Dr. Yosef ben-Jochannan being interviewed on the "Gary Byrd Experience" by Imhotep Gary Byrd on April 20, 1994 on WLIB New York about the African origins of Judaism, Christianity & Islam.

⁣Dr. Yosef Ben-Jochannan: Looking Back to go Forward

In the North of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, one finds a church that was built in 434 AD. This church was the first of about 120 other churches built in the Tigray region. Its curved entirely from a rock and not a single stone block was used. The church is the hiding place of the Ark of the Covenant which is known to be sacred.
Whatever is in the Ark is only known to the priests and no one even the president knows or has the authority to check. Hence the big question is, what is in this preserved Ark? We find out from the keepers of the Ark.

Wisdom isn't found in one person
Anansi shows God how a lie can be more hurtful than a wound. God realizes that wisdom cannot be found in one person. He rewards Anansi by naming all stories Anansi stories.

Wisdom isn't found in one person (Twi)
Once upon if time God lived in his cottage. The name of the cottage was: There's no one besides me. Kwaku Anansi also lived in a cottage not so far away from him. The name of his cottage was: Wisdom isn't found in one person. They became good friends. One day kwaku Anansi asked God: 'What is more painful: the incision of Tribal marks or to be falsely accused of something?' God answered that a blade would cut your flesh, but when you are falsely accused of something you could just walk away and deny it. One day Kwaku Anansi went to God's cottage and relieved himselve on the stove. The next morning God's mother-in-law found the mess and was shocked and told everybody in the village. Meanwhile Kwaku Anansi hired the Rat to digg a tunnel to the room where God kept his talking drums. That same day the drums started talking and saying that God had done the deed. God couldn't bare the false accusations and wanted to kill himself. Kwaku Anansi reminded him of their conversation and God realised that false accusations could be as painful as the incisions of tribal marks. God now understood why Kwaku Anansi had named his cottage: Wisdom isn't found in one person. And from then on assigned all stories to his name. That is how all stories became Anansie stories.

⁣April 4th for a BlackTastic discussion on Repatriation back to our roots with Okunini Ọbádélé Kambon, a multi-award-winning scholar and Chief Foday Ajamu Mansaray, a founder/executive director of the Black Star Action Network International organization. Don't miss this BlackPowerful discussion! RSVP for FREE to get your ticket before it's too late and learn how you can repatriate and invest in Afrika!

On this video we discuss how Christianity has warped our sense of self and how we relate to one another as Afrikan people. Part of overcoming this obstacle includes returning to cultural practices that came before our encounter with yurugu oppressors.

Thanks to the use of the Kemetic Cosmological Argument this video proves the scientificity of the African holistic worldview.
It demonstrates that this perception of the unity of the visible and the invisible is a deductive valid statement of reality.
