African Cosmology of the Bantu-Kongo #wearereading28 African Philosophy [PREVIEW]
#africanphilosophy #africancosmology

Today we honor Amos Wilson.🖤

The gears that keep us running. The voice that gives us inspiration, motivation, and charts the path to psychological liberation. We want everyone—young and old—to know Amos and his work.

Not long ago, we were chatting with a few Wilsonians—those of uswho have sat at the feet of his teachings, who have had our minds reorganized by his words. And someone asked the question:"How old were you when you learned about Amos?"

One by one, the answers came. Twenty-five. Thirty-two. Forty.Forty-seven. All of them... too late.

There was a little bit of regret in that room. Not because we found him eventually—but because we wished we had found him sooner. We wished someone had placed his books in our hands when our minds were still forming. We wished his voice had been in our ears beforethe world convinced us of lies about ourselves.

We all wished we had heard his teachings earlier.

And right there, in that moment, something was born. Afrika's Army: An Amos Wilson Awakening.

Because the youngest among us deserve to grow up with Amos. They deserve to learn about the psychology of power before they learn about powerlessness. They deserve to understand that their mind is their wealth, their consciousness is their weapon, and their cultureis their foundation.

Afrika's Army is for our children.

So that one day, when they are asked, "How old were you when you learned about Amos?" — they won't have to say too late.

They'll say, "I grew up with him."

Happy Birthday, Dr. Amos Wilson. Your work lives on in the youngest soldiers of Afrika's Army. ✊🏿📚

✊🏿Join the legacy. Teach the children.

Presenter: Prof. Rupert Lewis
Author, Professor Emeritus - University of the West Indies, Mona

Dr Rupert Lewis is Professor Emeritus of Political Thought in the Department of Government, University of the West Indies, Jamaica. Among his books published in the UWI Press Caribbean biography series are Marcus Garvey in 2018 and Walter Rodney in 2024. He is also author of Walter Rodney’s Intellectual and Political Thought and has edited books on George Padmore, the Trinidadian-born Pan-Africanist and Richard Hart, the Jamaican Marxist. He is a member of Jamaica’s
National Council on Reparation. He played an important role in the restoration and development of “Liberty Hall: the Legacy of Marcus Garvey” working with a team led by Ms. Elaine Melbourne, Mr Vivian Crawford, and Liberty Hall’s founding director, Dr Donna McFarlane. He was a member of the Council of the Institute of Jamaica and chair of the ACIJ JMB.

📚 Amy Jaques Garvey, 1896-1973: Black Revolutionary Mothering

Abstract: Interpreting letters written by Amy Jacques Garvey in the 1950s, I discuss her parenting of Marcus Garvey Jnr, an
engineer and scientist, and Dr. Julius Garvey, surgeon, and how she singlehandedly guided their Pan-Africanism. I also discuss the role she played in shaping Marcus Garvey’s legacies in the early stages of African and Caribbean decolonization and extract lessons for Pan-African struggles today.

Whether you're a student, researcher, cultural practitioner, or simply curious about Jamaica’s heritage, this session will deepen your understanding of the African elements that continue to enrich our culture.
