I think the debate would be pointless because Basic Logic’s agurments are all racist talking points from the 2010s and are have been debunked already. I proved this by dismantling his White Guilt video and telling the truth about the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade.

In the Early Modern Period (around 1500-1800), West Central Africa (modern day Angola, the Congos, and Gabon) was home to a variety of different types of cloth and clothing. In this video, we discuss some of the textiles, jewelry, and other adornment that people in this region wore to cover up or show off status, primarily focusing on the kingdoms of Kongo, Ndongo, and to a lesser extent Loango. Join us as we explore some Central African Fashion History! This video is part of Untold Black History III, a collaboration for Black History Month discussing interesting and positive Black history from around the world.

Across ancient Kmt (Egypt) and early Christianity, sacred images carry hidden stories.
In this video, we explore the striking visual and symbolic parallels between Isis and Horus and Mary and Jesus—from posture and iconography to titles, theology, and cultural transmission.
Was the image of the Virgin Mary shaped by older Kmtyw (Egyptian) spiritual traditions?
What does “Aisat Mari Amen” mean, and why does it echo across time?
This is not an attack on faith, but a historical and symbolic exploration of how civilizations influence one another—and how ancient ideas are reborn in new forms.
Watch with an open mind as we trace how Isis became Mary.

Quick recap---This meeting focused on a presentation by Siphiwe Baleka about reparations and African heritage at Langston University, Oklahoma’s only Historical Black College and University (HBCU). Siphiwe discussed the historical roots of the transatlantic slave trade, explaining how the 1452 Dum Diversas papal bull declared war on African peoples and authorized European colonization. He outlined how this legal framework led to the forced removal and enslavement of African ancestors, including those who ended up in Tulsa. The presentation covered the concept of "ethnocide" - the destruction of ancestral identity - and argued that reparations should be framed as war damages rather than just slavery reparations. Siphiwe also discussed the importance of African Ancestry DNA testing to reconnect with ancestral heritage and the possibility of repatriation to African countries. The session included a breakout discussion about making a "sovereign mind switch" to reclaim indigenous legal jurisdiction that predates European systems.SEE: www.balanta.org/news/tulsa-reparations-summit
