  1. One thing that has stood out to me watching this series is that women played a significant role in African societies. Almost all societies had women leaders, but somehow we have been made to believe that feminism started in Europe lol.

  2. Beste Zeinab,
    aad iyo aad baan u jecelahay documenterigaagaan aad iyo aad baadanah u mahadsan tahay baayo Ani ahaan teynah waxaan jecelaah in aad Somaliya tagato hadu Ilahay kagadhigo amin

  3. These ancient rulers were so smart and advanced, in how they left their actual look as a statue in a remarkable work of art. So the coming generation can see how they look. @Taharqa family rulers.

  4. Researcher Kirsty Rowan suggests that Meroitic, like the Egyptian language, belongs to the Afro-Asiatic family. She bases this on its sound inventory and phonotactics, which, she proposes, are similar to those of the Afro-Asiatic languages and dissimilar from those of the Nilo-Saharan languages.[30][31] Claude Rilly, based on its syntax, morphology, and known vocabulary, proposes that Meroitic, like the Nobiin language, instead belongs to the Eastern Sudanic branch of the Nilo-Saharan family.

  5. Thank you so very much for this excellent video. Viewing it allowed me to come to the realization of the History that was never taught to me as an African American attending public school systems here in the USA.
    Again, thank you for giving us the opportunity to open our hearts and minds to " OUR HISTORY " !!! 😘😘😘

  6. The only reason they say the King is mentioned centuries LATER in the Bible is because they refuse to accept the truth of the Prophets. Isaiah was not centuries later!!!

  7. Kemet and Kush are in many ways 2 sides of the same coin. Their culture reverberate through out the continent and the further south you go the more accurate this becomes.

  8. Im a pan African but so sad that i didn't know about these pyramids in Sudan ,, I've always thought the Nubian history is made up ,,thanks for the education,more to learn about our history,,i will definitely visit Sudan , love from Ghana ❤

  9. She put herself,her mind,her soul and her pride to explain the history of motherland with dignity and with evidence.
    Thank you so much my dear.
    I'm from Haiti and I'm very happy the way she takes time to explain everything to us.

  10. It is not very much known. Yet it needs to be revealed, that the distruction of all the ancient architectures found in roubles and in a melted state, was done in the early to mid 1800th's where the French Henri Giffard build an dirigeable airship called the Giffard Dirigeable or Airship in 1852 andFerdenand Von Zeppelin a German build a rigid airship that looks like the Plimp called the Zeppelin. Which stayed in the air for 24 hours and flying at the minimum speed of 75 mils., per hour. Then in Germany more bigger and faster types were created. And they were all used in war throughout Africa, to destroy evidence of Civilizations and architectural prove. using Naphtha, Termal weapon that melted stones. And who melted buildingThat are seen throughout Africa, this Naphtha is an ancient war incendiary tool that destroyed everything, with its high intensity fire burning at high levels. Ingredients: Sulpher, minral pitch, crude oil, quicklime, resin, coal-tar and potassium nitrate. where no one lived to tell about it. For it was also used throughout the united state to destroy cities and there Aboriginal Natural Inhabitants.
    It cannot be put out by water. Infact it spreads the fire. To the point that it can melt steel. In Hawaii's
    La Haina fire is a good example and many other places throughout Central and South America borned to create tourist areas for the wealthy.

  11. It’s funny cause after the white colonizer gave the black man permission to be human again instead of abused cattle, he lost his purpose and remained entertaining those who watched. He didn’t gather his family and journey home or nothing 🤔 he continued accepting the money. Foolish one.

    They decided to play gangster sign language on the streets creating his own board game of killings. While rapping about it. 🤔

    Now he’s reminded he is a child of Africa and has assembled his straw thrown which he sits on waiting for reparations mostly in the payment of sex from women? 🤔 Seriously dude?

    And your women still believes she’s the most beautiful with straight hair. Or any related extension.

  12. Diaspora- A diaspora (/daɪˈæspərə/ dy-ASP-ər-ə) is a population that is scattered across regions which are separate from its geographic place of origin.[3][4] The word is used in reference to people who identify with a specific geographic location, but currently reside elsewhere.

  13. Just like the Asians, Indians from Middle East& Middle East Asia have accepted trust from the blue eyed whites and have evolved into white skin ( most of you). Yet, most of your citizens live in the dirt just like Africans. And the disrespect you bestow amongst the African country while camping out under their prymiads deems you with the laughing stock. Your immature behavior with military weapons has caused corruption for EVERYONE involved. Your women are in “hush mode” out of fear. Middle East and Middle East Asian Indian men know better than to bestow narcissistic treatment onto black women in America!

  14. Indians from India are deemed unworthy due to separation from African DNA with denial. You have falsely led your people into poverty while the Indian mother continues reproduction without the means to sustain. The Indian mother has been controlled by their men since the separation from Africa while the men use religion and military machinery recklessly. Indian men are extremely immature and ironically codependent with their women. The Indian man sits highly on a false straw throne while their women cater to this behavior. Without military weapons, the Indians in Middle East and Middle East Asia would have zero authority over their countries and Africa. Like the Europeans, Indians in Asia use the gun to manipulate their way into false authoritarian performance.
