This video shows us that the African traditional religion can be practiced at the divine level and at the human level.
At the divine level, the practice is based on the purification of thoughts and aims to recover one's nature as a Child of God (an Osiris), to develop a power, and to protect the community against witchcraft. The power developed at this level is the succor of the ancestors of water (bakulu ba maza), it can only be used in good.
In human practice, the power developed in divine practice is perpetuated as the use of the spirits of forest (bakulu ba nseke) for the protection of the population, its elevation, and its peace. Power in human practice can be used in good as well in evil.

God, they say, is in the details. But could God also be in our frontal lobes? Every culture from the dawn of humankind has imagined planes of existence beyond the reach of our senses, spiritual domains that shape our Earthly experiences. Why do beliefs of the fantastic hold such powerful sway over our species? Is there something in our evolutionary history that points to an answer? Does neuroscience hold the key? Straddling the gap between science and religion, Brian Greene is joined by renowned neuroscientists, anthropologists, and evolutionary biologists, to explore one of the most profound mysteries of our existence.

If you ever thought water shortages were an issue only for the distant future, think again. In Burkina Faso, water is as valuable as gold, and finding it has been one of the country’s biggest struggles for decades. But now, President Ibrahim Traoré has launched an ambitious water project that no one before him—not the Belgians, not Médecins Sans Frontières, not the UN, not the numerous NGOs—was able to fully solve.
For years, experts from all over the world tried and failed to crack Burkina Faso’s water crisis. Drilling boreholes, digging wells, and diverting water sources—none of these efforts provided a long-term solution. But now, Ibrahim Traoré has a masterplan that could change everything.

PART 2 OF 3: Origin & Influence of the Name "Amen."
In Ghana, the name of the capital "Accra" was originated from the name of black ants "Nkranii" in Akan language (Twi), so the Akans call the capital Nkrai, but our colonial masters could not pronounce it well, and they called it Accra. People of Accra came to settle on the shores of Accra, due to their huge numbers, Ghanaians related them to Nkranii (black ant). Further history of the capital of Ghana.

The fight for Black liberation lives on within Chairman Fred Hampton's fiancée and former Black Panther Akua Njeri and their son, Chairman Fred Hampton Jr. We’re excited to premiere our new ten-minute short digital film, “A Revolutionary Act'', about the life and work of Illinois Black Panther Party Chairman Fred Hampton, directed by the talented rising star, MALAKAI. Inspired by the film JUDAS AND THE BLACK MESSIAH, this passion project aims to help us unlearn what we were taught about the Black Panther Party in order to truly understand their legacy of love and service to their community.
SAVE THE HAMPTON HOUSE
The #savethehamptonhouse initiative is not just about protecting and restoring Chairman Fred Hampton’s childhood home-- it is a fight for a space to hold important, revolutionary discussions based on real historical context. Let’s help Chairman Fred’s son, Chairman Fred Hampton Jr., #savethehamptonhouse as a crucial first step into reckoning with the true history and legacy of the Black Panther Party and inspiring future leaders in the movement for Black liberation.

Why was Thomas Sankara assassinated? This gripping documentary explores the hidden truths behind the killing of one of Africa’s most visionary leaders. From his military training in Madagascar to his radical reforms in Burkina Faso, Sankara challenged imperialism, corruption, and injustice—earning him enemies both at home and abroad. But his revolutionary legacy lives on through new leaders like Ibrahim Traoré. Was his dream of a free and self-reliant Africa too dangerous for the global elite? Watch as we connect the past to the present, uncover shocking revelations, and ask the bold question: can Ibrahim Traoré finish what Sankara started?

Dr. Marimba Ani - Cleansing Ourselves of European Concepts
(14 Jan 2019) LEADIN:
Rammed earth is a construction method that has been around for millennia, but it's attracting renewed interest in countries like the USA and Australia.
In Ghana a construction company is returning to the technique of rammed earth building, promoting its eco-friendly and economical technique.
STORYLINE:
This construction worker is part of a team building an eco-friendly house near Ghana's capital city, Accra.
He is compressing a mixture of raw materials mostly sourced from within two kilometres.
When the temporary structure is later removed it will reveal a solid wall – the beginning of a house.
The technique is called rammed earth, as co-founder of Hive Earth Kwame de Heer explains.
"Rammed earth is a really old technique. Here in Ghana we have always built houses using mud, but here we have modernised it. We use a mixture of laterite which contains sand, a bit of silt, clay and some stones. We pour this into a temporary structure after being mixed. After pouring in eight inches we compress it to about four inches. We are mimicking a sedimentary rock, but speeding up the process. It's man-made stone."
About five percent of the raw materials used in this method requires imported cement, which is necessary as a stabiliser.
As well as being more eco-friendly, Hive Earth says it costs a third less than building with sandcrete blocks, commonly used in Ghana.
Foster Osae-Akonnor heads up Ghana's Green Building Council:
"Once you can get materials from the locality that you are working, then it helps to reduce the carbon footprint. In addition, comparing rammed earth to concrete, you save all the embodied energy that will be required in the manufacturing of cement."
Compared to other building materials, a very high amount of energy is consumed to produce cement. In addition cement is imported into Ghana.
Another of Hive Earth's rammed earth projects, in Accra, reveals its interesting aesthetic, which is the result of the ramming process.
The technique is well suited to the hot climate of Ghana as it keeps the room temperature cool, says co-owner of Hive Earth, British-Ghanaian entrepreneur Joelle Eyeson.
"Rammed earth is sound proof, it's termite proof, it's thermally insulative – so it regulates the internal room temperature. Because the walls are so thick it takes a while for the heat to penetrate through to the internal room. Our walls can be anything from 12 to 15 inches thick. It's earthquake resistant as well, due to the monolithic nature of the walls as compared to sandcrete blocks, because the walls are monolithic. With sandcrete blocks you have the mortar joints so it's easier for the wall to shake and become disinbursed, whereas with rammed earth it's just one straight monolithic wall. It's as strong as concrete as well – it can last for hundreds of years."
A long-standing example of rammed earth is the Great Wall of China.
Williams Nimailo from the Ghana Bureau of Standards helped draw up the country's new building code.
Allowance is made for rammed earth under both traditional and green building construction methods. Provision is made for modern materials such as clay-fired bricks or cement blocks.
Akosua Obeng is an architect who contracted Hive Earth to build the external walls of a luxury complex in Accra.
Obeng believes using rammed earth techniques in a high-end development will help to change perceptions about how earth materials can enhance design and architecture.
Hive Earth have produced eight rammed earth projects since starting up in 2016, and have many more projects planned in Ghana and regionally.

A BBC News Arabic investigation has uncovered systemic child abuse inside Islamic schools in Sudan, with boys as young as five years old routinely chained, shackled and beaten by the “sheikhs”, or religious men in charge of the schools. The investigation also found evidence of sexual abuse. For 18 months, reporter, Fateh Al-Rahman Al-Hamdani, filmed inside 23 schools across Sudan. He found boys shackled and chained and witnessed brutal routine beatings.
