AFRICANS VISITED AMERICA 2000 YEARS BEFORE COLUMBUS , 11 UNDENIABLE PROOFS ; Black History.
11 Reasons Tp Prove That Africans Were in America 2000 years Before Colombus.
Let me take you on a journey through some of these fascinating pieces of evidence of African presence in America 2000 years before Columbus. Take them with a grain of salt if you have to, but I think they are worth some consideration.
1. Olmec Heads: The colossal stone heads created by the Olmec civilization in present-day Mexico, which date back to 1500 BCE to 400 BCE, feature distinctly African facial features. These heads feature facial features such as broad noses, full lips, and round faces that clearly resemble those of Africans more than the indigenous populations of the Americas. Tell me this is not a black man right there. The detailed and realistic nature of the Olmec heads suggests they were based on real individuals. It is no wonder not surprising that some researchers contend that these features indicate an African presence in pre-Columbian America.
2. African Artifacts in the Americas: Artifacts such as cotton from Africa and tobacco pipes found in pre-Columbian sites in South America have led some to speculate about transatlantic contact. In addition, metal artefacts with similar metallurgical techniques to those used in West Africa have been found in pre-Columbian American sites.

Before the next point kindly give us a like. I know to you it’s a simple click, but to us it means a lot.
3. Botanical Evidence: Certain plants like the bottle gourd and the sweet potato are thought to have originated in Africa and Asia but were present in pre-Columbian America, suggesting possible ancient transoceanic contact.
4. Linguistic Evidence: Some linguists claim to have found similarities between certain Native American languages and African languages. Some proponents argue that there are similarities between ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and symbols found in Mesoamerican writing systems, such as those of the Maya. The Mandinka word “makala,” meaning “rice,” is compared to the similar-sounding words in some Native American languages.
Dr. Clyde Winters points to shared vocabulary and phonetic similarities, such as the word “yu” in Mandinka meaning “to give” and a similar-sounding word in the Olmec language with the same meaning.
Leo Wiener, in his early 20th-century work “Africa and the Discovery of America,” cited examples such as the Wolof word “tem” (to cut) and its similarity to the Algonquian word “temagun” (an axe).
5. THOR HEYERDAHL’S RAFT EXPERIMENTS: The Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl demonstrated with his expeditions (Kon-Tiki and Ra) that it was possible to travel across the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans using ancient boat-building techniques, suggesting that such voyages could have occurred in ancient times.
6. Ancient Maps: Some historical maps, such as the Piri Reis map, allegedly show parts of the American continent with a level of detail suggesting pre-Columbian exploration, potentially by African or other non-European civilizations.
7. Skull Analysis: Studies of certain skeletal remains, such as the Luzia Woman found in Brazil, have shown features that some anthropologists argue resemble those of African or Australoid populations rather than Native American populations.
8. Accounts from Early European Explorers: Some early European explorers, such as Vasco Núñez de Balboa, reported encountering dark-skinned peoples in the Americas upon their arrival.
9. Cultural Similarities: Some researchers point to cultural parallels between African and American civilizations, such as pyramid building, similar religious practices, and iconography, as potential evidence of contact.
10. Presence of Black peoples in Asia, Australia and the Pacific. If Black people can be found in as far as the Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Malaysia many Islands in the Pacific, why can’t they be found in the Americas? I mean it makes no sense for the Americas to be the exception right?
11. Genetic Studies: While controversial and not universally accepted, some genetic studies have indicated the presence of haplogroups in Native American populations that are also found in African populations, suggesting ancient intermingling.

Why am just hearing about him? Our parents and K-12 failed us! This story put a tear in my eye. I usually hate when people say it needs to be a movie because we need to read and do research but “it needs to be a movie”!!!

Sunn's really reframed lots of these slave emancipation stories for me. While I was understanding that black people fought for their freedom, for some reason that last part of the equation (abolishment of slavery) remained 'a gift' from the colonial govts of the day. While there were allies, we didn't 'gift' black people freedom. They fought for it with blood, sweat and tears. We wouldn't celebrate the French revolution as the monarchs 'giving' peasants freedoms, we celebrate peasants earning it.

Now THAT is badass! You better be careful whom you oppress because the oppressed are ever studying on not being oppressed, even if it costs a life.

Thank you for educating me that well ❤❤
In my eyes Black History is world history and everybody can profit from knowing more about it. Almost all western countries were involved in Black History and the consequences for the harassed and oppressed humans go on until today as the profits for the oppressors. And no, I am not black. Am just not blind.
I am happily here to get educated and humbled and so so greatful for the content.

❤ this series & all your work. Black folks already lived in Montreal when Minkins, et al. arrived. We arrived in Canada from the late 1500/ early 1600s. The 1st recorded African in Canada, Mathieu DaCosta was an Afro-french interpreter between Indigenous folks and white thieves aka explorers like Samuel de Champlain. This means DaCosta would have had prior contact to know the language. Champlain “founded” Quebec in 1608.

This story brings to mind the “Jerry Rescue Monument” in Clinton Square in downtown Syracuse,NY. In 1851 William Henry aka Jerry had escaped from Kentucky( if I remember correctly) , made it to Syracuse and was apprehended by federal agents and local police . While being held in the stockade , abolitionists broke him out and successfully facilitated his passage to Kingston,Ontario. Not far away in Auburn, NY ,the compound of Harriet Tubman which included an infermary, school, her residence and several other buildings. Many people in the town are her descendants. Thank you so much for your many jewels of our indomitable legacy! Ase’ 💫🙏🏽👑✊🏾

This is what gets me about the current narrative in regards to the illegal occupation of Palestine by isnotreal. Any acts of resistance is labeled as the villain towards the oppressor; the victim.
I can quite easily see this story of this amazing hero and his fellow free people, as being depicted as the villains in the story. My brain could so easily see how the narrative would be rewritten to demonize Minkins and his fellow abolitionists.
