The Toubou [Tabu, Tebu] of Southern Libya in the immediate Aftermath of the overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi by NATO. [2011]⁣


For the first time in 42 years, a camera enters Southern Libya in what was forbidden territory under the Gaddafi regime.

Shortly after Gaddafi’s demise, we accompany members of the disgraced Tabu tribe along the road to their impoverished desert territory near the Algeria-Niger-Chad borders 1000 Km from Tripoli.

This video offers a presentation of the concept of religion according to the understanding the Kôngo people had of this notion before their encounter with the Europeans.

Religion was understood as n'kisi nsi, the use of n'kisi as divine spirits to empower human beings in order to enable them to fight the evil effects of demonic spirits.

The kôngo concept of n'kisi means spirit and power. It alludes first to God, the Most High, and to holy ancestors as animating spirits and protecting power surrounding human beings. This implies that the concept of n'kisi is alike the Igbo concept of Chi and the Yoruba concept of Ase.

It is thus anomalous to reduce the meaning of n'kisi to the Western concept of fetish.

This video demonstrates the fallacy of Western monotheism as the notion of a Most-high-creator.


On the contrary, thanks to a cosmological argument, it demonstrates the scientific validity of African traditional theism which distinguishes the Most High from the Creator and the Logos.

Baboons and lions may not seem the likeliest of allies, but in Tanzania they’ve formed an unusual partnership. At the edges of a year-round waterhole in Ruaha National Park, they work together – against the other animals. ↠Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/c/Terr....aMaterOfficial?sub_c

In astonishing footage that gets up close and personal, we’ll show you how these intelligent primates have learned to betray their natural instincts, and how both baboons and lions benefit from the arrangement. Be warned – you may never trust a baboon again . . .

WHEN THE JOY COMES-TOUR tickets: https://kj.de/artist/4684/Akua_Naru.html

"My Mother’s Daughter" is the first single release off Akua Naru’s third and forthcoming studio album "...The Blackest Joy" (Spring 2018). The song, at times dark and mystical, at others bright and full of hope, is a rich narrative of black womanhood, agency, West African spirituality, lineage, and sisterhood. With West African influences, as evidenced by the song's introduction and its additional vocals (spoken & sung completely in Mina), Naru, once again, merges genres along the black music tradition and glides effortlessly between soul, jazz, and hip-hop.
Filmed in Lome, Togo, West Africa and directed by Hamburg based artist Joachim Zunke, the video, to be continued, highlights Akua Naru, the mystic/ the traveler, and documents the marriage of her inner and outer worlds. A visual homage to black womanhood on the African continent and in the diaspora.

---Deutsch---
"My Mother's Daughter" ist die erste Single aus Akua Narus drittem Album "…The Blackest Joy", das im Frühling 2018 erscheint. Der Song ist mystisch und zugleich hell und hoffnungsvoll. Er erzählt eine Geschichte über schwarze Weiblichkeit und westafrikanische Spiritualität. Letztere spiegelt sich auch in der Musik, im Intro und den Vocals, komplett in Mina vorgetragen. Akua Naru’s Hip Hop Musik ist zeitlos und repräsentiert den Reichtum und die Schönheit afro-amerikanischer Tradition und Kultur.
Der Hamburger Regisseur Joachim Zunke hat das Video in Lomé in Togo/Westafrika gedreht. Es stellt Akua Naru als Mystikerin und Wanderin dar und lässt ihre inneren und äußeren Welten verschmelzen: eine visuelle Hommage an afrikanische Weiblichkeit in Afrika und der Diaspora.

---Francais---
"My Mother's Daughter" est le premier single du troisième album d'Akua Naru "... The Blackest Joy" (Printemps 2018). La chanson, tantôt sombre et mystique, tantôt brillante et pleine d'espoir, est un riche récit de féminité noire, de spiritualité d'Afrique de l'Ouest, de lignage et de fraternité. A l’origine, influencé par un chant d'Afrique de l'Ouest, comme en témoigne l'introduction de la chanson et des voix supplémentaires (parlé et chanté complètement en Mina), akua naru fusionne encore les genres de la musique traditionnelle africaine au jazz et au hip-hop. Filmée à Lomé au Togo (Afrique de l'Ouest), réalisée par Joachim Zunke, et produite par Elom 20ce et Jahëna Louisin, cette vidéo est la première d’une série. Elle met en lumière Akua Naru, le mystique / le voyageur : un hommage visuel à la féminité noire sur le continent africain et dans la diaspora.
