However, Western powers were reluctant to engage in silver trade and in their search for an alternative avenue they discovered something that would change history forever: Opium. As opium surged throughout the nation, it brought forth multifaceted societal issues, ultimately fueling the harrowing Opium Wars.

The UK is sending some of Ghana's "crown jewels" back home, 150 years after looting them from the court of the Asante king.

A gold peace pipe is among 32 items returning under long-term loan deals, the BBC can reveal.

The Victoria & Albert Museum (V&A) is lending 17 pieces and 15 are from the British Museum.

Ghana's chief negotiator said he hoped for "a new sense of cultural co-operation" after generations of anger.

Hey everyone, just a quick video reading off an interesting article on the subject of how Medieval Africans handled Pandemics (though the article says "Ancient Africans" a bunch, medieval is much more appropriate), so that I can meet my 2020 New Year's Resolution of posting 9 videos before 2021! Apologies for my struggles pronouncing some of the words in this article, you wouldn't believe how many tries it took to get some of them even close to right lmao.

Egyptologist Aboubacry Moussa Lam, states,

English Translation:
(a) (English Translation) --

English:
"KMT, which has the same root as KM "black", must be translated, in all rigor, as "the blacks". It is not acceptable for us to say, against all logic, that the term applied to the black earth of Egypt or to deliberately confuse it with kmtyw 'the inhabitants of kmt" (p.28)

French:
« KMT, qui a la même racine que KM « noir », doit être traduit, en toute rigueur, par « les noirs ». Il n’est pas acceptable pour nous de dire, contre toute logique, que le terme s’appliquait à la terre noire d’Egypte ou de la confondre délibérément avec kmtyw « les habitants de kmt (p.28)

(b) Aboubacry Moussa Lam, states (English Translation) --
"Very eloquent and highly demonstrative fact. The other, we have already evoked with the term kmt which was one of those that the ancient Egyptians used to designate themselves as a human collectivity and which is derived from the root km whose meaning is 'black', which no Egyptologist disputes. Strictly speaking, therefore, this term must be translated as 'The Blacks."(p.34).

"Fait tres eloquent et hautement demonstratif donc. L'autre, nous l'avons deja evoque avec le terme kmt qui etait l'un de ceux que les anciens Egyptiens utilisaient pour se designer en tant que collectivite humain et qui est tire de la racine km dont le sens est 'noir', Ce que ne conteste aucun egyptologue. En toute rigueur donc, ce terme doit etre traduit par 'Les Noirs'.(p.34).
