In this episode of Truth Africa Series (brought to you by Historical Africa), we will be reacting to Dr. Henrik Clarke speech on religion in Africa.

The colonization of Africa was not just about political control; it also aimed to reshape African societies in the image of the colonizers.
One way this happened was through religious imposition. European powers, driven by a belief in their cultural and religious
superiority, sought to convert Africans to Christianity, often suppressing indigenous religions in the process. This cultural assimilation
served to consolidate control and legitimize colonial rule.

Religion has often been an instrument used to maintain power and control over populations. In the context of Africa, religion
was used as a tool to justify economic exploitation and the subjugation of Africans. Missionaries preached the superiority of
European Christianity, portraying African religions as primitive or demonic, and using this narrative to justify colonization and the
extraction of Africa's resources.

The conversion of Africans to foreign religions was also strategic for maintaining political and social control. By imposing their
religions, colonizers sought to weaken traditional societal structures, including indigenous spiritual practices, which often played a
significant role in governance and cultural identity. Conversion to foreign religions served to alienate Africans from their traditional
roots, making them more submissive to colonial authority.

Written by jazz singer, composer, pianist and arranger Eunice Waymon (aka Nina Simone), released on the 1966 album ''Wild Is the Wind''.

My skin is black.
My arms are long
my hair is woolly
my back is strong
strong enough to take the pain
inflicted again and again
what do they call me
My name is Aunt Sarah
My name is Aunt Sarah
Aunt Sarah.

My skin is yellow.
My hair is long
between two worlds
I do belong
my father was rich and white
he forced my mother late one night
what do they call me
my name is Saffronia
my name is Saffronia.

My skin is tan.
My hair is fine
my hips invite you
my mouth like wine
whose little girl am I?
anyone who has money to buy
what do they call me
my name is Sweet Thing
my name is Sweet Thing.

My skin is brown.
My manner is tough.
I'll kill the first mother' I see.
My life has been rough.
I'm awfully bitter these days
because my parents were slaves.
What do they call me
My name is
PEACHES!

Note: Per text on video, i disagree with the usage of "Broken English" as that reduces our Black Languages and takes away our agency. It has a eurasian colonialist and racist origin. It's their perspective on how they look down on our languages, and we need to stop using their concepts as that has us self-discriminate. That aside, this is a great song covering the injected oppression of destroying one's melanin through skin lightening cancer creams.

Sudan government announce $643 Million investment in Railway Network redevelopment - The Sudan railway network, half of which is abandoned, is set for a US$ 643 million makeover as part of current Sudan government efforts to revive an economy ravaged by decades of dictatorship and global isolation. The African Development Bank, China State Construction Engineering Corp. Ltd., and unidentified Gulf firms, according to Sudan Railways Corporation (SRC), are keen on assisting the North African country in restoring the approximately 2,400 kilometers of idle rail lines.

The railway networking project will be carried out in stages. The government intends to spend US$17 million in the first stage on emergency repairs to parts of the network that are currently in use. This network, according to the SRC's general manager, Waleed Mahmoud Ahmed, during an interview with sudan news agency, is critical for the country's economic development.

Currulao is the main traditional genre of Abibifo⁣ɔ music out of the Southern Pacific Coast of 'colombia' and Northern Pacific Coast of 'ecuador'. This group is specifically from Timbiqui, Cauca, a Pacific Coastal town in the biogeographic Choco region. Timbiqui is also the name of the river where the community of Timbiqui is located. This song is about singing to the river asking for a safe passage, to let them go up the river, don't drown us (no me vayas a hogar), don't wet us (no me vayas a mojar), let me go up (dejame subi'). This is a continuation of evidence of our Kmtyu worldview regardless of location and colonial language. Reverence and respect for nature, the oceans, the rivers, and the source of life, water. This can be seen as a libation song for traveling up the Timbiqui river safely. The main instrument is the marimba, made from the palm trees in the Choco rainforest, and said to be a reconstructed descendant of the balafon made by Abibifo⁣ɔ in a new context. We carried Abibiman with us!
