History matters, says Thierry Zomahoun. Storytelling sets the tone for global perceptions of reality, which in turn influence the behavior of one group of people towards another. In this address delivered in October 2017 at the 10th World Conference of Science Journalists in San Francisco, California, Zomahoun presented evidence that the Greek, Roman and other Western discoveries in mathematics that contributed to modern science were made thousands of years after similar African developments. Zomahoun argues that Africa is the birthplace of mathematical sciences, and that this is the continent’s single biggest contribution to humanity.

Black Seminoles participated in one of the most successful slave revolts in American history. Dr. Anthony Dixon shares with us how the people who would be called during the President Andrew Jackson era "Native Indians" and "Black Indians" would combine forces in a fight for freedom that would span several decades, two wars and is considered by many as the largest slave revolt on America soil.

From 1999 Album: "Black On Both Sides"

Born Dante Terrell Smith on December 11, 1973, in Brooklyn, NY, Mos Def began rapping at age nine and began professionally acting at age 14, when he appeared in a TV movie. After high school, he began acting in a variety of television roles, most notably appearing in 1994 on a short-lived Bill Cosby series, The Cosby Mysteries. In 1994 Mos Def formed the rap group Urban Thermo Dynamics with his younger brother and sister, and signed a recording deal with Payday Records that didn't amount to much. In 1996 his solo career was launched with a pair of high-profile guest features on De La Soul's "Big Brother Beat" and Da Bush Babees' "S.O.S." A year later, in 1997, Mos Def released his debut single, "Universal Magnetic," on Royalty Records, and it became an underground rap hit. This led to a recording contract with Rawkus Records, which was just getting off the ground at the time, and he began working on a full-length album with like-minded rapper Talib Kweli and producer Hi-Tek. The resulting album, Black Star (1998), became one of the most celebrated rap albums of its time. A year later came Mos Def's solo album, Black on Both Sides, and it inspired further attention and praise. Yet, aside from appearances on the Rawkus compilation series Lyricist Lounge and Soundbombing, no follow-up recordings were forthcoming, as the up-and-coming rapper turned his attention elsewhere, away from music.

During the early 2000s, Mos Def acted in several films (Monster's Ball, Bamboozled, Brown Sugar, The Woodsman) and even spent some time on Broadway (the Pulitzer Prize-winning Topdog/Underdog). He simultaneously worked on the Black Jack Johnson project with several iconic black musicians: keyboardist Bernie Worrell (Parliament/Funkadelic), guitarist Dr. Know (Bad Brains), drummer Will Calhoun (Living Colour), and bassist Doug Wimbish (the Sugarhill Gang, Grandmaster Flash, Living Colour). This project aimed to reclaim rock music, especially the rap-rock hybrid, from such artists as Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst, who Mos Def openly despised. What made Black Jack Johnson so anticipated though was not so much the supergroup roster of musicians or even Mos Def himself, but rather the lack of black rock bands. Following the demise of Living Colour, there were few, if any, that had attained substantial success. Mos Def hoped to infuse the rock world with his all-black band, and during the early 2000s, he performed several small shows with his band around the New York area. In October 2004, he finally delivered a second solo album, The New Danger, which involved Black Jack Johnson on a few tracks.

Two years later, after a few more acting roles — including the Golden Globe-winning Lackawanna Blues and the Emmy-winning Something the Lord Made, both of which were made-for-television movies — Mos Def released his third solo album, True Magic (2006). A contract-fulfilling release for Geffen, which had absorbed Rawkus years prior, the album trickled out in a small run during the last week of 2006. Bizarrely, the disc came with no artwork and was sold in a clear plastic case — though its single, "Undeniable," did manage to grab a Grammy nomination for Best Rap Solo Performance. The Ecstatic, released on the Universal-distributed Downtown label, followed in June 2009; at that point, Mos Def had significant acting roles in Michel Gondry's Be Kind Rewind (in which he co-starred with Jack Black) and Cadillac Records (he played Chuck Berry).

⁣“It was Martin’s precious blood. This blood was shed for us.’ Jesse puts his hands in the blood and wipes it on his shirt. What do you do in a moment like that?” — Andrew Young on Jesse Jackson shortly after MLK, Jr. was shot

Who Killed MLK? The Question STILL Remains

Every 3rd Monday in January, we hear Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr’s famous, “I Have A Dream” speech, but if you research this still mysterious murder—and even deeper, the days that led up to his assassination—you’ll find it really was (and continues to be) a nightmare!

This nightmare became even more deceitful when white media labeled James Earl Ray the lone assassin. While most accepted, there are those that knew there was another side of the story that wasn’t been heard.

Find out about Jesse Jackson’s role in my 4th book, ‘Who Iz the Boulé?: The History of America’s First Black Fraternity and the Derailment Toward Afrikan Self-Reliance available in paperback, audiobook, eBook, and digital PDF.

Dr Hilliard describes himself as an educator, a psychologist, and a historian. He uses these disciplines to give a clear and concise depiction of the state of the African diaspora, past and present. Dr Hilliard provides problems as well as solutions by focusing on the source of the problems instead of the symptoms. This is rare footage that will not be found anywhere else. MAAT Keru to Baba Asa.
(To prevent people from stealing his footage and profiting, I will not provide this particular video without the music, so i apologize if it's a distraction. You can check out a lot of Dr Hilliards work on the Clark Atlanta library site.)
