"Never let anybody tell you and me the odds are against us—I don’t even want to hear that. As soon as you think the odds are against you, forget it. The odds are not against you. The odds are against you only when you’re scared. The only things that makes odds against you is a scared mind. When you get all of that fright off of you, there’s no such thing as odds against you. Because when a man knows that when he starts playing with you, he’s got to kill you, that man is not going to play with you. But if he knows when he’s playing with you that you’re going to back up and be nonviolent and peaceful and respectable and responsible, why, you and me will never come out of his claws.

Let him know that you’re peaceful, let him know that you’re respectful and you respect him, and that you’re law-abiding, and that you want to be a good citizen, and all those right-thinking things. But let him know at the same time that you’re ready to do to him what he’s been trying to do to you. And then you’ll always have peace. You’ll always have it. Learn a lesson from history, learn a lesson from history.

I must say this once before we close. I don’t want you to think that I’m coming back here to rabble-rouse, or to get somebody excited. I don’t think you have to excite our people; the man already has excited us. And I don’t want you to think that I’m ready for some unintelligent action, or some irresponsible action, or for just any old thing just to be doing something. No. I hope that all of us can sit down with a cool head and a clear mind and analyze the situation, in the back room, anywhere, analyze the situation; and after we give the proper analysis of what we’re confronted by, then let us be bold enough to take whatever steps that analysis says must be taken. Once we get it, then let’s do it, and we’ll be able to get some kind of result in this freedom struggle."

In a bold and historic move, Zambian President Hakainde Hichilema and Botswana’s President Mokgweetsi Masisi are joining forces to challenge Africa’s colonial past — starting with the borders that divide us. This inspirational story highlights their vision to break down artificial boundaries imposed by colonial rule, fostering true Pan-African unity, trade, and mobility.

This is more than politics — it’s a movement. A movement toward an Africa where people are not separated by lines drawn by outsiders, but united by shared heritage, culture, and purpose. What does this mean for Africa’s future? How could this change the continent forever?

Join us as we explore how this powerful collaboration could set the stage for a borderless Africa and a united generation of change-makers. 🇿🇲🤝🇧🇼

Victoria Santa Cruz | Me Gritaron Negra (Afro Perú). ‘Me Gritaron Negra’ es uno de los poemas más importantes e intensos de Victoria, porque además ella misma es el gran protagonista: lo escribió inspirada en un mal rato que pasó en su propia la infancia

‘Me Gritaron Negra’ es uno de los poemas más importantes e intensos de Victoria,
porque además ella misma es el gran protagonista: lo escribió inspirada en un mal
rato que pasó en su propia la infancia. Victoria comentó muchos años después que
una niña blanca llegó a vivir a su barrio cuando ella tenía cinco o siete años y le prohibió
a sus amigas jugar con ella, “si juegan con esa negrita yo me voy”, les dijo. Ese episodio
la llenó de un resentimiento, que luego se transformó en un orgullo y una valentía que
dieron grandes frutos y reconocimientos a nivel mundial, no por algo Victoria representa
el “orgullo negro” de una raza maravillosa, la suya.Victoria Santa Cruz, heroína del arte negro peruano, le preguntaron en su última entrevista: ¿qué te ha enseñado el racismo?, respondió: "dentro de poco, dejaré esta vida ... y quiero irme en paz, con la conciencia tranquila y ya veremos qué sucede aquí . Pero todo está debilitado y dislocado en el mundo. Todos están perdiendo porque realmente, no es así cómo se pelea".

Tenia siete años apenas, apenas siete años,
¡Qué siete años!
¡No llegaba a cinco siquiera!
De pronto unas voces en la calle
me gritaron ¡Negra!
¡Negra! ¡Negra! ¡Negra! ¡Negra! ¡Negra! ¡Negra! ¡Negra!
¿Soy acaso negra? me dije SI!
¿Qué cosa es ser negra?
¡Negra!
Y yo no sabía la triste verdad que aquello escondía.
¡Negra!
Y me sentí negra,
¡Negra!
Como ellos decían
¡Negra!
Y retrocedí
¡Negra!
Como ellos querían
¡Negra!
Y odie mis cabellos y mis labios gruesos
y mire apenada mi carne tostada
Y retrocedí
¡Negra!
Y retrocedí
¡Negra! ¡Negra! ¡Negra! ¡Negra!...
Y pasaba el tiempo,
y siempre amargada
Seguía llevando a mi espalda
mi pesada carga
¡Y como pesaba¡
Me alacié el cabello,
me polveé la cara,
y entre mis cabellos siempre resonaba la misma palabra
¡Negra! ¡Negra! ¡Negra! ¡Negra!
¡Negra! ¡Negra! ¡Negra!
Hasta que un día que retrocedía, retrocedía y que iba a caer
¡Negra! ¡Negra! ¡Negra! ¡Negra!...
¿Y qué?
¡Negra!
Si
¡Negra!
Soy
¡Negra!
Negra
¡Negra!
Negra soy
¡Negra! Si
¡Negra!
Soy
¡Negra!
Negra
Negra soy
De hoy en adelante no quiero
laciar mi cabello
No quiero
Y voy a reírme de aquellos,
que por evitar – según ellos –
que por evitarnos algún sinsabor
Llaman a los negros gente de color
¡ Y de que color ¡
NEGRO
¡ Y que lindo suena ¡
NEGRO
¡ Y que ritmo tiene ¡
NEGRO NEGRO NEGRO NEGRO...
Al fin
Al fin comprendí
AL FIN
Ya no retrocedo
AL FIN
Y avanzo segura
AL FIN
Avanzo y espero
AL FIN
Y bendigo al cielo porque quiso Dios
que negro azabache fuese mi color
Y ya comprendí
AL FIN
Ya tengo la llave
NEGRO NEGRO NEGRO NEGRO...
¡ Negra Soy ¡

The islands of San Andres, Providence/Providencia, and Santa Catalina, were originally colonized by the british and therefore are more culturally similar to the other Black populated english-speaking Caribbean islands, although they are a departamento (akin to state in the u.s.) in the South "american" nation state of colombia today. This documentary shows how music brought by men who worked on the sea, connected them to other Black people and Black people music of the wider Caribbean.


From Original Source:
Wi Da Dis is a series of short documentaries that highlight the cultural aspect of the community of Old Providence and Santa Catalina Island, with a native point of view around our music, dance and gastronomy, pleased in four audiovisual archive to transmit this knowledge for generations to come. CARIBBEAN SOUND: The second chapter addresses the different musical genres that came to the island brought by sailors that travel in the Caribbean and used the sea to bring different rhythms and sounds to Providence and Santa Catalina.CREDITS: Direction and original idea - ROBERT BRITTONGeneral production - JENNIFER ARCHBOLD (Ad honorem) Field production - KAREN LIVINGSTONDirector´s assistant - NICOLE SCHNOORCamera and editing - JOEL PEÑALOZACamera and editing - GALVIS NEWBALLOriginal music - JOHNY BRANDTSound assistant - NITCHMAN ROBINSONCover art - ARELIS HOWARDCover illustration - LUIS HOWARDVoice and narration - CHARLIE ARCHBOLDInvestigation assistant - MIGUEL PENILLAGeneral consulting - RICARDO VEGAPostproduction - NICOLA MORETTI More info: www.oldprovidencerecords.com
