On 2 October 1958, Guinea became the first of France’s colonial territories in Sub-Saharan Africa to declare its independence in an act of defiance against its former colonial master.
Ahmed Sekou Toure, known as a charismatic and radical figure in Africa's post-colonial history, was the leader of the country at the time and he was driving this rebellion by the former French Colony.
However, Guinea and Sekou Toure, achieved this status of independence against the wishes of its former colonial master, France, and afterwards the nation faced an onslaught of administrative and diplomatic assault by the French which seemed to have been designed to drive the country to its knees.
The french colonial elite in Paris got so furious with Sekou Toure’s defiance, such that in an act of fury the french administration in Guinea destroyed everything in the country which represented what they called the benefits from french colonization.
After this whole fiasco, Toure would go on to rule the country of Guinea for 26 years, and his time in power and legacy divided opinions.
In this episode of African Biographics, we look at the life and legacy of Ahmed Sekou Toure, Guinea’s first president who stood up to the French, and his time in power as the leader of that country.

In my household, we pride ourselves in the work of our hands. We believe that for as long as the rain falls and our health does not fail us, we will work and we will not go a day hungry because our fields will provide.
From a young age, we are introduced to the daily chores at home and are taught how to work the fields, when to plant and sow, when to plough and repeat. I am forever grateful for my upbringing and I will always be grateful to my mom for instilling our ways in us, from a young age and for being able to house and take care of all 27 of us. #thegreatharvest #villagelife #namibia

The Marimba and music Currulao from the Kmtyu of the Pacific Coast of colombia meets with the ancestral homeland of Senegal and the ancestral Balafon. In our studies, the Kmtyu of the Pacific Coast have theorized the Marimba is a descendant of the Balafon, and was reconstructed in the Choco rainforest when our ancestors were trafficked there. We also have a large ancestry from the ancient Mali empire in our Afrikan genepool, to include Senegambia.

No ano de 1881, em Salvador -- BA, nasce Manuel Bernardino da Paixão. Em 1919, Bernardino iniciou-se na Nação do Kongo, pelas mãos do Muxikongo (designação das pessoas naturais do Kongo), Manuel Nkosi, sacerdote iniciado na África. Com o passar do tempo, Bernardino já muito famoso, fundou o Inzo Manzo Bandukenké (Bate-Folha), situado na Mata Escura, em Salvador, Bahia. Por volta de 1938, o primeiro filho da casa, João Correia de Mello, o João Lessenge (Lessengue), mudou-se para o Rio de Janeiro, em Anchieta, local onde o terreiro se encontra nos dias de hoje.
Este álbum, feito em parceria com diversos órgãos públicos, é um trabalho primoroso de reunião de 46 cantigas, três para cada Nkisi (leia inquice), interpretadas por Mam'etu Mabeji (mametu é a mãe de santo). Os Nkisi, na cultura bantu, correspondem aos Orixás da cultura iorubá. Essa correspondência é apenas semelhança, não são nomes diferentes para uma mesma coisa. Os Nkisi tem origens e cultos diferentes, embora muito das culturas se misture. Só para citar algumas dessas relações, umas quase idênticas, outras que só lembram de longe: Pambunjila (Exu), Nkosi (Ogum), Nzazi (Xangô), Hongolo (Oxumaré), Dandaluna (Oxum), Lembá (Oxalá).

Why be an illegitimate child in America and Europe, when we could be privilege in Afrika? Repatriate back to Afrika is one of the most powerful solution we can do for ourselves.
Success should be taken from a long-term point of view with development being the foundation.
From 1959 Solid Gold Soul
The handwriting is on the wall and the Creator is calling his children out of captivity in amerikkka. Open your ears to truth and heed his orders by repatriating to the motherland. The survival of our families and honor of our ancestors is at stake.
