In this video we look at the African origin of mathematics. This video is dedicated to Niousere Kalala Omotunde. May his great soul rest in peace. His knowledge is what inspired this series of videos in the first place. I will forever be grateful to have come across the works of this great mind. Thank You great teacher, Kalala. Your message was heard and understood. Your words live on forever in the mind and hearts of your students. * N.K.
