Is colonialism a thing of the past, right? Something that was en vogue maybe one hundred years ago but has surely gone out of fashion in 2026. Well, it turns out that's not the case. Several European countries, including Spain, France, the UK, and Portugal, have territories they claim in Africa and other parts of the world. Today, instead of using the word 'colony,' they may call these places overseas territories, departments, autonomous cities or islands, but the truth remains the same: these are places in Africa owned by Europe.

In this video, we look at these islands and cities and reflect upon what position Pan-Africanists and anti-imperialists should take in the face of this colonial reality. Some of these places have Indigenous populations living in them. In others, colonial forces killed or forcibly removed entire Indigenous populations. And some of them may not have had an Indigenous population but remain geographically located in Africa. While some of these places are rarely discussed in the media and may not be easily identifiable on a map, during the 1960s and 1970s, they were nonetheless considered part of the project for Pan-African unity.

⁣mktyw kmt (Defenders of the Black Land) - Episode 2 - Culture: The Immune System

Mwacha mila ni mtumwa.
He who abandons his culture is a slave. — Swahili proverb

The churches came down. Something else went up in their place.

Across Abibiman, a generation is being taught to carry themselves as someone else's children. A body that forgets itself stops recognizing what doesn't belong — and that is exactly the opening the enemies of the Black Land have been preparing for, this time will attempt to use their quietest door yet. They've spent decades preparing the one who'd hold it open — someone they think the community would never turn away.

But something is shifting on the ground. The family doesn't move alone. The community is ready to put skin in the game and choosing to participate in destroying Black Powerless systems in exchange for Black Powerful ones. This unification is happening just in time, as an even bigger storm is brewing.

⁣Balance is an Attribute of Maat

⁣One of the worst mass killers in South Africa’s history is free from prison. He is finally ready to speak; and 30 years on, his victims are still fighting for closure and justice.
