Martin Luther King, Jr., and the African-American Social Gospel
Most recent studies of Martin Luther King, Jr., emphasize the extent to which his ideas were rooted in African-American religious traditions. Departing from King's own autobiographical account and from earlier studies that stressed the importance of King's graduate studies at Crozer Theological Seminary and Boston University, contemporary scholars have focused attention on King's African-American religious roots. The Martin Luther King, Jr., Papers Project has contributed to this scholarly trend by documenting the King family's long-standing ties to Ebenezer Baptist Church and the social gospel ministries of his father and grandfather, both of whom were civil rights leaders as well as pastors. The King project's research also suggests, however, that the current trend in scholarship may understate the extent to which King's African-American religious roots were inextricably intertwined with the European-American intellectual influences of his college years. The initial volumes of the project's fourteen-volume edition of King's papers have contributed to a new understanding of King's graduate school experiences, demonstrating that his academic writings, though flawed by serious instances of plagiarism, were often reliable expressions of his complex, evolving Weltanschauung. Moreover, King's writings make clear that his roots in African-American religion did not necessarily separate him from European-American theological influences, because many of the black religious leaders who were his role models were themselves products of predominantly white seminaries and graduate schools. Rather than being torn between two mutually exclusive religious traditions, King's uniquely effective transracial leadership was based on his ability to combine elements of African-American and European-American religious traditions.

King was deeply influenced by his childhood immersion in African-American religious life, but his years at Crozer and Boston increased his ability to incorporate aspects of academic theology into his sermons and public speeches. His student papers demonstrate that he adopted European-American theological ideas that ultimately reinforced rather than undermined the African-American social gospel tradition epitomized by his father and grandfather. Although King's advanced training in theology set him apart from most African-American clergymen, the documentary evidence regarding his formative years suggests that his graduate studies engendered an increased appreciation for his African-American religious roots. From childhood, King had been uncomfortable with the emotionalism and scriptural literalism that he associated with traditional Baptist liturgy, but he was also familiar with innovative, politically active, and intellectually sophisticated African-American clergymen who had themselves been influenced by European-American theological scholarship. These clergymen served as role models for King as he mined theological scholarship for nuggets of insight that could enrich his preaching. As he sought to resolve religious doubts that had initially prevented him from accepting his calling, King looked upon European-American theological ideas not as alternatives to traditional black Baptist beliefs but as necessary correctives to those beliefs.

Tracing the evolution of his religious beliefs in a sketch written at Crozer entitled "An Autobiography of Religious Development," King recalled that an initial sense of religious estrangement had unexpectedly and abruptly become apparent at a Sunday morning revival meeting he attended at about the age of seven. A guest evangelist from Virginia had come to talk about salvation and to seek recruits for the church. Having grown up in the church, King had never given much thought to joining it formally, but the emotion of the revival and the decision of his sister to step forward prompted an impulsive decision to accept conversion. He reflected, "I had never given this matter a thought, and even at the time of [my] baptism I was unaware of what was taking place." King admitted that he "joined the church not out of any dynamic conviction, but out of a childhood desire to keep up with my sister."

this uncritical attitude could not last long, for it was contrary to the very nature of my being. I had always been the questioning and precocious type. At the age of 13 I shocked my Sunday School class by denying the bodily resurrection of Jesus. From the age of thirteen on doubts began to spring forth unrelentingly.

Godfrey NZAMUJO (Songhai) with Lucette Verboven
Godfrey NZAMUJO (Songhai) with Lucette Verboven Ambakisye-Okang Dukuzumurenyi 21 Views • 5 years ago

'Why is Africa, such a rich country in opportunities, so poor?'

‘Africans must come home.’ Because of this quote by ex-president Nyerere (Tanzania), the life of Godfrey Nzamujo (Nigeria) was completely transformed. As a young student, he had come to California, living an easy life with the money of his community and the church. After seeing starving African children on TV, he decided to go home, where he transformed a piece of wasteland into ‘Songhai’ a successful project in Benin that moved Ban Ki-moon to tears!
I met this Dominican friar in Amsterdam together with Dutch entrepreneurs. Africans are called to go home, because ‘the future of Africa lies in its lands, its climate and its agricultural work, which is so poorly appreciated in the continent today.’

‘Afrikanen moeten naar huis terugkeren’. Door deze uitspraak van ex-president Nyerere (Tanzania) veranderde het leven van Godfrey NZAMUJO volledig. Aanvankelijk leidde hij een comfortabel leventje in Californië met het geld dat zijn gemeenschap en de kerk hem voor zijn studies ter beschikking hadden gesteld. Na beelden van ondervoede Afrikaanse kinderen, ging hij naar Afrika terug. Hij transformeerde een stuk braakliggende grond tot de bloeiende onderneming ‘Songhai’ in Benin, een ongelooflijk succesverhaal dat Ban Ki-Moon (secretaris VN) volledig enthousiast maakte voor Afrika.
Ik ontmoette deze dominicaanse friar in Amsterdam samen met Nederlandse agrarische ondernemers. Nzamujo roept Afrikanen op, zoals eens Nyerere deed, om zich in Afrika in te zetten want ‘the future of Africa lies in its lands, its climate and its agricultural work, which is so poorly appreciated in the continent today.’

Nataki's Homemade Piña Colada
Nataki's Homemade Piña Colada Nataki Kambon 52 Views • 7 years ago

1 Organic pineapple
1 can organic coconut milk

1 Large Kichen Knife
Juicer and/or blender
Pineapple corer
Can opener

1. Turn the pineapple on its side and chop off the top as shown.

2. Take the corer and remove the pineapple down to within a quarter inch of the base.
Note: Don't core too far down or you will puncture the base of the pineapple. If you do that your pina colada will spill out of the bottom when you try to refill the rind.

2. Turn it on at the pineapple setting and put the pineapple in the juicer. Turn off when finished.

3. Open the can of coconut milk.

4. Add a 4 or ounce can of coconut milk and the juice pineapple in a glass blender. Optionally you can add some of the pulp from the juicing to get the fiber and the nutrients.

If you don't have a blender you can stir the ingredients together with a spoon or put in a jar with a lid and shake vigorously.

5. Pour the Pina Colada back into the rind.

6. Drink from the rind directly or with a straw.

Pineapple is a good source of vitamin C, manganese, and B1 and B6. Don't let your pina colada sit in open-air for very long.

It might be good to pair similar nutrient supplements with your pina colada for improved absorption of those nutrients.

The best way to get the nutrients is to drink your pina colada quickly. The more contact with oxygen the more the vitamin oxidizes and breaks down. In other words, the vitamin C loses its potency and you lose the nutritional value.

Pineapple and coconut are both immune builders.

APOCALYPSE OR FREEDOM?
APOCALYPSE OR FREEDOM? Blaxit 18 Views • 6 years ago

Controversial laws are being p****ed in different states in the US that appear to imply that the COVID 19 Vaccine may be mandatory. In light of the current speculation regarding the safety of the experimental vaccine with 4 alleged deaths of children who were involved in medical trials in Africa, it is questionable how safe the vaccine is. After an interview with two French Doctors during a TV interview they stated that they would test if the TB vaccine would be effective for the COVID 19 virus or CAPS . We felt very strongly that no tests should be conducted in Africa given the fact that the Continent in fact has the least fatalities. In fact it should be tested in those areas that most need it. In addition to this the population reduction statements made about Africa only raises further suspicion. Why is population control always directed towards Africa? Gambia for example has less than 2 million people who live in 4231 Square miles, whereas London is 600 Square miles and has over 9 million inhabitants. There are too many issues to address, however we are concerned that African Leaders will be bought out and implement Infectious Disease Centres in their countries thereby officiating and ensuring that experimental and possibly lethal vaccines are trialed in the countries potentially harmful viruses will be released causing a catastrophic pandemic. A thought should be given to the potential victims, not just to the money being pumped into Africa via World Banks. Which should be building lots of hospitals, not just testing centres. This all sounds nefarious and may be like a conspiracy theory. The conspiracy theorist were absolutely correct in predicting the events that are unfolding today and maybe we should pay closer attention. I have included a couple of clips one from Project Camelot that was made in 2010 and one from an old episode of X files. I just wanted to show you that everything is in plain view. It is whether you wish to see it or not. Condolences to all victims and their families that have transcended. Lets stay level headed and not be overcome by fear. I refuse to be governed by the media and I live my life as close to normal as possible without taking unnecessary risks. I see this whole episode playing itself out.
