Lyrics:
Lift your voice and say I’m proud
Proud of my history
Lift your voice and say I’m proud
Proud of my history

Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history

Looking back at history
See the many contributions from the Black community
Like discovering new medicine
Dr. Percy Julian
A great scientist, you could be one too
Take a look up high in the sky,
Bessie Coleman learned to fly.
There’s no limit to the things we can do.
Peace, love and equality is what we all sing
And it started with a dream from Dr. Martin Luther King

Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history

Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history

Many dreams that we can chase
Like Katherine Johnson used her math
To help reach outer space.
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
You can be a great champion
Muhammed Ali.

Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history
Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history
To learn about the past
Will teach you more about you.
Become a literary genius,
James Baldwin, Maya Angelou
Just like George Carver used his wits to invent
Lead like Barack Obama
The first Black president.

Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history

Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history
Remember this and so much more,
Just read a book and you will see
There’s plenty to explore.
So stand up tall, with head held high
Let me hear you say it loud
Not just in February, all year I am proud.
Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history
Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history

How Africa Shaped Our Christmas Celebrations: Discover the Hidden History

Published

on



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.
