I’m soo happy Obenfo Obadele spoke on this issue about replacing a German deity “god” for the name of African Deities and African Supreme Being.
This! 💯
I've start using the term Oluwa in place of the term God.
Did he say United Snakes?
Yeah.
United snakes of America 😂😂
You not heard of that before? The same snakes that met in Berlin conference to share Africa amongst themselves like cake. The French had their share, the British, the Belgians, the Germans, the Portuguese etc
@@baerkaabnaab2388how come i don't hear the rage over what leopold did in the congo. Ppl rage over the 6 million Jew's an they get compensation, where is the Congos compensation for the cruelty an horror that came with king leopold?
This stands not only for "black" people, but also for every indigenous people on the planet
white people are more indigenous they have neanderthal dna they have a direct lineage to earths creatures. black people dont have any. dogon said themselves they come from siriub star system. and the ancient tablets says homo sapien was artifically created as a slave race. makes you wonder
Every indigenous people are carbon (melanin) people.
Isn't every person on earth indigenous?
I LOVE this discussion as someone with degrees in Linguistics and Religious Studies. 🤩
I been following this guy for years. Then he came off CZcams and created his own server called Abibitumi. Amazing human being from the content I have seen.
Yow, the brethren fluent in his explanation.🇯🇲🇯🇲
As an Africana Studies major ...20+ years ago...some blk folks used to think i was crazy. English language is based off a tricking tongue. Everything he's saying is spot on. Beware of false prophets, but first ...Know Thyself. Easier said than done these days. ✊🏾
The way you talk does direct how you think. The logic of how language is structured does affect how you structure your thought. For example you want to hit somebody in the head so you pick up the stick and hit them in the head versus pick up the stick then decide where to hit the person.
Thissssss 💯 if you know you know‼️ Language =Spells! Be careful what you speak‼️ the rabbit hole isn’t just deep it is infinite ♾️ and it’s dark- you have to provide your own light there…great vid keep up the great work‼️all is being RA/REvealed…☀️🌄🌅
👁️👁️👁️⚫️⚫️⚫️Amenet Nyamen 🙏🏾🫶🏾🙌🏾
Did you just write what he said was the side effect? Seeing dark as bad and white as good👁️🤔🧿
@@benreiltd.2528 dark=not seen, unseen the triple blackness of space and the womb
light being inner light aka the light of something being illuminated or revealed. Where was dark used in a negative connotation and when was white used at all?
This is next level Teaching...
Thankfully, we are comimg put from under that spell and returning to our true spirituality. Thanks to those like you who instruct us.
Greatly said. They cause you to replace the active mode with the passive mode or vice versa. So, at all times they keep interfering with your perception of the event or presence and changing your idea of where you stand in the matter.
This does affect cognitive abilities in terms of how you relate, interpret and find solutions in the world around you.
1:26 this is true in Mandinka as well. We’ll say ”tiredness has taken hold of me” in literally translation, rather than ”I am tired”
Most African languages are like that. It's more like an operating system for the mind.
Right we are speaking it onto ourselves in English vs it's just a temporary feeling. We are claiming it instead 😬.
I absolutely love his perspective. In my mother tongue, we speak in the way he described too, it is not structured according to the English language and i have often wondered why. It's crazy how we assume that our native tongues that are much OLDER than the English language should be spoken the same way. We really have to get away from these ideologies. Thank you so much! I have also stopped using the word God to refer to my creator, in my language we say Nhialic.
Obenfo Obadele a great spirit amongst us. Giving thanks.. a powerful explaining for us. Medasse. Medasse paa
Keeping it coming good Brother💪🏾. Peace & Black Love🌞
There is a huge difference between the creator of the universe and man made religious gods of Christianity or Islam.,
I am sooo glad )benfo is show up again in the media. It’s always a pleasure to listen to teaching ❤ Than you!
EXCELLENT MY BROTHER. I CAN FOLLOW EVERYTHING BEING SAID. KEEP ON KEEPING ON. WO KASA NOKWARE
I like Dr. Kambon and I admire him for being willing to give up his life in the US and repatriate to Ghana.
This is real Abibi Excellence
Many of y'all need to replay n listen to this a few times....
It's interesting how he says that we here in The Americas are taught that Black is bad and White is good because they do want us to see ourselves as just bad/evil and them as good/holy! I know that is a falsehood!!! Also, interesting enough when I was at the flea market in Baltimore Maryland I went to the Chinese herbologist there and I was there to purchase goji berry juice. I then went on to ask him what's the best food to eat with goji berry, and he then went on to respond chicken or poultry but black chicken is the best!!! He said everything black is good!!!! I was astonished!!!! We have to reverse the brainwashing!!!! Time to wake up to our way of thinking again!!!
He only said chicken cause you're black. It's a stereotype. You didn't even know that you were insulted. Goji berries are beneficial by themselves. Stop allowing people to advise you about yourself. You know best.
The English “Black” does not have a meaning that serves melanin-Rich people. You can say DUDU which means Black in Yoruba, but cross put English Black
@@joyhappy3461 English itself doesn't "serve" Afrakans. It isn't our "original tongue".
Yes. If your only language is English then you are a prisoner by default. Even Spanish has the masculine and feminine aspects, for example amiga vs amigo to describe the same thing.
The English language makes one defy common sense and discourages critical thought which is why English speakers will try to debate that Eve came from Adam which is absolutely ludicrous. First of all Adam and Eve are symbolic not literal people plus furthermore, when have you ever seen a man create a woman. Isn’t every man borne of from a woman? That’s basic common knowledge so why does the discussion of ‘who came from who’ have to continue any further.

This is powerful. I’m Muslim and this exists even in Islam or at least how all Qurans are translated. Every time I hear “He” in reference to a Creator that is supposed to have no gender, my heart cringes. It’s NEVER felt right. Neither has use of the word, “God.” Even using the name “Jesus” in their translations while calling him “Issa” also raises questions for me. Powerful dialogue. I’ve learned something new. Thank you.
God or source is a multi dimensional continuum. Everything, everywhere all at once. This being is the nucleus of this entire existence and is the totality of all there is, good, evil, you and me. This being doesn't give a rats ass about any nomenclature for it is beyond verbal and written language The journey to becoming truly "Christ-like" or awakening into the buddha is being blocked. Not because people don't go to church, stopped reading the bible or say a name made up by man on your bed each night. The reason why is because man kind worldwide has assimilated himself into a very insidious false sense of identity. Ask me anything
Why wouldn't the Creator have a gender?
@@KtotheG because the Creator transcends human made concepts. We exist and other sentient beings exist as genders through the Creator. But the nucleus of this existence transcends all concepts including words, numbers, and language. Many animals can change their gender too, I don't see why an all powerful Creator couldn't or wouldn't. Sounds like an insult if anyone says otherwise
@@KtotheG That’s a question I’ve never considered and need to reflect on to be honest. Like I said, I’m Muslim. In Islam we’re programmed with Allah has no gender, while referring to “it” as He/Him. I’m reprogramming though so thanks for the thought provoking. What’s your answer to your question?
@@AllisOneOneisAll So you don't believe that we are made in his image and likeness? The argument that the man in the video made about a man coming out of the forest with a baby doesn't make any sense, because he is assuming that life first begins in the womb and not with the initial spark that comes from the man. The womb is the soil. The "fluid" contains the seed. The seed contains the spark, not the soil. I don't think the first creator had a womb. The womb was created to promulgate life, not invent it.
Thank you teacher son of the soil
Too bad it was so short brother because you were sure enlightening us...
Bibi Obenfo
Very enlightening
Powerful… wow
The great Dr. Franz Fanon also talked about this. I know of even white linguist that talk about language and how we think based upon the language that we speak. He is on point and probably would be an advanced class even in college.
What does a white linguist have to do with Kambon? Would Kambon's words have less value if white didn't say the same thing?
Thank you for this message. I have been thinking this lately how there are words to describe feelings that aren't in the English language and that gets in the way of how we communicate and understand one another here. Causing the division between us here. So this is needed. I have been wanting to learn other languages just so I can learn how to fully express 💜🦋.
The English language needs to be flooded out
I’ve been watching his interview
Yes. This is true for other cultures too. Look at Asians from Asia vs Asians in america. Even first gen is different than 2nd generation.
I get soo mad when I hear so-called conscious elders use the word “god” to describe African Deities and African Supreme Being
I’m like, why are you using a Germanic deity, “god” to describe a Black African Deity.
Deity is still French
Actually, ‘deity’ is Middle English, modern French ‘dieu’, Spanish ‘dios’ from Old Latin ‘deus’.
From 3:33 Obenfo Kambon tells us how our ancestors conceived of creation.
Well, how do you say two in the French and Spanish languages?
Due to its wide appeal to the masses to gain one accord of understanding....be well
This is the limitation of speaking only English
African true freedom is been shackled to your identity
EXACTLY!!!!!
This deep n the best explanations I’ve ever heard about creation and god .. always wonder why the took the demand out the equation n created a so called devil concept

There are 169 spoken native languages in the US. Many different world views and perspective. I speak two of them. These are important conversations to have.

Wonderful talk.
When you master the language of your adopted country you will be respected,no doubt.
Wow

I wish I could learn an African language. I grew up living a few minutes from the US Mexico border, surrounded by Spanish-speaking people, studied Spanish in high school, and now I’m married to a man from Panama who is fluent in Spanish and I have still yet to learn Spanish. I also tried to learn American Sign Language, but I only know a handful of words. And the alphabet and both languages. 🤷🏾♀️
Why wish? Do it.
Learn Yoruba language on CZcams .
Stop wishing do it ...use your genetics Start learning frases and basic things in spanish everyday, watch shows in spanish watch to learn , stop waisting Time on english speaking things ..
I want to know HOW they did it as well as reshaped the world to their benefit from the last reset.

Diasporic Afrikans in the west who choose to return to the continent must learn the native language of that country,no excuse.

As you go back in time..retracing..time itself is constantly moving in the opposite direction.
Opposite to what?
Please can we do a deep dive into this "character " we refer to as God.
Old English ‘god’, derives from Proto-Germanic ‘ǥuđán’, generally agreed to derive from a Proto-Indo-European ‘*ǵʰu-tó-m’ itself was possibly ambiguous, and thought to derive from a root ‘*ǵʰeu̯-‘ "to pour, libate" (the idea survives in the Dutch word, 'Giet', meaning, to pour) 💦

Did he say unites snakes? 😂😂😂😂
I always say this we the only race without our own language I believe we use to communicate with clicking sounds like how babies do
Yes scientific archaeology research has confirmed that the oldest language known to man are the clicking sounds in Southern Africa among the Khoisan people.
What do you mean without our own language? We have many. Kiswahili is the most widely spoken one.
@@cultureducation you know African American we have to communicate using English all the time
@@juicejuice5013 oh ok. Ebonics/AAVE at least retains some African cultural traits, so it can serve as a bridge to learning continental African languages. The brotha being interviewed did it.
@@cultureducation I know about Ebonics and I get what you saying but you know like when in jail they were using a Aztec language to communicate we need something like that how you going to win if the oppressor know what you saying
Did he say united snakes?!
United snakes of a murderer

The womb is ☝️….moist high
I dont see nothing black as bad ,, one thing they were able to do was to get us to focus too much on them and not on our own economic power ... Yes the knowledge is good but we need to put into practice global economics ...
The Gothic origin of God was originated from Gad which is African from the Twa peopl who existed millions of years before Germany existed. Everything else he spoke on was educational.
That’s interesting, you have any further information on that connection?

English was created in America not in Europe/Africa
Break that down please, when did American language start?
How can English have been created in America when it came from England????

All ancient cultures had a male that was their supreme god. Females were always lesser gods than the male supreme god. This is even true of Ifa that is practiced by the Yoruba. A man representing the supreme god is not an introduction brought in by Europeans.
You're making his point.
He never said having a supreme male god was an issue.
He said a creator and creation story that is bereft of a feminine counterpart is the issue.
As you said, other cultures had a feminine aspect, whether it was secondary or not.
No. African spirituality is matriarchal, with the belief of woman as creator. This you’ll see in African chevron design symbolising the woman organ. Allow yourself some research
Ancient Africans did not have the male god supreme over the female god they knew well enough that the universe is 9-ether energy wich is feminine ( fimi-nine ) not masculine ( masu-line ) and the woman manifested first wich makes her god on earth and through mitochondrial dna she holds the key to the African race existence and heritage ( her-it-age )
I see why our ancestors became slaves. It seems like in non Christian and Muslim lead african cultures, the males stay in his boy energy. So when his manhood is challenged, he won't rise. He's waiting on his mother to give command.
@@leonfrancis3418 The Earth is viewed as feminine because the earth brings for fruit after its given seed to nourish. It is not to be worshipped because the Earth did not create itself.
I know for a certainty the Scriptures (the bible ) is true. It may have been tampered with but I know for sure it's the true way to eternal life and God. How do I know? Because through studying it, I've found wisdom and the 100% proof of God's existence, the "exercising of the senses," to hear and see what the natural ears and eyes don't naturally hear and see.
Isa 42:19-20
Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the LORD'S servant? Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears, but he heareth not.
Isa 43:8
Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.
And last but not least.
Heb 5:9-14
And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec. Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing YE ARE DULL OF HEARING. For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their SENSES EXERCISED to discern both good AND EVIL.
I know, see, and hear the proof that God exist and that the Scriptures are true, though tampered with!
Also there are other predating religious vehicles that also state the same things. The reason why everyone knows the Bible is because it was used as a pacifying instrument for the Roman's to all those they conquered. Same for British empire. Be Christian and this set way or you and your family will perish. Let's not forget the Inquisition and the burning and excommunicated of some their greatest theologians
Brainwashed!

lol . Language has no bearing on spirits . The English language in itself is a bastardized version of language called Enochian lol .
Afrocentric scholars are guilty of the same thing as the Eurocentric scholars are. They see the world through a racialized lens instead of taking data as it is and making their conclusions based on the facts and evidence. They start off with their conclusions and then, try to make the data conform to their preconceived notions.
Kemet most likely means “black land” not “land of the Blacks.” Ancient people didn’t have the same concept of race that we do in the modern world. If they had a racialized concept of Black and White, they would have certainly been more ethnocentric, xenophobic, and jingoistic than they were. They certainly wouldn’t have let all these foreigners roam freely in their country and they definitely wouldn’t have shared the Egyptian Mystery System and the Medu Neter with the likes of Socrates and other Greek philosophers. Those should have been state secrets.
They should have been on a steady war footing after the invasions by the Hyksos, Nubians, Libyans, and the Habarew (Hebrew) people. They should have adopted iron weapons and tools a lot sooner, too. They’re military would’ve been a lot more lethal if they had. Lastly, they should’ve been less religious and more rational. If they had been they would’ve never been conquered by Persia because they would have been willing to engage in combat with the Persian forces despite their throwing cats, which the Egyptians worshipped, at them. Religion has been the bane of African existence.
What are you talking about? All people from various ethnicities see and view the world from their own cultural framework.
@@TheAtomC What happens when the facts don’t align with your cultural framework?
@@TheAtomC , but the point is that race is itself a falsehood, so to apply it, especially retroactively, robs us of the truth.
What does “Africans in the west” mean? Is he asking about black Americans? Because that’s like saying “caucasians in the west” it seems redundant. No matter our skin color none of us are from America/wherever lol but we were born where we were so we are just Americans/South Americans/etc
You are not according to the white man who knows where they took you from ok
Huh!
What the hell are you trying to say? You may not be from the US, but descendants of US slavery are. So speak for yourself, as you can't say that none of us are from the US. Stay in your lane luv. You don't speak for black people, especially black Americans.
