This video explains the history of Malcolm X's Yoruba ancestors and how they were transported to Grenada as liberated Africans from a condemned slave ship that was most likely on its way to Cuba. After condemnation the Africans were confiscated and employed as indentured labor on plantations. Malcolm X's great-grand parents were products of this history.

Queen Njinga Ana de Sousa Mbande (also spelled Nzinga, Nzingha, Ginga, and probably some other ways) was a 17th century ruler of the Kingdoms of Ndongo and Matamba, in what is now Angola. Fighting on the battlefield alongside her troops, and adapting to a variety of lifestyles from Mbundu to Imbangala to Christian, she displayed constant resilience in the face of Portuguese colonialism in West Central Africa, and earned herself a reputation as an Amazonian queen and the most formidable opponent the Portuguese had ever faced in Africa. This is her story.I apologize to any Kimbundu speakers who watch this video for my inevitable butchering of your language.

The symbol behind it is an Nsibidi symbol from the region of what is now southeastern Nigeria, and represents wealth, or in this case a wealth of knowledge. The colors of the symbol in the background are based on the common Pan-African tricolor flag, red, black, and green, while the Sankofa symbol is yellow to represent an alternative set of Pan-Africanist colors that includes yellow instead of black, based on the Ethiopian flag. All four of these colors are commonly used in Pan-Africanist flags and designs.Happy Black History Month y'all :DFootnotes:1. Heywood 2017, 57-60; Thornton and Lee 2011, 1832.

In a move that has stunned the diplomatic world, Namibia's first female president has just done what no other African leader dared to do – impose visa restrictions on American citizens in direct response to Trump's sweeping travel ban on 22 African nations.
But this isn't just about visas...
In this explosive investigation, I reveal:
The shocking hypocrisy behind Trump's "security concerns" (the stats will leave you speechless)
Why Americans are statistically SAFER in Lagos than in Chicago
How Namibia's 35-year democracy just outpaced America's 250-year experiment
The high-stakes economic gamble that has global elites scrambling
Why this diplomatic chess move might forever change US-Africa relations
As a geopolitical analyst with over two decades of experience, I'm taking you beyond the headlines into the hidden power dynamics that mainstream media won't touch.
This isn't just analysis – it's a wake-up call about how global power is shifting right before our eyes.

Black Culture Matters is a series hosted by the African American Studies Institute (AASI) at Prince George's Community College, revolving around this year’s theme: Resisting De-humanization through the Humanities.
The goal of this series is not to declare the value of Black lives to those who do not wish to acknowledge it. The goal is, instead, to examine the ways in which people of African descent have expressed their own humanity, to affirm the meaning-making with which they have resisted being "thingified."
These four (4) lecture-discussions will not only offer historical and cultural context for the given topics; they will also challenge the community to think about how expanded knowledge might inform the racially charged present moment.

These genuine Bolga baskets are exclusively woven by the indigenous Gurune people (also known as Frafra) around the town of Bolgatanga in Northern Ghana.
Bolga is the crafts center of Northern Ghana. For many generations, weaving has been a traditional skill of the people there. The soil around Bolgatanga is not fertile enough for extensive agricultural activities. As a result, handicraft activities such as basket weaving, leather work, and pottery are undertaken mostly by women to supplement their incomes since they are primarily subsistence farmers.
The creation of these Bolga baskets is a complex process that captures the exquisite skill of the weavers.
First, veta vera straw, known locally as kinkahe, is collected from the tops of the grass stalks, then each piece is split in half vertically.
Once the straw is split, it is then twisted back together to give it strength.
At this point the straw is put in bunches and dyed in boiling water. For bright colors the straw is dyed yellow first, then the color.
After coloring, the weaver carefully selects appropriate straw for the base, sides and handle. The selection of the proper grass for various parts of the basket is critical to good weaving.
Weaving starts at the base and works up to the rim. The rims are generally finished flat, or wrapped with straw to form a rounded edge.
Once the rims are finished, the handle will be created, attached, and customized. Handles are made with a sturdy wrapping technique around a grass core.
Hundreds of remaining bits of straw that are sticking out of the basket are carefully trimmed off.
Leather handles are skillfully applied by local leather workers.
A medium basket takes about 3 days to complete. Some shapes and patterns are more difficult to weave and take longer.
