Dive into this riveting exploration of Time as we traverse the vibrant African landscape. Through the eyes of Tariro, a young girl deeply entwined in her African roots, we scrutinize the traditional concept of time.

This video unveils how time in Africa isn't merely a set of ticking hands or a digital display but it is akin to a flowing river, shaped by community events and shared experiences.

We will delve into the fascinating works of African philosophers like E.J. Alagoa and Kanu Ikechukwu Anthony, exploring the harmonic interplay of spirituality, environment, and society in the African concepts of time and causality.

The effect of globalization and the advent of Western time values are also discussed, exhibiting how it subtly fuses with the African rhythm, reshaping societal behavior.

Our journey concludes with a vital introspection: Is life trapped within the divisions of time, or is it time that is framed by life and culture its rhythm?

Was this evolution beneficial or has it steered us away from the heartbeat of life?

Discover how time metamorphosizes from a measurer into a storytelling entity of shared experiences and shifts in realities across African landscapes.

Welcome back to Powered by Nyame! This week's episode focuses on mother's love, being a mother, and mothering--the actions of mother that flows from mother's love. I share personal experiences, along with the anonymous experiences of others, beginning most appropriately with my mom, Elaine! A person's experiences can't speak for others, but it can speak to others. I hope mine will be insightful but also invite discussion around this topic. Let me know what you all think. Stay well.

The feeling of security and the reality of security don't always match, says computer-security expert Bruce Schneier. At TEDxPSU, he explains why we spend billions addressing news story risks, like the "security theater" now playing at your local airport, while neglecting more probable risks -- and how we can break this pattern.

"Follow the Drinking Gourd" is a folk song that originated during the time of slavery in the United States. It served as a coded message to help enslaved people escape to freedom along the Underground Railroad. The "drinking gourd" refers to the Big Dipper constellation, which points towards the North Star, Polaris, a guiding light towards the north and freedom. Morgan Freeman, the acclaimed actor and narrator, has narrated or discussed the song in various contexts due to his interest in history and his involvement in projects related to African American culture and heritage.
