⁣Measurement of the Three Acres -- Abibitumi-Adjacent Land

In light of the recent global protests against racism, calls to #DefundThePolice and the ravages of the COVID-19 pandemic, one question has been repeatedly asked:

“How can the Black community create sustainable change for ourselves?”

The first discussion we hosted focused on why it is important for our community to focus on sustainable change.

For part two, this panel will look at the intersections of healing and institution building. Institutions are reflections of the people that build them. We will focus on the ways that healing can positively impact the development of Black institutions.

July 6 @ 6pm, Facebook Live on Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle

Panelists:

Bakari Jones, Business strategist

Danielle Torain, Executive Director – OSI-Baltimore

Wekesa Madzimoyo. Co-Director – AYA Educational Institute

Shawna Murray-Browne LCSW-C, Founder – Kindred Wellness

Moderator:

Dayvon Love, Director of Public Policy – Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle

Join the conversation, post your questions and comments and get involved in moving our community to more sustainable solutions.

Cubed, powdered or granulated - the sweetness of sugar is enjoyed in all its forms. But what happens to the body beyond the initial taste? The answers range from concerning to shocking. Especially when the world’s largest food and beverage company has been accused of using sugar in baby food available in Nigeria and other countries in the global south - something that is not done in Europe. Sugar consumption unravels a list of physical and mental health challenges that present consumers with an important decision to make. Examining the sinister side of sugar, Laila Johnson-Salami and Adefemi Akinsanya have this report.

⁣This is the modern-day story of a Black native peoples' remarkable victory
over western colonial terrorism. A Pacific island rose up in arms against
giant mining corporation Rio Tinto Zinc (RTZ) - and won despite a
military occupation and blockade. When RTZ decided to step up production
at the Panguna Mine on the island of Bougainville, they got more than
they bargained for.

The island's Black people had enough of seeing their environment ruined and
being treated as pawns by RTZ. RTZ refused to compensate them, so the
people decided it was time to put an end to outside interference in the
islands affairs. To do this they forcibly closed down the mine.

The Papua New Guinea Army (PNGDF) were mobilized in an attempt to put
down the rebellion. The newly formed Bougainville Revolutionary Army
(BRA) began the fight with bows & arrows and sticks & stones.
Against a heavily armed adversary they still managed to retain control
of most of their island.

Realizing they were beaten on the ground, the PNGDF imposed a gunboat
blockade around Bougainville, in an attempt to strangle the BRA into
submission. But the blockade seemed to have little or no effect. With no
shipments getting in or out of the island, how did new electricity
networks spring up in BRA held territory? How were BRA troops able to
drive around the island without any source of petrol or diesel?

What was happening within the blockade was an environmental and
spiritual revolution. The ruins of the old Panguna mine were being
recycled... to supply the raw materials for the worlds first
eco-revolution.

The Conference which took place in Ghana - Accra, brought together freedom fighters from all over Africa including independent and colonized states, to address the way forward to the objective of Africa's unity.

A grass-roots campaign has started in Uganda against the increasing numbers of sexual assaults on women. According to one rights group, 90 percent of Ugandan women have experienced sexual harassment of some sort. Women are now fighting back by using social media and the courts.

The Mis-Education of the Negro – Carter G. Woodson (Audiobook)

The Mis-Education of the Negro by Dr. Carter G. Woodson is one of the most influential works in Black intellectual history. First published in 1933, this book exposes how colonial and Eurocentric education systems shape Black consciousness, distort self-image, and reinforce psychological dependence.

In this audiobook, Woodson challenges listeners to rethink education, leadership, culture, and liberation—arguing that true freedom begins with mental decolonization and self-knowledge.

This audiobook is shared for educational and historical purposes, supporting African-centered learning, Black political education, and the preservation of revolutionary Black thought.

📘 This audiobook is essential for:
• Students of Black history and education
• Pan-Africanists and cultural organizers
• Educators and lifelong learners
• Anyone seeking to understand systemic indoctrination and liberation

🎧 Listen carefully. This book is not meant to entertain—it is meant to awaken.

Huge deserted beaches surrounded by dunes, where boats masks have forgotten the company only the remains of unfortunate creatures are called skeletons Coast. This side of the Atlantic, east of Namibia, is the gateway to the Namib Desert, which follows the Kalahari. There we find groups Bushmen and Himba, atavistic residents of these arid regions.

The Bushmen demonstrate their integration in the most hostile of friendly means by hunting and gathering techniques. Joining them pursue their prey poisoned arrows wounds on an expedition lasting several days and observe the survival of an entire clan in the harsh dry season.

The Himba us their nomadic life, in which everything revolves around the goats and cows grazing. Among its strongest features see the symbolism of their hair and body ornaments, his main artistic expression, know the rules that govern the formation of polygamous marriages, and will attend the rituals "esuko" where women gain maturity within the tribe.

He is also a genuine practitioner of the Kongo spiritual tradition. He is initiated into the three "secret societies" Lemba, Khimba and Kimpasi. Lemba is the foundation for several African based religious practices including Palo Mayombe (Cuba), Vodou Petro (Haiti) and Candomble Angola (Brasil). African cosmology of the Bantu-Kongo explores the Bantu-Kongo religious and philosophical teachings, as well as concepts of law and crime. It connects the reader with one of the most ancient and powerful spiritual traditions-explore "seven-direction walk" of our origin and links to society, nature and the universe.

Thirty-five years ago string theory took physics by storm, promising the coveted unified theory of nature’s forces that Einstein valiantly sought but never found. In the intervening decades, string theory has brought a collection of mind-boggling possibilities into the lexicon of mainstream thinking—extra dimensions of space, holographic worlds, and multiple universes. Some researchers view these developments as symptoms of string theory having lost its way. Others argue that string theory, although very much still a work in progress, is revealing stunning new qualities of reality. Join leading minds in theoretical physics for a whirlwind ride through the twists and turns of string theory—its past, its future, and what it tells us about the search for the universe’s final theory.
