Dr. Oba T'shaka…. Book Return to the African Mother Principle of Male and Female Equality.
Thank you for this presentation… Quick note on Pronouncing of the Shona CHIMURENGA (Chi-Moo-Reng-ga) (translates to Liberation)
And once again great sightful… And accurate.
Thank you for saying the Continent of Africa.

She began to live a very wretched life and almost committed suicide after losing her first baby to malnutrition: the irony 🤦🏾♀️
NeHanda…you didn’t pronounce anything about her as it should be in Shona. But yes, she was a female who fought colonialism in Rhodesia which became, Zimbabwe.
LOVE THIS! WHEN TALKING ABOUT OURSELVES AND OUR HISTORY IT IS SUPER IMPORTANT THAT WE DATE TO THE PRECOLONIAL ERA!
Gender equality was never African, its western culture.
So eloquent and captivating. Great insight about our precolonial times. Thank you.
I mean…for who you were speaking with?

Is this why Africa is so far behind the whole world?
Spot on!
OMG FINALLY SOMEONE SAID THIS. I SAY IT AND PEOPLE DON'T BELIEVE IT. Our traditional cultures were much more balanced than what those Western nations brought us during colonialism. EMBRACE YOUR ROOTS. YOUR ROOTS IS WHERE YOU WILL FIND TRUE SOLACE.
