A documentary on the Nubian Archers - Longbow-men of Africa.
⁣In this Units of History documentary we explore the story of the Nubian Archers - Longbowmen of Africa. The episode begins with an introduction to the lands of the Nile, its geography, and the entwined development of both Egypt and Nubia. In this context it appears that the Nubian Archers existed from the very start as skilled hunters in southern civilization. Over time they would develop such a reputation that the ancient Egyptians would call the area of ancient Nubia, Tah-Seti, the Land of the Bow. Both the Egyptian Army and the Nubian Army would clash for centuries along the Nile. Such was the threat from Nubia that the Pharaohs began to fortify the region of the first cataract with a series of Egyptian Fortifications like the Buhen Fortress. Yet even still the Nubian Archers could not be stopped and their armies are said to have regularly managed to storm these bastions. The Egyptians recognized the military prowess of the Nubian Archers and quickly hired them as mercenaries in their own armies. This was a trend that would continue with later Empires that interacted with the Lands of Nubia. We talk specifically about what the equipment of these Nubian archers, how they were trained, how they were organized, and how they fought in battle. Finally the documentary concludes with an overview of their service history that would span hundreds of years through the Kingdom of Kerma, the Kingdom of Napata, and the Kingdom of Meroe. Stay tuned for more Units of History episodes and let us know what units you would like to see covered next! I'm excited to also cover more of the history of Nubia and African history in general!

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.

On this episode of Yediemu we got closer to the elders of Akuapim to tell us the history of the people of Akuapim, he told the history as follows ; The Odwira festival is celebrated by the chiefs and peoples of Fanteakwa District and Akuapem in the Eastern Region of Ghana. The Odwira Festival is celebrated by the people of Akropong-Akuapim, Aburi, Larteh, and Mamfe. This is celebrated annually in the month of September and October. The festival celebrates a historic victory over the Ashanti]s in 1826. This was the battle of Katamansu near Dodowa. It was first celebrated in October 1826.

This was during the reign of the 19th Okuapimhene of Akropong, Nana Addo Dankwa (I) from 1811 to 1835. It is a time of spiritual purification where the people are renewed and receive protection. It is also celebrated by the people of Jamestown in Accra. This is due to the associations formed through the intermarriages of the Ga and Akuapem people.

Customarily, the scheduling of the festival occurs simultaneously with the reaping season when there is bumper food; during which gratitude is shown to the Ancestors by the people. Being a yam festival, thanksgiving for the bumper reap is principally demonstrated in the "giving food to the ancestors".

Mali Issues Arrest Warrant for Barrick Gold CEO Over Financial Disputes

Mali, one of Africa’s top gold producers, has issued an arrest warrant for Mark Bristow, the CEO of Canadian mining giant Barrick Gold. The warrant was issued December 4,

and I will tell you all about it , why he was arrested and why Mali is behaving this way towards foreign mining companies. in this video you will have perfect understanding with key facts to debate this topic everywhere you find yourself.

Gold Production in Mali: Overview

.to get the clear view and understanding of the situation, some facts need to be established.

Mali is one of Africa’s largest gold producers and plays a significant role in the global gold mining industry.

Gold accounts for a substantial portion of the country's economy, making it a vital resource for government revenue, exports, and employment.

Let's establish 5 Key Facts About Mali’s Gold Production

1. Ranking:

Mali is the third-largest gold producer in Africa, after South Africa and Ghana.

It is one of the top 15 gold producers globally.

2. Annual Production:

Mali produces approximately 60-70 metric tons of gold per year, sometimes production can vary depending on mining activities and investments.


3. Contribution to GDP:

Gold contributes around 10% to 15% of Mali’s GDP.

It accounts for over 75% of Mali's export earnings.

4. Major Gold Mines:

Mali has several large-scale gold mines operated by international mining companies including :

Loulo-Gounkoto Complex (operated by Barrick Gold who's CEO is under arrest warrant

Fekola Mine (operated by B2Gold)

Sadiola Mine (operated by IAMGOLD and AngloGold Ashanti)

Morila Mine (operated by Firefinch Limited)




5. Reserves:

Mali has over 800 metric tons of proven gold reserves, with significant potential for new discoveries.

looking at Economic Importance of Gold in mali
in regards to Government Revenue: Taxes and royalties from gold mining are a critical source of income for the government of mali.

The Malian government accuses Bristow who is the CEO of barrick gold Mining companie , the government accused him of money laundering and violating financial regulations,

Now mind you similar things occurred last month.
when Mali Military leader Detains CEO and Staff of Resolute Mining
which is Australian gold miner .

they were detained by the Malian government with similar claims of these mining companie refusing to comply with the new mining code introduced by the Malian government since the military took over power.

and now this CEO is Also under arrest warrant.

Since the government of Niger took over power there is so much Escalation between the Government and these Mining Companies

reason been that
Mali’s military-led government is pushing for more revenue from the mining sector to support the country’s economy, especially with gold prices on the rise.
