The Empire of Wagadu (Ouagadou), more commonly known as the Ghana Empire, was a powerful state in the Medieval Sahel of West Africa, and one of the earliest in written record. With origins in antiquity and a reputation for wealth and glory in contemporary sources, it has long been an icon of Black history, though today it tends to be overshadowed by the later Mali Empire.

The Mali Empire was one of the largest and most prosperous empires in Africa, reaching its peak under the rule of Mansa Musa in the 14th century. However, after Mansa Musa's death, the empire began to decline. This decline was due to a number of factors, including succession crises, civil war, and the rise of the Songhai Kingdom.
In this video, we will explore the factors that led to the fall of the Mali Empire. We will discuss the succession crises that followed Mansa Musa's death, the civil wars that broke out within the empire, and the rise of the Songhai Kingdom. We will also discuss the legacy of the Mali Empire and its impact on the world.
This video is a must-watch for anyone interested in African history. It provides a comprehensive overview of the factors that led to the fall of one of the greatest empires in African history.

In this episode, I make the case for the deep importance of ancestral names and introduce viewers to an African naming practice. Those names are a requisite of personhood. They map out and even guide us to the realization of our path/purpose in the temporal world. The name of a person must reflects his/her purpose in life; said another way, names function as indexes of the particular “soul” assigned a particular human mission, as revealed on a particular day of birth.
