawsuit was later filed on behalf of the survivors and the relatives of Hampton and Clark. It was resolved in 1982 by a settlement of $1.85 million; the City of Chicago, Cook County, and the federal government each paid one-third to a group of nine plaintiffs. Given revelations about the illegal COINTELPRO program and documents associated with the killings, many scholars now consider Hampton's death an assassination under the FBI's initiative.

This collection of speeches by Chairman Fred Hampton Sr. is from "The Murder of Fred Hampton" (1971, The Film Group). It has been edited and uploaded for educational purposes only. We do not claim to hold the copyright to this material.
