Description: Scholars Dr. Julius Garvey and Robin Walker with Dr Joyce King, discuss dynamic methods and modulates to best take Black Education and Studies forward, at multiple levels, including the Academic and Community level. The importance of bridging the cultural language gaps between English, Francophile and Spain speaking worlds is keenly sited, as such cultural and intellectual ‘cross pollination’ often brings new insights and ideas to the fore that often wouldn’t be achieved otherwise. Dr Joyce King gives a beauty example of this, recanting when a Brazilian friend and academic on a tour of Egypt they both took together, discovered and observed that the historic place name where an iconic Ancient Temple was located, called ‘Dendera’ bore many similarities to the name of the Palmares Legend and wife of King Zumbi, the iconic Afro Brazilian freedom fighter called ‘Dandara’( the spelling is slightly different, but the pronunciation from the locals was reminiscent ). Something that someone with a different cultural background might not have picked up so easily. On another note, that example also beautifully alludes to the cultural continuity of African brilliance and resilience across time, space, the seven seas and continents across the globe.About the Podcast: In this Revolutionary Podcast series of conversations, the son of the late great Marcus Garvey, the venerable Dr Julius Garvey shares and explores deep thought ideas and concepts with Robin Walker ( The Black History Man ) about the relevance and need for Pan Africanist principles today. How we can utilise and apply them effectively to uplift the Black Diaspora worldwide to bring about the change we need in this modern day and age. In the Principle of ‘Sankofa’ ( Looking back and Remembering ) the African origins and contributions to History, Politics, cooperative Economics, Religion, Science and Technology and Philosophy are explored in depth to inform the listener about the immense achievements of the Black Diaspora as a collective, and to show how we can apply unique African thought concepts and philosophies to our own lives as individuals and communities and to continually progress and improve ourselves as a ‘People’ in the present and the future for the better.
