blessings, bredderin
InI too busy these few days but am reasoning my innerstanding and compiling some thoughts for when there's enough time to respond fully.
InI been reading some Dr. John Henrik Clark and wanted to share a quote (or 3) here, til later.
Love and the fullness of His Majesties blessings to the Idren!
"Africa and its people are the most written about and the least understood of all of the world's people. This condition started in the 15th and the 16th centuries with the beginning of the slave trade system. The Europeans not only colonialized most of the world, they began to colonialize information about the world and its people."
John Henrik Clarke
"Africans in the United States must remember that the slave ships brought no West Indians, no Caribbeans, no Jamaicans or Trinidadians or Barbadians to this hemisphere. The slave ships brought only African people and most of us took the semblance of nationality from the places where slave ships dropped us off."
John Henrik Clarke
“Racists will always call you a racist when you identify their racism. To love yourself now - is a form of racism. We are the only people who are criticized for loving ourselves. and white people think when you love yourself you hate them. No, when I love myself they become irrelevant to me.”
―; John Henrik Clarke
