The giant ichneumon wasp, megarhyssa rixator, has an unusual method for laying eggs. Using her overly-long ovipositor to drill deep into a tree trunk, she deposits a single egg on to the surface of an immobilized wood wasp larva. Her egg turns into a larva, that will eat the paralyzed host...bit by bit.

⁣IMBANGALA talk

Elder Mkuu Mzee for the Raising Awareness Group and Dr. Tdka Maat Kilimanjaro for the University of Kmt Press discuss various topics centered around the importance of educating our Afrikan youth. Topics included the Expanded Edition of the book "Maat".

sbA Tdka Maat Kilimanjaro suggests that we all read the great living scholar (that's right, he's still alive) Ayi Kwei Armah's works. We should especially dive into the three works we reference in the conversation, Two Thousand Seasons, The Healers and Kmt in the House of Life.


The discussion continues with the new full color volume release of "Kmt Indigenous Afrikan Population", the "Expanded Edition of Afrikan Time" and many other interesting perspectives. The discourse was a lively one.

Mhenga Khalid Muhammad: Police Brutality

News documentary from 1968 hosted by George Foster, exploring the legacy of oppression that remains over 100 years after the abolition of that peculiar intitution. In Part 1, Foster visits Charleston, SC and speaks with both descendents of slaves and slave owners. The cameras capture a sermon by Rev. Henry Butler of the Mother Emmanuel AME Church (where Denmark Vesey planned an unsuccessful slave revolt in 1822 and Dylan Roof would later kill 9 church members in 2015). In Part 2, the cameras go to Mississippi to speak with former sharecroppers and political activist FANNIE LOU HAMER. In the final segment, we travel to Chicago, where Prof. JAMES TURNER and activist CALVIN LOCKRIDGE educate young people about revolution. Ebony Magazine editor and historian LERONE BENNETT offers a poignant analogy to describe the times we are in today.

The Raising Awareness Group presents Dr. Tdka Maat Kilimanjaro and Elder Mkuu Mzee as they passionately discuss the death throes of the European aging economic and its' symbiotic political system. Concentrating on Chapter 37 they highlight the issues that we face as Afrikan people.

Of course Capitalism is the driving force behind most if not all of our current issues in our community.



"United State's capitalist economic history is not complex---which is all the more reason that such a large group of Blacks today singing the praise of capitalism is criminal given how White ruling capitalists daily show how they necessarily must steal and rob with their military to forcefully set the terms for their profitable international accumulation of what becomes wealth."

--BAK2 {Capitalism) "Chp 37"

Non-African Linguists be like “This is a new way to quote!”
Abstract:
While conventional wisdom tells us that Asante Twi complementizer sɛ is derived from se 'say' (Amfo, 2010; E. Kweku Osam, 1994; E Kweku Osam, 1996), it is at least worth considering that understanding it as connected to homophone and homonym sɛ 'be like, resemble' would, indeed, be like the Black English way of quoting as noted by Lord (1993:151). The complementizer sɛ is typically glossed as ‘that.’ However, a corpus-based analysis of Asante Twi’s perhaps not-so-distant cousin, Black English, may point us to a more accurate alternative gloss, ‘(be) like’. It has been found that “‘be like’ is now so widely used it accounted for 20 percent of similar uses of the verb ‘be’ among a group of young AAE speakers in North Carolina” (Peterson, 2015). Asante Twi may help us understand the variable context in which aspectual/habitual be is found and also the varied context in which like is found, both of which linguists have found to be “notoriously difficult” to understand against the backdrop of European-descended varieties of English (Hofwegen & Farrington, 2015). We argue that Asante Twi sɛ is glossed as ‘that’, not from language-internal evidence, but because of recourse to glossing into “Standard English” rather than Black English which, in actuality, may be more reflective of what is going on in African languages and vice-versa. The connection between Black English be like and Asante Twi sɛ form may be a case of a common African (diasporan and continental) solution to a common linguistic problem.
