Africa is the continent where the first humans were born. They explored the vast land and produced the first tools. And although we migrated from that continent, we never completely abandoned it. From the beginning of time, humans lived and worked in Africa, leaving evidence of their existence in the sands of the Sahara Desert and the valleys of the great rivers, such as the Nile and Niger. Some of the earliest great civilizations were born there, and they give us an insight into the smaller kingdoms of ancient Africa.

Interestingly, many Christians, particularly Black Christians, are often unaware of the true origins of the December global celebration. Previously, the celebration was variably scheduled in January, March, April, May, or September, reflecting uncertainty about the actual birthdate of Jesus.
The holidays we observe today have their roots in sacred days from ancient Kemetic or what is popularly known as Egyptian culture, where these occasions were timed with celestial events such as the alignment of stars, constellations, and the sun’s position relative to Earth.

The colonial education narrative has consistently taught, and still teaches, Africans that their ancestors relied solely on oral traditions to transmit knowledge and memory. Sadly, Africans in the so-called West, Central, East, and Southern African regions are unaware of writing systems in these parts of Africa.

You forgot many historical moments of kush, for instance Kandake Amanirenas, who fought the Romans and won or earlier King Pianki conquering egypt to revolutianize the egyptian religion and the establishment of meroe. When the arabian caliphates attacked makuria, makuria used one of the best archers of history to defeat them.

Did he say “controlled trade between Egypt and Africa”…that’s like saying “I’m gonna take a trip from Florida to America.” I wish people would stop constantly trying to remove Egypt from Africa. It was an African kingdom. I don’t understand why that is so painful for people to admit

While some things that you mentioned are correct not everything is accurate unfortunately, basically you stated that mansa musa’s slaves brought a gold bar each and that’s not correct each slave that was part of his crusade throughout Africa carried bags of gold not just one gold bar but bags of it.
the gold was so plentiful that he carried from his kingdom with him that it crippled the economy of each African nation he passed through as again he had so much gold that he would shower locals and royals with it as gifts so much that it became significantly devalued, I’m pretty sure you know how economics work so I don’t need to get it to the details as to why this happened.
Lastly you stated that mansa musa sold slaves from his parade in Egypt, again wrong that is not correct he had no need for extra gold as the man was drowning in it literally so he never sold anyone from his court to the Egyptians for “extra gold” as you claim.
He did however showered the Egyptians with gold as gifts and also slept with Egyptians nobles and maybe a few royals 😉 throughout his stay within Egypt.
So yeah had to point that out.
You do know that he still up to this day has the title of being the richest man in the history of this planet right, why do you think he still has this title gold dude, gold, lots of it that he had from his kingdom!

There is a place on the map where Africa and Europe are only 9 miles apart. That to me explains a lot why Americans considered a lot of Europeans as black or "swarty".

Its damn crazy how todays historical sources are hell bent on refraining from telling the truth about the African origins of ancient Egypt civilization. They hide the truth, but with such channels, dedicated to enlightening the people I hope the rest of the world will come to know that truth. Thanks for the great work.

It’s funny how people try to separate kemet (Egypt) from Africa. They are related what we now call Sudan, and people of east Africa. The culture of Egypt started from the east of Africa. My friend his father is Egyptian, they are black.
