In the late 15th century, Portuguese explorers noted the flourishing rice cultivation in West Africa, a skill deeply rooted in local communities. Tragically, the transatlantic slave trade brought these expert rice cultivators to the Americas, where their knowledge transformed agriculture. Their expertise cultivated what became known as Carolina Gold. By the 1700s, African skills were so valued that areas like Charleston saw a surge in Rice Coast Africans, reshaping the economy of the LowcountryJoin us as we explore how this world of Black Rice Audio Onemichistory.comFollow me on Instagram: @onemic_historyFollow me on Treadsr: https://www.threads.net/@onemic_historyFollow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OnemichistoryPlease support our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=25697914Buy me a Coffee https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Countryboi2mSources:Black Rice; The African Origins of Rice Cultivation in the Americas by Judith A.

In Episode 3 we discuss the origins of Christianity in the Spiritual teachings of Ancient Kemet (Egypt) which were first integrated into Judaism and then later into Chrisitianity. Christianity is revealed as a Greek interpretation of the Ancient Mystery Teachings on the Immaculate Conception, the journey of the Soul and the Resurrection that had been part of the Mystery Teachings of Ancient Kemet recorded in Ancient Texts like the Egyptian Book Of The Dead for at least 3000 years before the birth of Judaism or Christianity.

Black To The Future Podcast: 16 January 2021 Ep2: White Supremacy (Racism) & Genetic Survival According To The Cress Theory Of Colour Confrontation In Episode 2 we discuss Racism from the perspective of Pyschiatrist Dr Cress Welsing's Theory of Colour-Confrontation (Racism) in her seminal work The Isis Papers in which she claims that the origins of White Supremacy lie in the need for self-preservation by White Skinned People in order to prevent their Genetic annihilation as a population on Earth and also as a Collective Post-Traumatic response to their rejection by their Black Skinned Parents in Africa who cast them out of early African Settlements because they were born Albino. The Historical accuracy and implications of the Theory are discussed concluding with a brief discussion on the African Origins of Christianity.

We discuss the African Origins of world Civilization based on the knowledge of Ancient Ethiopia which later became Ancient Kemet in Egypt and how the knowledge from Ancient Kemet in Egypt inspired Western and Eastern Civilization. How and why the information discovered by Black Historians, Egyptologists and Scientsists like Dr Ben Jochannan and Cheikh Anta Diop on the African Origins of World Civilization is not taught widely. We also consider why Zechariah Sitchin's Ancient Astronaut Theory is widely distributed as a means of explaining the Ancient Advanced African Civilizations instead of acknowledging the African Origins Of World Civilization.

Dr Claudia Miranda ( Cardiologists) and a certified Kemetic Yoga teacher. Created a global online teaching (Soul Kura) in under two months. Claudia teaches Kemetic Yoga, which is from one of the oldest known civilisations ancient Egypt, properly called Kemet in Northeastern Africa. Kemetic Yoga was developed by studying, translating and interpreting the commonly called hieroglyphic texts of Kemet (ancient Egypt), and the images of Yoga postures that are clearly pictured on the walls of the Kemetic temples. Kemetic Yoga is both a philosophy and a practice based upon the Kemetic systems of self-development, that fueled the creation of the Kemetic civilization that spawned western science, philosophy and religion.

It was after I finished reading Reni Eddo-Lodge's book "Why I'm no longer talking to white people about race" did it dawn to me to ask the question what happens with an African person suffers depression or burnout as a result of experiencing racism, who do they go to for counseling...white therapist? Can the white therapist relate to how their patient is feeling? Can they understand how it feels like to be permanently exposed to racism without any chance of escape? I'm hoping to get your opinions because I think this is a very important gap that needs to be addressed especially here in Germany. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ubuntutime/message

Peace and greetings to the family. Tonight I would like to take us back to a classic lecture by Dr. Yosef Ben-Jochannan ‎ entitled Christianity's Afrikan Roots(1979). We always hearing the lectures from him talking about Kemet but what about this lecture with him talkin about Jesus and Christianity.

In Listening for Africa: Freedom, Modernity, and the Logic of Black Music’s African Origins (Duke University Press, 2017), David García reminds us that how culture is understood and interpreted not only reflects the political and social discourses of the day, but also shapes those discussions. Drawing on figures as diverse as academics like Melville Herskovitz, performers such as Duke Ellington, and those like dancer/anthropologist Katherine Dunham who filled multiple roles, García lays bare the ways that people in the Americas from the 1930s until the 1950s understood the African origins of black music and dance. He is particularly interested in how the discourse about African retentions in black diasporic culture intensified cultural, political, and social dichotomies: primal vs. civilized, science vs. magic, black vs. white, and most importantly, modernity vs. primitivity. García argues these concepts were defined in terms of each other through the discourse he analyzes, with the politically dominant groups reinforcing positive connotations with the ideas they identified with themselves. Proceeding in broadly chronological order, García begins with a critique of the intellectual foundations of the discipline that we now call ethnomusicology and explores how the approaches taken to African retentions in black music and dance by some of the field’s prominent figures were fundamentally influenced by scientific principles and Freudian psychology. Moving from academia to performance, García expands his argument by considering the rhetoric around black music and dance in the United States, the Caribbean, and Mexico as well as analyzing individual works and performances by Katherine Dunham, Asadata Dafora, Modupe Paris, Duke Ellington, and others. The book ends with a close reading of the cultural and political implications of the mambo, which was a transnational dance phenomenon in the early 1950s. Listening for Africa provides a dense, theoretically rigorous accounting of how the forces that shaped the production and analysis of black music and dance in the mid twentieth century also reinforced political and cultural oppression. David F. García is an Associate Professor in Ethnomusicology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. His research on black and Latin music in the United States has been published in MUSICultures, Journal of the Society for American Music and other journals. His first monograph, Arsenio Rodríguez and the Transnational Flows of Latin Popular Music received a Certificate of Merit from the Association for Recorded Sound Collections. He was awarded a National Endowment for the Humanities fellowship in 2014 and is also a Visiting Scholar at the Cristobal Díaz Ayala Collection of Cuban and Latin American Popular Music by the Cuban Research Institute at Florida International University. Kristen M. Turner, Ph.D. is a lecturer at North Carolina State University in the music department. Her work centers on American musical culture at the turn of the twentieth century and has been published in several journals and essay collections.   Learn more about your ad choices.

In Listening for Africa: Freedom, Modernity, and the Logic of Black Music’s African Origins (Duke University Press, 2017), David García reminds us that how culture is understood and interpreted not only reflects the political and social discourses of the day, but also shapes those discussions. Drawing on figures as diverse as academics like Melville Herskovitz, performers such as Duke Ellington, and those like dancer/anthropologist Katherine Dunham who filled multiple roles, García lays bare the ways that people in the Americas from the 1930s until the 1950s understood the African origins of black music and dance. He is particularly interested in how the discourse about African retentions in black diasporic culture intensified cultural, political, and social dichotomies: primal vs. civilized, science vs. magic, black vs. white, and most importantly, modernity vs. primitivity. García argues these concepts were defined in terms of each other through the discourse he analyzes, with the politically dominant groups reinforcing positive connotations with the ideas they identified with themselves. Proceeding in broadly chronological order, García begins with a critique of the intellectual foundations of the discipline that we now call ethnomusicology and explores how the approaches taken to African retentions in black music and dance by some of the field’s prominent figures were fundamentally influenced by scientific principles and Freudian psychology. Moving from academia to performance, García expands his argument by considering the rhetoric around black music and dance in the United States, the Caribbean, and Mexico as well as analyzing individual works and performances by Katherine Dunham, Asadata Dafora, Modupe Paris, Duke Ellington, and others. The book ends with a close reading of the cultural and political implications of the mambo, which was a transnational dance phenomenon in the early 1950s. Listening for Africa provides a dense, theoretically rigorous accounting of how the forces that shaped the production and analysis of black music and dance in the mid twentieth century also reinforced political and cultural oppression.

This is part 2 of Devin Walker's discussion on the African Origins of Christianity. In this episode, Devin discusses 1) the Egyptian origin of Hebrew names and words; 2) the three sons of Noah; 3) Koptic Church of Africa - the first Christians; 4) how African women were the first martyrs of Christianity; and much more. Devin originally conducted and published most of this information in 1991 (at the age of 24), while as an active member of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, through his research newsletter of that day entitled, "The Kemit Report!" It was a part of his appeal to the church to break its silence on the hidden history of Africa in religion and to speak out against racism, sexism and other forms of bigotry in society.

In this episode, author and organizer Devin Walker discusses his research that shows the African origin of 1) the Hebrew Israelites, 2) the first people to practice religion, 3) Christmas and Easter, 4) the word, "Amen," 5) the sources of the Bible, and 6) the idea of the word "Trinity!"

African Origins of the Major "Western Religions: first published in 1970, continues to be one of Dr. Ben's most thought-provoking works.
