African History
The African King Who Discovered America Before Christopher Columbus
Today we’re bringing you a captivating historical documentary that explores the intriguing possibility of pre-Columbian transatlantic contact by the Mali Empire. The film delves into the legend of Emperor Muhammed ibn Qu, also known as Mansa Abu Bakr II, who is said to have embarked on a monumental voyage across the Atlantic Ocean, predating Christopher Columbus.
The documentary begins with the story of Mansa Musa, who recounts the tale of his predecessor’s ambitious journey. It paints a vivid picture of Muhammed ibn Qu’s resolve, as he leads a massive fleet from the shores of West Africa into the unknown, driven by insatiable curiosity and a desire for discovery.
Through animated re-enactments, and a review of historical and archaeological evidence, we investigate the narrative of the Mali Empire’s exploration and the possibility of its interaction with the indigenous peoples of the Americas. It explores the testimonies of explorers like Christopher Columbus and Vasco Nunez de Balboa, who encountered evidence of African presence in the New World.
The film also delves into the work of modern researchers like Clyde Ahmad Winters and the Smithsonian Institution, who have uncovered artifacts and skeletal remains suggesting pre-Columbian African contact with the Americas. It presents a compelling case for a cultural exchange that might have occurred long before European exploration, reshaping our understanding of world history.
This is not just a journey into the past; it’s an exploration of the Mali Empire’s legacy and its potential impact on global history. This documentary invites viewers to ponder the vastness of human exploration and the interconnectedness of our world’s civilizations.

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 concept of angels remains a captivating mystery for the modern mind. Often depicted in religious and cultural contexts, angels are considered heavenly beings from an unseen, transcendent world.
We will embark on a captivating journey to explore how ancient African spirituality profoundly shaped one of the most ethereal and universally revered concepts: that of angels. This exploration is not merely about tracing the lineage of beliefs but unraveling how African civilizations, through their intricate understanding of the divine and its messengers, seeded ideas that blossomed into key spiritual figures in later cultures.

Hey I got one for ya. Recently I was watching an episode of an old western series called maverick from 1957. There was a guy who turned up in this town saying he became trapped in an old Indian burial ground and had great difficulty in getting because a huge storm hit and he had no idea how he managed to get out of this area. He told them the name of the place was wakonda. So I looked it up and guess what? It is actually spelled wakondah. The small hats always show you things , you just have to read between the lines

The white vikings from scandinavia settled in north america in the 8th and 9th century. But when they increased in numbers the native americans attacked and killed them. Before that the chinese landed on the west coast of the US, but they didnt consider it worthwhile to settle there.

This is a pure fabricated story created by muslims to give the impression that they discovered the Americas.
Red Indian legends say that as per their legend followers of the true, living God would come from the east across the oceans and once that happens the native Americans believed that they will have to surrender to the real living God and give up their pagan faiths. When the native Americans saw the spanish and portugese they considered it as a confirmation of their legend and they surrendered meekly without much fight. Even Christopher Columbus's name indicates that he was picked by providence to open up the new world. Christopher means BEARER OF CHRIST and Columbus means COLONISER. The names of Columbus ships also indicate Biblical connections. The lead ship was named SANTA MARIA after the Mother of Jesus Christ, the queen of heaven and the spiritual mother of all mankind.

I’ve actually looked into this topic quite a bit over the years and have come to my own conclusions as to what could’ve actually happened.
Although I do think it is possible that ibn qu and his crew could’ve reached the americas, I have reason to believe that they didn’t make it. If they did make it, it likely would’ve been a fraction of the original crew and would’ve been killed off by natives
The reason why I’ve reached this conclusion being that we have no archaeological or genetic evidence that hints at it happening. When it comes to Polynesians, we have genetic, linguistic and material evidence to prove that they did travel to the americas between roughly 1150-1400ad. but we do not have this same evidence between west Africa and the americas. Even in the scenario that they did travel across the Atlantic and reached the Americas but never sailed back to west Africa, there should’ve at least been genetic evidence showing their arrival to support this, but there is no verifiable evidence that shows the E-M2 (west african) haplogroup in the Americas prior to Columbus, which means that any Africans that did reach the Americas did not reproduce. Accounts recorded by Al-umari in Egypt of a conversation between him and mansa musa show that the voyage would have happened just before 1312, and that there were actually 2 voyages made across the Atlantic. The first voyage being 200 ships, where apparently only 1 ship ever came back claimed that a “river” with a powerful current appeared in the ocean, and the ships went down said river, but apparently this one returning ship did not enter and returned back to Mali. My interpretation of this is that the “river” was an ocean current, which can be described as “flowing like a river”. Assuming they survived the voyage along the current, they likely would’ve ended up around the lesser Antilles, but seeing as no ship ever returned afterward the voyage I am to assume that the worst took place but the lesser Antilles were also inhabited by the Caribs, who were known for being cannabalistic, so maybe that could have something to do with it…. In the second voyage around 2000 ships were said to be assembled with ibn qu taking part in the voyage, but this is said to be the last time anyone ever saw him. If a voyage of that size reached the Americas, there almost certainly would’ve been at least some genetic and material evidence left behind, the Polynesians traveled to the Americas in only a handful of ships and even they left genetic and linguistic evidence behind. If I had to make a guess, the fleet was probably hit by a tropical storm, but again that is only a guess as to what could’ve happened. There were later claims by John II of Portugal that ships from west Africa sailed west with merchandise, but this again seems unlikely, as this would’ve been over 100 years after ibn quo’s voyage, and there would have 100% been evidence of contact if trade did persist for that long between the Americas and west Africa.
