African Fashion: The Sophisticated Craftsmanship Behind West Central African Clothing Kwabena Ofori Osei 21 Views • 1 month ago

In the Early Modern Period (around 1500-1800), West Central Africa (modern day Angola, the Congos, and Gabon) was home to a variety of different types of cloth and clothing. In this video, we discuss some of the textiles, jewelry, and other adornment that people in this region wore to cover up or show off status, primarily focusing on the kingdoms of Kongo, Ndongo, and to a lesser extent Loango. Join us as we explore some Central African Fashion History! This video is part of Untold Black History III, a collaboration for Black History Month discussing interesting and positive Black history from around the world.

By means of multimodal multidisciplinary analysis and participant observation of victims of bedroom colonialism (BC) via fieldwork in their natural environment, we demonstrate multiple examples of these concepts in their socio-cultural milieu. We find that, as intended by anti-Black perpetrators of BC (eurasians), bedroom colonialism has and continues to pose a significant impediment to the acquisition, maintenance, and expansion of Abibitumi 'Black Power' and Abibifahodie 'Black Liberation'. In conclusion, once the root causes of bedroom colonialism are understood, conceptual clarity may be attained and correct courses of action may be pursued.ABOUT: Ɔbenfo Ọbádélé Kambon is a world-renowned linguist and scholar and the founder of Abibitumi, the largest Black social education network globally. The name "Abibitumi" is derived from the Akan language, spoken in parts of West Africa, particularly Ghana. It roughly translates to "Black/African Communication" or "Black/African Intelligence."He's an Associate Professor at the University of Ghana, winner of multiple prestigious awards, and is a key figure in African Studies. His work spans linguistics, historical research, and African repatriation efforts.
