Africa Unity – Exploring the Principle of Collaboration Through African Indigenous Psychology examines how the core values of African indigenous psychology can foster a sense of unity and collaboration across the continent. Professor Oluwafemi Esan, Professor of Transpersonal Psychology and Education, at El-Roi London University, talks about The Transpersonal Education Philosophy. By delving into traditional African worldviews, which emphasize community, interconnectedness, and collective well-being, this exploration highlights how these principles can be applied in modern contexts to address challenges such as social inequality, economic development, and cultural preservation. ___________________________________ Want To Learn More About The Obehi Podcast?

Christine Valters Paintner is joined by author Claudia Love Mair for a series of video conversations. Each month they take up a new book by or about a voice of color. The community is invited to purchase and read the books in advance and participate actively in this journey of deepening, discovery, and transformation. This month they are joined by Therese Taylor-Stinson to discuss her book Walking the Way of Harriet Tubman: Public Mystic and Freedom Fighter. Harriet Tubman, freedom fighter and leader in the Underground Railroad, is one of the most significant figures in U.S. history. Her courage and determination in bringing enslaved people to freedom have established her as an icon of the abolitionist movement. But behind the history of the heroine called “Moses” was a woman of deep faith. In Walking the Way of Harriet Tubman, Therese Taylor-Stinson introduces Harriet, a woman born into slavery whose unwavering faith and practices in spirituality and contemplation carried her through insufferable abuse and hardship to become a leader for her people. Her profound internal liberation came from deep roots in mysticism, Christianity, nature spirituality, and African Indigenous beliefs that empowered her own escape from enslavement–giving her the strength and purpose to lead others on the road to freedom. Harriet's lived spirituality illuminates a profound path forward for those of us longing for internal freedom, as well as justice and equity in our communities. As people of color, we must cultivate our full selves for our own liberation and the liberation of our communities. As the luminous significance of Harriet Tubman's spiritual life is revealed, so too is the path to our own spiritual truth, advocacy, and racial justice as we follow in her footsteps.

Regenerative farming practices rooted in African-Indigenous wisdom and technologies are part of the solution to feeding the world without undermining its ecology Soul Fire Farm is an example of that. co founded by Leah Penniman and   Located in upstate New York soul fire farm is  an Afro-Indigenous centered community farm committed dedicated to uprooting racism and seeding sovereignty in the food system.  Soul Fire grows mostly perennial crops—berries, orchards of fruit trees, medicinal herbs—that help capture carbon. They also practice silvopasture, a system in which livestock like poultry and sheep graze among fruit trees, which also works to mitigate the effects of climate change. Much of what is grown is donated to the residents of Albany neighborhoods classed as food deserts, although Penniman prefers the term “food apartheid.” They raise and distribute life-giving food as a means to end food apartheid.  It's an alternative to the capitalist  economic model. It's about relationships. It's not just a model of selling.”[9]With deep reverence for the land and wisdom of their ancestors, they  work to reclaim their collective right to belong to the earth and to have agency in the food system.Soul Fire farm  bring diverse communities together on this healing land to share skills on sustainable agriculture, natural building, spiritual activism, health, and environmental justice.They  are training the next generation of activist-farmers and strengthening the movements for food sovereignty and community self-determination. Their  food sovereignty programs reach over 50,000 people each year, including farmer training for Black and Brown growers, reparations and land return initiatives for northeast farmers, food justice workshops for urban youth, home gardens for city-dwellers living under food apartheid, doorstep harvest delivery for food insecure households, and systems and policy education for public decision-makers. Today Joy Moore and I  talk to Briana Alfaro about the Soul Fire farms programs and the importance of its trainings to create the new activists of the future who will help heal our planet.  Briana Alfaro  co-creates educational offerings as Administrative Program Manager at Soul Fire Farm.    The post Afro-Indigenous healing on Soul Fire Farm appeared first on KPFA.

(ABSTRACT) With over 6 million coronavirus pandemic deaths, the African continent reported the lowest death rate despite having a high disease burden. The African community's resilience to the pandemic has been attributed to climate and weather conditions, herd immunity, repeated exposure to infectious organisms that help stimulate the immune system, and a disproportionately large youth population. In addition, functional foods, herbal remedies, and dietary supplements contain micronutrients and bioactive compounds that can help boost the immune system. #africa #herbs #immune Frazzoli C, Grasso G, Husaini DC, Ajibo DN, Orish FC, Orisakwe OE.

The resurgence of the “divine feminine” as a discursive concept and framework in religious studies and in popular practice in Europe and the United States, raises the question of the salience of the concept in African Religions. In this talk, drawing from ethnographic research with Luba women whose religious practice informs their positionality in war, Georgette Mulunda Ledgister demonstrated the African indigenous orientation towards un-gendered expressions of religion that allow practitioners to transcend the strictures and the structures of gender.

I am reclaiming the narratives that have been given to us about who we are as African Indigenous people with this simple prayer. Remembering our greatness before we became known as "slaves". In 1863 President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, declaring more than 3 million slaves free in the Confederate states. It was not until June 19th 1865, that these 3 million would learn slavery was abolished. The implementing of making this day a recognized federal holiday, and on the shared weekend of the Summer Solstice, has a different frequency. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/houseofnekhbet/message

sent $$$ this week to The Black Yard Farm Cooperative.instagram.com/blackyardfarmcoop / gofund.me/6f7125d7“The Black Yard Farm Cooperative was created by 5 young Black and Latinx farmers/entrepreneurs in the Bronx working together to build a supportive community for Black farmers and creatives. It’s no coincidence that the people in this country who are most affected by food insecurity have the least access and control of the production of our food. This needs to change. It is crucial that we have autonomy over our food system. The Black Yard Farm Cooperative is dedicated to disrupting the racist and exclusionary spaces that prevent Black farmers from connecting to the land and healing.We need to raise $200,000 for the following:1. Develop a successful and replicable farm cooperative model that can be handed to new black farmers in support of their agrarian journeys; initially focused on livestock, cut flowers and vegetables.2. Purchase materials including infrastructure, tools, supplies and equipment.3. Use African American and African Indigenous history to reimagine and develop educational curriculum for a future that is prosperous and sustainable.4. Work with others to support land access to Black farmers.We are crowdfunding money because we are not just starting a farm, we are continuing a movement. It’s the responsibility of all of us to work together to build an alternative to the current oppressive systems we live under. This is just one approach of many. By donating to our campaign you are investing in the future of agriculture and are personally contributing to developing the tools needed to educate and sustain the next generation of Black farmers and farmers of color. Growing beyond the Bronx to give back to the Bronx. We believe that when the most marginalized of us prosper, we all prosper.”DOWNLOAD RECORDINGsubscribe to the podcast here: http://feeds.feedburner.com/5432fun(intro by omar)Yawners “So Long” DizzyPotion 200 "Ask The Angels” Ask The Angels * Oblivion ParadeCNT EVN “Endless” DemoBlood Orphans “sun poisoning” you’re deadp r i m a v e r a “fea” primaveramilly “people are forever” an intro to:ISBN “Feel” Grimmed OutSOAR “Fatigue” dark / goldalimony “Without You” Without You b/w Bad HabitsThe Ire “Derelict” DemoManeater “Noise” ManeaterGem “New High” New HighMini Dresses “House All Lit Up” Mini DressesSecret Spot “to be the wind” simple goodbyeOtzi “Cruel Economy” GhostsKythira “Phone’s Dead” Soon, I PromiseTender Cruncher “Oblong” JuicyBeach Moon/Peach Moon “Philosophy at 23” WonderstandingTruth Club “Post-FOMO Life” Interest MeetingDifficult Objects “Too Tired To Be Punk” Posers EPguests “Halfmoon” Sunday PracticeMaggie Rosenberg “Angry 4evr” hoorayLAPeCHE “Stone” The Second Arrow

Bongiwe Lusizi has pioneered a new style of music known as Xhopera which synthesises African Indigenous bow music, classical opera and choral music. Her repertoire is mainly derived from Xhosa bow music and is firmly entrenched in African dance rhythms.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Wangũi wa Kamonji in her article, Women in Kenya rebuild resilience amidst an eco-cultural crisis, published in February of this year, a few weeks before the current global pandemic takes its cripplingly hold, writes that: “in the global North, it has become more common to declare that indigenous peoples hold the solutions to the climate crisis. Such rhetoric risks being only lip-service if solutions do not recognize and resource indigenous-led work to repair damage to indigenous cultures, commitment to an indigenous resurgence and the full integration of wisdom of these indigenous values in projects that seek solutions. After decades of shame, [violent] suppression and devaluation, much indigenous knowledge held by groups like the Tharaka [in Kenya] has been forgotten, hidden or impaired. Tharaka women [have] often commented that it seemed like “everything was going to disappear.” Facing this eco-cultural crisis, remembering, and restoring indigenous women's knowledge and practices, grounded in a paradigm of respect and collaboration with the Earth, emerges as the most salient pathway to recovery and restoration. Professor Gloria Emeagwali adds sharp clarity to this notion when she argues that, I must quote in its totality: “Throughout Africa, in spite of ongoing colonization and the continuing effects of globalization, there are people, particularly in rural communities, who still associate their existence to, and with, the land, and with their immediate socio-physical environments and surroundings. Land has been a source of Indigenous identity for Africans, in that through associations with the land, local cultures, spiritualities, politics, economics, and the relations of society to Nature are defined. There are knowledges associated with the land that continue to guide everyday existence. People continue to negotiate identities, cultures, and spiritualities with particular understandings of the place of the human in their environments. These phenomena constitute important dimensions of the knowledgebase, and such knowledge also informs everyday existence. African indigeneity must be read as both a process and a form of identity. It is an identity that defines who a people are at a particular point in time. But it is also a recognition that such identities are in a continual process of existence. The lesson here is that a peoples' indigeneity and indigenousness is not simply taken away from them simply because they encounter others on their homeland [or beyond]. The Eurocentric constructions of the Indigenous as primitive, culture-based, and static is a ploy to privilege European identity, and should be distinguished from what the people claim and assert of their own indigeneity and indigenousness. The latter is about the affirmation of self, community, history, culture, tradition, heritage, and ancestry. Eurocentric constructions are about establishing cultures of hierarchies as a way to accord privilege and power. This is how racism worked and continues to work. Today, AWNP's Tasneem Siddiqui [@DrT_Siddiqui] is in conversation with activist and thinker, Wangũi wa Kamonji [@_fromtheroots]. They explore the contours and practice of indigenous knowledge and ancient technologies as that inform a decolonization that is simultaneously in resistance & restoration. Through research, dance, storytelling and facilitating diverse public spaces for critical consciousness and transformation, Wangũi wa Kamonji is retrieving and restoring indigenous Afrikan lifeways and practices.

Nutshell: In Episode 2 of #SOTTPodcast I cover healing and transmuting wounds for my feminine ancestors through celebration and tending to my womb. I also cover the season of darkness and confusion I am in, and I cover mental illness and why it's important to tend to our minds, to practice mental health. I share some helpful tips for depression and anxiety, especially for #empaths . In the month of October energy aligned for me. I immediately began feeling the #phoenixenergy of #Scorpio; I began the journey of an inner death (which I am still trodding). I communed with my new Master Plant Teacher Santa Maria, as she called to me, and she aided me in moving through energy blocks and #ancestraltrauma, especially trauma my #Taino and #African #Indigenous ancestors endured. During October I also shared sacred space with other women through a virtual class on #wombcare and #wombwisdom, which was supportive and beneficial for what I was experiencing! My #mooncycle was during the Full Moon that month, which was perfect, so I created sacred space for my womb and my Ancestors to celebrate, mourn, and release. Towards the end of the month I received channeled #Venusian #LightLanguageCodes during the #OrionidMeteorShower. What followed jaded me out. After an intense month of moving through heaviness and connecting in sacred space with my womb, ancestors, and sistars, I sunk into a space of confusion, anxiety, and depression. A lot has come up for me to review during this dark season of #thecrone, such as reflection on my past friendships and the disappointment and sadness I experienced when many of them let me down in my times of vulnerability and need. I am re-evaluating beliefs, and feeling my way through a phase of “what the fuck am I doing right now, and in which way should I be going?” I talk about #mentalillness and how it’s important to talk about it, especially from a spiritual perspective because the New Age movement has tried to dismiss it or not talk about it at all. New Age information can be deceptive, misleading, and #mentalhealth should not be ignored. Just as physical and emotional health is important, so is the health of the mind. I share my thoughts on it, and how I have been picking up on pain and thoughts of others. I also share tips on how to calm anxiety and depression, so I hope you tune in! 

Don’t forget, at the end of each episode is a sound healing! Be blessed! And so happy to have you tune into She of the Throne! Please share! Sources Mentioned:
