Podcasts about they came before columbus

"They Came Before Columbus" is a  popular enough book that claims Africans came to the Americas and played a significant role in shaping Indigenous Histories. The book, and research, uses a bad process of sorting through history, misaligned times, leaps of faith, misquotes, and more than what I actually cover. For those of us who have lost a lot of our history, it can be easy to fall into more fantastical views of the past, oversized importance. But this is bad history, and it is also a duplication of a process that has erased the histories of people across the globe, especially in the Americas.

KYC's mission is to provide academic enrichment to an underserved population. KYC is a volunteer based non-profit that works with students in the local community ages 8-18. KYC supports students in writing fluency, reading comprehension, historical analysis, math application, and career readiness, with a focus on leadership and life skills. One of our students, for example, graduated from our program in 2018, with a modest high school GPA and below-average math and writing skills. We worked with him during the summer before he attended an HBCU - he recently was accepted to a program in bioethics at Yale University. Keep Your Change helps to mitigate the damage of the racist public education system on Long Island. A system that underserves our youth and fails to prepare them for life after school. KYC provides these students with what they need to thrive in high school and beyond. Naima has developed an extensive Black studies curriculum that she has been teaching at KYC for three years reaching over 100 local students. In her Black Studies class Students study history psychology, sociology, philosophy, and economics.

Thanksgiving is upon us, which means we are coming to the end of the year ....what better time to reflect and point out somethings that we are thankful for. We had a lot of ups and downs but through it all we still remain. There's a lot for us to be thankful for .... we should focus on what makes us happy and continue to build on the things that are adding positive vibes to our lives. We aren't where we used to be and it feels good. Thanksgiving was introduced to me as a celebration..an event where people shared a meal and good energy. But, after I grew up and learned that black people were already were already in America before Columbus supposedly discovered America. There are books that explain this truth. "The Primitive Black Nations Of America" and "They Came Before Columbus" are just two of the many that are available. We can just accept anything that is given to us and that includes information. Since we were kids, we were made to believe all black people are only here because they were brought on a slave ship....Its not true. There are black people in this country who's ancestors were never slaves. Watch the series Hidden Colors, it talks about all of this and more.

Our Scripture verse for today is Colossians 1:9 which reads: "For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding." Our History of Black Americans and the Black Church quote for today is from Lee June, a professor at Michigan State University and the author of the book, "Yet With A Steady Beat: The Black Church through a Psychological and Biblical Lens." He said, "Although what is called the ‘Black Church' is still the most powerful institution within the Black community, there is a need for some midcourse corrections. Though there are many encouraging signs, the dangers are there also. Our challenge in the years ahead is to continue to maximize the resources that will advance Christ's church as a whole." Our first topic for today is titled "The New World Experience" from the book, "From Slavery to Freedom" by John Hope Franklin. As Van Sertima has ably pointed out in his book, They Came Before Columbus, peoples of African descent arrived in the United States before Christopher Columbus allegedly discovered America. It should also be noted that there were Africans who were on the same ship with Columbus during his exploration. The fact remains, however, that most African Americans arrived in the United States as slaves, and a few arrived as indentured laborers. In the early 1400s, the Portuguese began to make their way along the west coast of Africa. It was Portugal that led Europe in its search for an all-water route to the East—India, China, and the East Indies. ... Our second topic for today is "The Institutional Church of the Free Negroes, Part 7" from The Negro Church in America by E. Franklin Frazier. He writes: The Free Negroes Establish Their Own Churches After Richard Allen and Absalom Jones organized the Free African Society, they differed as to whether Negroes should model their church organization after the Methodist or after the Protestant Episcopal Church. Allen was of the opinion that the Methodist form of worship was more suited to the religious needs and form of worship to which the Negroes had become accustomed. As a consequence of this difference between Jones and Allen, Jones organized the African Protestant Episcopal Church of St. Thomas but the majority of the Negroes who had seceded from the white church followed Allen. ... Our third and final topic for today is from "The Black Church in the U.S.: Its Origin, Growth, Contributions, and Outlook" by Dr. William A. Banks. Today we are continuing with part 4 of Chapter 3: "Reaction -- 1820 to 1865" NEW TESTAMENT SCRIPTURES AND SLAVERY Not only were scriptures cited in an attempt to support the belief that Negroes were cursed, but they were used to support the very institution of slavery itself. These passages include Ephesians 6:5-9, Colossians 3:22-25; 1 Timothy 6:1-2; Titus 2:9-10; 1 Peter 2:18-19; and Philemon. ...

For Cultural Exchange, actor and musician Clarke Peters selects an anthropological book: They Came Before Columbus, by Dr Ivan Van Sertima. Dr Van Sertima argued that the Indians whom Columbus encountered had already met Africans, long before Columbus had got there.

Ivan Gladstone Van Sertima (26 January 1935 - 25 May 2009) was a historian, linguist and anthropologist at Rutgers University in the United States.[1] He was noted for his controversial theory of pre-Columbian contact between Africa and the Americas, which he published in his book They Came Before Columbus (1976). While the book was a popular bestseller, it was "either completely ignored or generally dismissed by anthropologists, historians and other academic professionals."[2]
