How Africa Shaped Our Christmas Celebrations: Discover the Hidden History
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.

African Written Scripts Unearthed: Beyond Egypt's Hieroglyphs
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.

It seems that this Dr goes to American museums sifts through probably hundreds of pictures of books about say Greece, finds one which he likes and then talks about "the African presence" in Greece. Which means nothing. The Greeks weren't "black". Neither were the Phoenicians and Carthaginians. There are a few statues in Carthage still (*the city was destroyed by the Romans) and there are statues of Phoenicians in various cities in the Mediterranean. They are not "Black" . Only some American coloured or whatever they call themselves now think they have anything to do with him or with the descendants of the American slaves bought from West African chiefs

I knew the knight was African descent when I was reading Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. There was an African aroma about that knight when he rolled up.
