Las Caras Lindas is a famous song by the ⁣renown Black Boricua singer, Ismael Rivera. It is a song that gave us Abibifo⁣ɔ from the spanish-terrorized regions of the world much pride in our Blackness. The Beautiful Faces of My Black People!

Lyrics translated to english:



A la le, a la le, a
la lee, la la le le

The beautiful faces
of my Black people
Are a parade of
blossoming molasses
That when it passes
in front of me, my heart rejoices
In their Blackness

The beautiful faces
of my dark-skinned race
Hold tears, sorrow,
and pain
They are the truths
that life challenges
But they carry much
love within

We are the molasses
that laughs
The molasses that
cries
We are the molasses
that loves
And in every kiss,
it is moving

That's why I live
proud of their color
We are kind,
dark-skinned people, with clear poetry
They have their
rhythm, they have melody
The beautiful faces
of my Black people

The beautiful faces
(how beautiful, but), the beautiful faces (but look how beautiful
they are)
The beautiful faces
of my Black people
They have, they
have, they have, they have tears, much melody, I tell you
They have beauty and
they also have very beautiful poetry

The beautiful faces,
the beautiful faces
The beautiful faces
of my Black people
Beautiful faces of
Black people, of which I have many in my calm moments
The beautiful faces
of my Black people are a blast

The beautiful faces,
the beautiful faces (how beautiful they are)
The beautiful faces
of my Black people
We are, I tell you,
the molasses that laughs, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, that sings and that
cries
And in every kiss,
very moving and captivating

The beautiful faces
(beautiful, beautiful), the beautiful faces (beautiful, beautiful,
beautiful, how beautiful they are)
The beautiful faces
of my Black people
I tell you that in
Portobelo, Panama, I saw the most beautiful and pure face
And that's why my
heart rejoices in its Blackness, that one is truly beautiful

The beautiful faces,
the beautiful faces
The beautiful faces
of my Black people (it sounds)

How beau-, how
beau-, how beautiful they are
Pure Blackness
How beau-, how
beau-, how beautiful they are

The beautiful faces,
the beautiful faces (but how beautiful they are)
The beautiful faces
of my Black people

Listen to me, but
how They are beautiful
They are pretty,
they are lovely
They are beautiful,
how pretty they are
Pretty as you'll
see, that's how they are
Pretty faces like
that one that tells you with a playful tease
A sweet, playful
tease with your sweet, melon-like heart

For the pretty faces
of Llorens Torres
Tell them, Mario

How pretty, how
pretty, how pretty, how pretty, how lovely they are
How beautiful they
are, very beautiful, how lovely they are, how pretty they are
Pretty faces,
pretty, pretty they are, take me!

How pretty they are,
they are pretty
But how pretty they
are, but how pretty they are
How pretty they are,
they are pretty

Many pretty faces
But how pretty, how
pretty, how pretty they are, here they come!

For all the pretty
faces of latin america

But how pretty, but
look how pretty the pretty faces are
Of my Black people,
there are so many
The pretty faces,
the pretty faces
The pretty faces of
my Black people

A parade of
Blackness, of the pure kind that comes from down there
The pretty faces of
my Black people, they are a playful tease
The pretty faces,
the pretty faces
The pretty faces of
my Black people

Molasses that
laughs, molasses that laughs, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
Oh, that sings and
that cries
And in every kiss,
so moving
But how pretty

#thelandofkam #therealankh #maa_aankh what does the Ankh or Aankh cross really mean? In this video, I give a more esoteric explanation about the ankh, how it relates to Kongo Spirituality, the dikenga dia Kongo (Kongo Cross) and how the aankh can be used as a talisman that empowers true Kemetic followers.

About Derric "Rau Khu" Moore
I practice Kamta, a form of Kemetic (Ancient Egyptian) Shamanism that draws from the Kemetic theology and the Kongo-Angolan dikenga (Kongo Cross) philosophy. That has been combined with African American Spiritualism and Afro-Cuban Espiritismo Cruzado (Crossed Spiritism). My goal is to normalize the Kemetic Way of Life by providing practical adaptations to our ancient ancestral way of living.

NKYINKYIM: The Creation of an African Museum | Kwame Akoto Bamfo | TEDxAccra
NKYINKYIM: The Creation of an African Museum | Kwame Akoto Bamfo | TEDxAccra Kwadwo Danmeara Tòkunbọ̀ Datɛ 23 Views • 3 months ago

Museums have long been unwelcoming or intimidating spaces for many, particularly ordinary Africans. In this powerful talk, Kwame Akoto Bamfo reimagines the museum experience through the lens of African heritage and community engagement. By embracing change as a constant force, Kwame demonstrates how interactive art and inclusive spaces can serve as healing, dialogue, and transformation mediums.

Through his work, he challenges traditional perceptions of museums and invites communities to reconnect with their identity and heritage. This talk is a compelling exploration of how art can celebrate cultural freedom and inspire others to embrace their role in shaping change narratives. Kwame Akoto-Bamfo is a Ghanaian sculptor, educator, and activist renowned for his dedication to preserving African history and promoting restorative justice through art. He earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) and Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in painting and sculpture from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology.

His seminal work, the Nkyinkyim Installation, is an evolving art project comprising over 1,500 portraits of Africans in the diaspora. This installation pays homage to the victims of the Transatlantic slave trade and is prominently featured at the National Memorial for Peace and Justice in Montgomery, Alabama.

In 2017, Akoto-Bamfo gained international attention with his "Faux-Reedom" exhibition, which featured 1,200 sculpted heads representing Ghana's enslaved ancestors. This powerful display questioned Ghana's independence and highlighted neo-colonial legacies.

Beyond his installations, Akoto-Bamfo actively participates in public speaking, research, and lectures, focusing on archiving and promoting African history and cultural heritage. His work has been featured in various documentaries and miniseries, including "Enslaved" (2020) and "The Art of Healing" (2022).

His contributions to art and activism have earned him several accolades, such as the GUBA Influential Artist of the Year in 2019 and the inaugural Kuenyehia Prize for Contemporary Art.

Through his art, Kwame Akoto-Bamfo continues challenging historical narratives, fostering healing, and inspiring restorative justice across the African diaspora. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at
