  1. Pyramids as devices for predicting the annual floods? That seems extremely unlikely. The pyramids are far larger and more expensive to create than necessary for that purpose. Also, a 'giant sundial' is a completely different device to one used for tracking days through the year.

  2. We should be concerned with African American culture prior to colonization because it gives us insight into real raw history, not the type of history we learn in school today through a western European lens. it is important to know our roots and our history so that we can be a proud people and realize that we are not inferior although we came about and live differently than our counterparts. It is important for non African Americans to also know this history so they understand we are not inferior. Understanding why people act, grow, eat, pray, believe the way they do allows for dialogue and empathy to be passed between cultures more fluidly because there is a foundation of understanding. I really enjoyed this video! I look forward to watching the rest of them and participating in similar discussions. Thank you, be well.

  3. I certainly wish we had more educators like you in our institutions of higher learning. I lived in West Africa for almost 2 years and learned some of what you teach is this video. Please keep up the good work! So many of our people sorely need you!!
