He is the author of Introduction to the Study of African Classical Civilizations] (1993) and the editor of Unchained African Voices, a collection of poetry and prose by Death Row inmates at California's San Quentin maximum-security prison. He was a member of the editorial board of Africology: The Journal of Pan African Studies (www.jpanafrican.org), and he held an honorary doctorate of divinity from Amen-Ra Theological Seminary (Los Angeles, California). He also supported the work of controversial scholars like the late Ivan Van Sertima.
    Rashidi was a writer and speaker who lectured on ancient Egypt, the African presence in prehistoric America, Africans in antiquity, and the African presence in Asia and other parts of the world.
    He is the author or editor of 18 books, including The African Presence in Early Asia (1985, 1988, 1995), with Ivan Van Sertima, Black Star: The African Presence in Early Europe (2012) and African Star over Asia: The Black Presence in the East (2013).[3]

    When black people say to other black people, “we don’t know who we are, they know who we are”. We need to take a long hard look at all of these ancient statues with our faces on them that have all of those broken noses 👃🏿 on them around the world.🌍 Those noses didn’t just break off, I hope this gets a pin 📌 at the top. People who were only slaves throughout history wouldn’t have any statues of themselves all around the world.

LoL!!!!!! And fails to mention to the observer how the enhancing of the lips, hips, etc, was simply the styling of the time, done by the hand of the Egyptian artists themselves, and the intention was not necessarily to portray or reflect the persons real image, no different then how Romans portrayed themselves as “chubby” in their art.

    Ancestor Rashidi asked why wasn't there more black people at his event. My guess is that it is because there was not enough publicity in advance. Hopefully, there will be a black promoter or promoters who read this. Black events tend NOT to promote enough. We need to preserve lots of the available money for publicity. A great part of the problem is that we are integrated into the white community. So we tend to be DISCONNECTED from the whole black community; we are unable to easily communicate the events and directions of our black community.
    SAVE MONEY FOR PUBLICITY.

    I'm thankful for Brother's and Sister's like yourselves, who resource , research and release this hidden knowledge to our youth.. This is definitely knowledge that you're never going to hear in a suburban school. (White Faculty).. I was fortunate when I was in school.. I had 4 years of school,5th through 8th grade.. In a all very small African American Catholic School back in the mid-70's.. With white Nun's as teachers and principal.. But they believed that as Black kids, we should know our real Historical Back ground. Math, English, Social studies , Science. Those we're the same ol same.. But 4 other classes were Black Culture based ... History was divided - American History, and African Culture/Black American History. Science was general science and Black Science and Black Inventions..We had a Q&A class , In that we talked about topics of the day concerning our people. And anything else that you wanted to ask about our people. The school also had 3 teacher's of color who ran those classes. All of which had Doctorate Degrees in a different category of subjects. And we went on Field trips once a week to different places in Indiana that had something to do with our History, Books , Art , Construction , Businesses.. And I'm proud to say that the school is still running strong , a lot bigger now, but with the same criteria and agendas.. I was blessed by going to that school.. Because the education and the quality of this education.. I would have never received at the other school.. Because the school system as a whole, doesn't want to teach African American history.. The important parts that is.. You know the one's I'm talking about.. The parts about how We're descendants of Kings and Queens. How are people have built empires in land before we were stolen from our Country and Home's. Or how many inventions and products that are still used to this day that were invented or produced by a black man or woman.. or the Achievements in Science and Medicine .. And that we built our own town's and city's.. With our Black owned and operated Banks, businesses, government. To only have them burned to the ground by hateful, jealous, racist White's.. While they raped our Mother's ,Wives and Daughters.. And shot Husband's, Father's and Son's in the streets like dogs.. No, they're not going to give our youth that knowledge... Because that's allowing the ( Truth ) to be told.. But yet , they'll tell you about slavery.. How they worked men , women and children to death.. After buying us like they would a cow or pig. Kidnapping you from a land that was your home.. The lynching and murders , before and after our so called freedom. Oh , and a little bit about Civil Rights and the murder of Dr King.. And Hip-hop.. That's the history of the Black Race you're going to receive.. That's really all they know, or they'll say , that's all they know.. I'm done.. I just had to let it out, it needed to be said.. Blessings to all , stay true to yourself, be respectful to one another. A New Messiah is Coming , A New Beginning Awaits.🙏

I had a Russian GF while living in Taiwan and SHE knew about Pushkin, she says Pushkin is considered Russia's greatest writer and that EVERY Russian felt that way, but she was an Asian. The other black Russian mentioned here was the Tzar's military fortifications engineer. St Georges was imprisoned during the French Rev, but let out. Fascinating history, Black Seminoles etc. Cheers

    This is wrong & is absolutely shameful!
    It had dawned on me of late, that many don't even know much, regarding the Malian Empire, yet, it was incredibly powerful & historically influential.

      @Matt Drake That may be true... BUT it is not a point under consideration with Chinese medicine. No one is waiting until you age to consider the size of your ears to make the determination.

      @@alexissmith6646 It's all about working with what you have. IF your ears are truly small, then you must modify your diet to eat natural foods most often fresh and organic. This will reduce toxic build up. You also must engage in movements that assists the flow of Chi throughout the body. That would be Qi Gong, Tai Chi, yoga, and even simple things like stretching, and walking. For sure you cannot spend much of your time sitting down. You have to move to live. For some of the movement practices, see if your state library system has videos in its free digital database. You will need to get plenty of sunshine and drink plenty of fresh water. You have to be vigilant, on the regular in regards how you are conducting your life. That means less stress and reason for toxic emotions. To know if your ears are truly small you should compare them to your face, head and other features like you mouth and nose. If you are a small person, yes your ears are most likely going to be small, but they may not be truly small ears if you look at them relative to your face and head. In any caes, redesigning your lifestyle and tweaking it will help improve the quality of your life. 👂
