Muhammad Ali on Phil Donahue (1977)
Muhammad Ali on Phil Donahue (1977) Ambakisye-Okang Dukuzumurenyi 84 Views • 5 years ago

Muhammad Ali on daytime talk show The Phil Donahue Show in Fall 1977, a few months after his title defense against Ernie Shavers in September 1977.

------

Muhammad Ali (/ɑːˈliː/; born Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr.; January 17, 1942 – June 3, 2016) was an American professional boxer, activist, and philanthropist. Nicknamed "The Greatest", he is widely regarded as one of the most significant and celebrated sports figures of the 20th century and as one of the greatest boxers of all time.Ali was born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky, and began training as an amateur boxer at age 12. At 18, he won a gold medal in the light heavyweight division at the 1960 Summer Olympics, and turned professional later that year. He converted to Islam and became a Muslim after 1961, and eventually took the name Muhammad Ali. He won the world heavyweight championship from Sonny Liston in a major upset at age 22 in 1964. In 1966, Ali refused to be drafted into the military, citing his religious beliefs and opposition to the Vietnam War. He was arrested, found guilty of draft evasion, and stripped of his boxing titles. He appealed the decision to the Supreme Court, which overturned his conviction in 1971, but he had not fought for nearly four years and lost a period of peak performance as an athlete. His actions as a conscientious objector to the war made him an icon for the larger counterculture generation, and he was a high-profile figure of racial pride for African Americans during the civil rights movement. As a Muslim, Ali was initially affiliated with Elijah Muhammad's Nation of Islam (NOI). He later disavowed the NOI, adhering to Sunni Islam, and supporting racial integration like his former mentor Malcolm X.Ali was a leading heavyweight boxer of the 20th century, and he remains the only three-time lineal champion of that division. His joint records of beating 21 boxers for the world heavyweight title and winning 14 unified title bouts stood for 35 years. Ali is the only boxer to be named The Ring magazine Fighter of the Year six times. Ali fought Ken Norton for the third time in September 1976. The bout, which was held at Yankee Stadium, resulted in Ali winning a heavily contested decision that was loudly booed by the audience. Afterwards, he announced he was retiring from boxing to practice his faith, having converted to Sunni Islam after falling out with the Nation of Islam the previous year. - Wikipedia

Talawa Adodo, Ph.D. | Africanity, Language & Global Africa
Talawa Adodo, Ph.D. | Africanity, Language & Global Africa Okunini Talawa Adodo 30 Views • 28 days ago

How do language, culture, history, and African-centered ways of knowing help us understand the connections among African people across time and geography?

In this UWP Scholar Spotlight, contributing scholar Talawa Adodo, Ph.D. discusses his contribution to Transcendental Africanity: The Key to Defeating Afrophobia and Reclaiming Global Africa, edited by Mohamed Saliou Camara, Ph.D.

Dr. Adodo’s scholarship engages African civilizations, African and Afro-Caribbean languages, Africology, cultural continuity, and questions of African identity across time and space. His contribution to Transcendental Africanity enters the volume’s larger conversation about Africanity, Global Africa, cultural memory, identity, language, Afrophobia, belonging, resistance, and African self-determination.

His work invites us to consider an important question at the heart of the volume:

How do African people understand themselves, their histories, and their connections to one another through African-centered intellectual and cultural frameworks?

Through the UWP Scholar Spotlight Series, readers move beyond the chapter title to encounter the scholars, questions, intellectual traditions, and research behind the scholarship.

ABOUT TRANSCENDENTAL AFRICANITY

Transcendental Africanity: The Key to Defeating Afrophobia and Reclaiming Global Africa brings together ten chapters by nine scholars examining the enduring connections among Africans and Afro-descendants while confronting the historical and contemporary forces that have produced separation, displacement, and Afrophobia.

The volume creates an interdisciplinary space for thinking about Africanity, identity, culture, language, historical memory, belonging, resistance, sovereignty, and African self-determination while asking what these ideas might mean for the future of Global Africa.

The book offers relevance for African Studies, Africana Studies, Black Studies, African Diaspora Studies, Africology, History, Political Science, Cultural Studies, Language Studies, and related interdisciplinary fields.

Ghana’s Foreign Minister BLASTS South Africa Xenophobia | “We Helped Free You!” | Africa Must Unite
Ghana’s Foreign Minister BLASTS South Africa Xenophobia | “We Helped Free You!” | Africa Must Unite Kwabena Ofori Osei 30 Views • 6 months ago

Ghana’s Foreign Minister BLASTS South Africa Xenophobia | “We Helped Free You!” | Africa Must UniteAfrica is one continent, but modern divisions often threaten our shared progress and history. In this powerful broadcast, we address recent anti-African sentiments and remind the world of the deep, unbreakable bonds between Ghana and South Africa. 🌍

The discussion dives into the historical sacrifices made by African nations to end apartheid, proving that our freedom is inextricably linked. We explore official data from Ghana's National Identification Authority and reference the legendary words of Nelson Mandela to debunk myths about migration and crime. This is a call for unity, respect, and a return to the spirit of Pan-Africanism. ✊🏾

Chapters
0:00 Welcome to United States of Africa TV
2:15 Responding to Anti-African Comments
4:30 Statistics on South Africans Living in Ghana
7:00 Mandela's Acknowledgement of African Support
9:45 Financial Aid and Diplomatic Passports for Freedom Fighters
12:30 Ghana's Role in the Anti-Apartheid Struggle
14:50 The Future of Pan-African Unity and Brotherhood
16:07 Closing Remarks

Key highlights from this video include a look at Nelson Mandela's book, Long Walk to Freedom, where he specifically thanks Ghana, Nigeria, and Tanzania for their leadership in the liberation struggle. You will learn about the diplomatic passports, scholarships, and financial resources provided by nations like Liberia, Senegal, and Ghana when South African activists were declared stateless. 📖

We also address the current climate of xenophobia and why it is vital to treat crime as an individual act rather than a reason to target fellow Africans. As Kwame Nkrumah famously said, the independence of Ghana is meaningless unless it is linked to the total liberation of Africa. This video is a must-watch for anyone who believes in a united and prosperous continent. 🇬🇭🇿🇦

We want to hear from you in the comments section:
Do you believe African countries today are doing enough to preserve true Pan-African unity?
Should African leaders do more to teach the younger generation about the sacrifices made for South Africa's liberation?

How the Sahara Desert is Turning into a Farmland Oasis - GREENING THE DESERT PROJECT
How the Sahara Desert is Turning into a Farmland Oasis - GREENING THE DESERT PROJECT Baka Omubo 118 Views • 4 years ago

In the African Sahel a country called Niger bordering the Sahara Desert, the largest desert in the world, is stopping desertification and turning is deserts into an Oasis.

Regenerative Agriculture is leading the way with a technique called Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration or FMNR
FMNR was pioneered in the 1980s by Tony Rinaudo and Australian Agronomist who is widely known as the forest maker. The innovative technique has been adopted by local farmers through peer to peer learning making it cost effective and easy to implement. Over the last 40 years the visual results and the data have shown FMNR has been extremely successful in turning desert into farmland. It has regenerated 5 million hectors of degraded land, 200 million trees have been restored and has benefited 2.5 million people increasing house hold income by 18-24% the available arable land has doubled since the severe droughts of the 1970s and tree density has 10x since its all time low in the 1980s.

This is an extraordinary achievement considering Niger only receives on average 6.5 inches of rainfall a year and 80% of the country is considered a desert. The country has been effected by severe droughts and suffered huge land loss over the last decades and as a consequence Niger is one of the poorest countries in the world. However Niger has been turning this around, by turning its deserts into a farmland oasis through the technique of FMNR which you will learn more about in this video.

The Story of Post-Colonial Africa: Kwame Nkrumah
The Story of Post-Colonial Africa: Kwame Nkrumah Ambakisye-Okang Dukuzumurenyi 66 Views • 5 years ago

Long before the likes of Thomas Sankara, Robert Mugabe and Nelson Mandela burst onto the international scene as the faces of anti-imperialism in Africa, one man stood head and shoulders above his peers as the leading political voice and the very embodiment of Africa’s struggle against colonialism.

Ghana’s first president, Dr Kwame Nkrumah, took the world by storm as he led his nation to become the first black African nation to gain independence from the European powers. But just as Nkrumah’s revolutionary leadership in Ghana, would trigger a wave of independence movements all across sub-saharan Africa, his gradual decline and sudden overthrow would also become a familiar story across virtually all of Africa’s newly independent states.

This is the story of how Dr Kwame Nkrumah went from being Ghana’s messiah and a faultless hero to a political pariah, whose ultimate demise would lead to wild celebrations in the streets by the very same people that had once loved and adored him.
