Today's discussion is about a remarkable woman named, Abdaraya Toya, or Victoria Montou. She was an elite “Dahomey Amazon”, which inspired "Black Panther's" Dora Milaje, was sold into slavery and later helped lead the only successful save revolt in history! The Haitian revolution. Wow!

In This Episode: Since the release of Black Panther, there has been a massive increase in the love and appreciation of African Culture, African Fashion, African Music, and African Dance. As a matter of fact, more people have gotten their DNA tested to determine their Ancestry, and people now celebrate whatever percent of African they have in them! We are very happy to see all the love people have for Africa, but we can’t help but wonder when the AFRICAN PEOPLE would receive as much love and acceptance as AFRICA. Mentioned In This Episode: 1.
