⁣Jazz and decolonization are entwined in this historical rollercoaster that rewrites the Cold War episode that led musicians Abbey Lincoln and Max Roach to crash the UN Security Council in protest against the murder of Patrice Lumumba.

⁣Reduplication is one of the most sophisticated linguistic tools in human language and Jamaicans have been doing it for centuries.
Linguists at Cambridge, UC Berkeley, and Oxford have studied this phenomenon across hundreds of languages. What they found? Repeating a word to intensify, extend, or deepen its meaning is a grammatically structured, cognitively grounded system — and it is especially alive and well in West and Central African languages like Akan, Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa and Gbe.
When enslaved Africans were brought to Jamaica in the 17th century, they came from dozens of different language groups — but reduplication was a thread common across all of them. It survived the Middle Passage. It survived colonialism. It survived centuries of being told our language was "broken."
It didn't survive by accident. It survived because it works.
Saying something twice feels like doing it twice. Feeling it twice. Meaning it more. Linguists call this iconicity — when the form of a word mirrors its meaning. It's one of the most natural things a human being can do with language, documented even in how babies first learn to speak.
So the next time someone tells you Patois isn't a real language — tell them wi no chat so by accident.
Wi carry Africa ina wi mout!

For too long, the history of Ancient Egypt has been written by others outside of Africa. Onuora Abuah, travels the length of Egypt, along the Nile, to establish just how much Egyptian culture owes to the mother continent it sits in.

Part 1 of KMT: A Journey through the Black Land, begins at Giza and Saqqara, where pyramid building in the region was at its height. We then travel south to Minya, which showed Egypt's contribution to Christianity.

This is a 4-Part series produced by AEA FILMS LTD, presented and written by Onuora Abuah, the first African born filmmaker to create a project of this magnitude, about the most historically debated country in the world.

⁣Link Up Podcast — Ep 7 | Ft Okunini Talawa Adodo (part 2)
Hosts: Niara Esi Ìjèawelē Ọmọlará Kwento & Bakari Kwadwo Ọbatayé Kwento

Akɔaba, Woezɔ, Oɔbaake (welcome) to another episode of Link Up Podcast, where we connect with Abibifoɔ (Black People) doing Black powerful work across Abibiman (the Black Land) and the diaspora.

In this episode, we Link Up once again with Okunini Talawa Adodo, and pick up where we left off in episode 6. This time we cover his connection to Mambo Ama Mazama, and his experience in Guadeloupe. An environment under stench occupation yet actively preserving its language, hair, music, Gwoka drum culture, and Black identity.

We discuss Black liberation celebrations, flag independence versus actual Black Power, Caribbean languages as Black languages rather than “stenglish-based” or “stench-based” creoles, and the fundamental relationship between language, worldview, grammar, and culture. The conversation also moves through Mdw Ntr, Jamaican, Twi, Igbo, Black parenting, bedroom colonialism, Cheikh Anta Diop, and Okunini Talawa’s larger mission to help Abibifoɔ speak, think, build, and raise the next generation Black to Black.

* Stay tuned after the conversation for a special animated cartoon episode. *

This is a conversation about raised consciousness becoming raised behavior, Black love as institution, and the work required to bring the whole family Black home.
