Although I don't keep up with Afrikan news like I should, I believe it is important to know what is going on in our country,because we are not Amerikkkans,we are Afrikans living in Amerikkka.

BlackNificent proverb, bro. Tumi! It is also interesting that you use the symbol of sankofa : at the end of your words, which basically represents the same principles as expressed in the proverb. If you don't mind I must post this one in the Afrikan Proverb thread!

Your words are very powerful, and true. Forums that make it possible for our people to learn, grow, and connect with one another for the purpose of our own liberation is indeed a blessing and a strength!

Once again, your comments are much appreciated, warrior!

I try yet being here where the truth is hard to find when lie's are pushed over them to cover it up I try to focus on what I learn on my own about certain issues before I believe what those yt reporters say.

I try but there is a LOT to consider. I am trying to study the colonial era at this point because it helps with understanding a lot of the current political situations.
