Kumina is one of Jamaica's most powerful and least understood African-derived traditions — a religion, a music form, and a way of speaking to the ancestors that has survived nearly 200 years. In this video, we trace Kumina's true origin story, break down the music and movement behind the ceremony, and take you inside the annual Rebirthday ceremony held in Fairy Hill, Portland — an all-night ritual of drumming, dance, and ancestral connection that most Jamaicans have never witnessed firsthand.
Unlike many Afro-Jamaican traditions, Kumina was not brought to Jamaica through slavery. It arrived after emancipation, carried by free Kongo people from Central Africa who came to Jamaica as indentured laborers in the 1840s–1860s. What they brought with them — the drumming, the language, the belief system — remains almost entirely intact today, still practiced in communities across St. Thomas, Portland, St. Mary, and St. Catherine.
In this video you'll learn:
🥁 The real origin of Kumina and its connection to the Kongo Kingdom
🥁 How the bandu and playing kyas drums carry Kumina's rhythm and history
🥁 Why one of Kumina's drums was disguised as a rum cask
🥁 What "myal" possession means within the ceremony
🥁 What happens during the Rebirthday ceremony in Fairy Hill, Portland
🥁 How Kumina shaped Nyabinghi drumming and modern reggae and dancehall

Lyrics:

Is this what it feels like
To be loved like this?
I don’t know but it feels right
And it’s just one kiss
Falling in love inna real life
Ignorance sure feels like bliss
Cause I’ve been missing out
But you’re with me now and I’m
Just so grateful for your love

Re-reading conversations
And smiling off my face
Laughing at the way you say things
You’ve really got a way
Reliving every moment
Looking forward to the day
I won’t have to let you go
Just hold me close

Is this what it feels like
To be loved like this?
I don’t know but it feels right
And it’s just one kiss
Falling in love inna real life
Ignorance sure feels like bliss
Cause I’ve been missing out
But you’re with me now and I’m...

Aye, you ever wake up
And cya think ‘bout no meal
Becau’ you weak inna yuh knees
And caught up inna yuh feels
You eva fed up and haffi rewrite yuh speech
Is like the feelings too real
You all a send and delete
You ever lay down but cyaa sleep a night
Like without we one another, no, da bed ya no nice
Feel a yearning
Fire burning
Tell me have you ever been in love

Is this what it feels like?
To be loved like this
I don’t know but it feels right
And it’s just one kiss
Falling in love inna real life
Ignorance can feel like bliss
But I’ve been missing out
But you’re with me now and I’m
Just so grateful for this love

Just so grateful

Britain didn't discover Iraq. It invented it. After World War One, the British Empire stitched together three Ottoman provinces that had never been a single country, installed a foreign king who had never set foot on Iraqi soil, staged a referendum with a 96% approval rate, and locked in control of one of the largest oil reserves ever found. This is the full story of how Iraq was manufactured — not for the people who lived there, but for the petroleum beneath their feet.

From the secret Sykes-Picot Agreement to the Cairo Conference of 1921, from Churchill's air bombing campaigns to the Turkish Petroleum Company's 75-year concession, this video traces the real forces behind Iraq's creation. It's a story of broken promises, imperial cartography, puppet monarchies, and oil — always oil.

The consequences didn't end in 1932 or 1958. The borders drawn in hotel rooms by colonial officials who never lived in the region shaped every crisis Iraq has faced for over a century — and the world is still living with the fallout.

For over a million years, every human on Earth was dark-skinned — and the reason will completely rewire how you think about the human body.

If you shaved a chimpanzee, the skin underneath would be pale pink. So why is human skin bare, exposed, and — for 99% of our species' history — uniformly dark?

The answer isn't really about color at all. It's about fur, sweat, endurance running, and a single evolutionary "design package" that built the body you're using right now.

In this video, we trace how losing our fur forced our ancestors to evolve a biological sunscreen on the African equator — and why dark skin, not pale skin, is the true human default.

Dans cette vidéo :
• Why every great ape has pale skin under its fur — but humans don't
• How losing body hair turned us into the planet's best endurance machine
• The brutal biology of UVB, folate, and why pale skin near the equator was a death sentence
• How melanin became the keystone holding the entire human body together
• Why light skin is a recent "edit" that only appeared after we left Africa

ABSTRACT: Implied in theories of Second Language Acquisition (SLA) is the notion that language learning is analogous to obtaining or acquiring a possession – thus the use of the term ‘acquisition.’ While this interpretation has gone relatively unchallenged in the literature, this article introduces a new analogy whereby language learning is seen as analogous to a process of permanent or semi-permanent migration towards a new socio-linguistic L2 space. As such, a theory of endogenous and exogenous motivation is delineated, entailing a dynamic interplay between internal (primarily psychological) and external (primarily sociological) push-pull factors. Endogenous and exogenous push-pull factors, together with various other personal factors, contribute to learner decisions to migrate towards, move away from or remain inert with regard to the target language. Further, motivation is framed in the larger theoretical context of causation.
