So, I have had a couple of conversations with Uncle Danjuma and my Muslim Brothers at Speakers Corner recently, in which I was defending Africentric perspectives on Spirituality and the role of Islam in Afrika. During the conversation a number of Scholarly sources came up and when corrected - I said I would go back do further research, examine the sources and consider there arguments... I Have been doing so.... and I figured it would be good do a live and share some of the information.

As the title suggest, this will not be a presentation per se - more an exploration of the information provided by scholars in the fields that were discussed. Do feel free to join man if interested... links to the previous conversation on Content Over Everything are below.

The aim of this study is to present historical sources that provide Afrikan-centered perspectives on what Israel was in relationship to kmtyw ‘Black people/Ancient Egyptians.” This study draws from ancient and classical historical texts that 1) identify the expulsion of the Hyksos with the Exodus story and 2) document the manner in which that expulsion took place. We find that there are significant differences in narratives regarding the nature of the Exodus/Expulsion, however, many people are only familiar with a single biblical story. In conclusion, as students and as scholars, it behooves us to research into primary historical sources to transcend the danger of a single story.
