“It is chiefly the illiterates, the under-educated, and, and racially biased who refute the fact that the earliest and first human (Homo sapiens) was discovered in the area of what is known today as Africa.

The Truth Will Set You Free...

Know the truth and the truth will make you free.** Then take your place in the ranks of men, black, brown, red, yellow and white. This is man's God given right, nothing more, nothing less. A people without knowledge of its history is like a tree without roots. It is the inspiring influence of the knowledge which makes men want to go forward: to advance forward then, you must press backwards. Know your history well and no one will be able to deceive or make you afraid. - Author Unknown.

Imagine that you’ve been seeking knowledge about your culture’s identity in antiquity prior to any human record of Western cultural existence — its politics, religion, philosophy, research and world points-of-view, etc. — and, surprisingly, you have, over time, verified that what you’ve been taught, both historically and scripturally, in every aspect our of lives, were simply not true — but lies:

Western history’s representation that the world, and indeed, its “humanities” found its classical origins in Greece; and that their translation of events and occurrences in prehistorical and ancient times are factual…

However, nothing could be further from the truth.

The consensus today of the voluminous and incontrovertible evidence is that the world’s humanities — all of its religions, philosophies, politics, sciences, mathematics, medicines, astronomy, navigation, et al — originated in Africa and spread throughout the rest of the world approximately 7,100 years prior to Greece realizing that others lived in the world besides themselves.

So, now, armed with factual new found information you therefore arrive at the understanding that the West has categorically lied about prehistoric and ancient world history prior to their — the West’s — entrance in the known world.

And, learning this, at this stage of your evolution and development as a black person or person of color, not to mention the evolution and development of all humans on this planet…

What would you do? Tell the truth!

ALKEBU-LAN (AFRICA) — From The Beginning…

All nations by virtue of their triumphs and conquests (wars) have created their own deities/gods / goddesses, fashioned in their own likeness and image, depending upon their “appetites” at the time

The original sin of mankind (Prov. 16:2): Every way of a man (was) right in his own eyes…

“It is chiefly the illiterates, the under-educated, and, and racially biased who refute the fact that the earliest and first human (Homo sapiens) was discovered in the area of what is known today as Africa. And that the place at that time was called Eden. From this point humankind migrated throughout the world. Facts have been gathered from the land of Kenya, East Africa, in the place of Lake Rudolph, where Richard Leakey, the son of the late archaeologist Louis B. Leakey, was co-leader of the expedition that found the bones of the earliest man.”

Any history book of academic repute sanctions the African connection to ancient secular and religious civilization. Because of abundant facts and scientific findings, it is clear that most of the Old Testament (originated) developed from African/Edenic roots.

We must first consider the maps of ancient biblical lands...

In the Bible there is not one single mentioning of either England or Germany; by contrast, however, countries in Africa are mentioned again and again. The Old Testament alone cites Ethiopia over 40 times and Egypt over 100 times. Many biblical and extra-biblical ancient sources mention Egypt and Ethiopia together, almost interchangeably.

The opening scenario of the Holy Scriptures talks of Egypt and Ethiopia. At one time Egypt and Ethiopia were considered one and the same — by early civilizations — and very often in the Bible they are synonymous. The term Egypt was once used to mean all of Africa, which was called the Land of Ham (Psalm 105).”

“Unlike the ancient biblical world, our Western world is bedeviled by color prejudice, discrimination, and outright racial oppression. In this age of multiculturalism, there may technically be plenty of good room on seminary and university campuses for Native Americans, Latinos, Hispanics, Asians, Whites, Jews, and Blacks — but Eurocentrism still vigorously guides the curricula, both sacred and secular.” — Cain Hope Felder, B.A., M.Div., M.Phil., Ph.D., General Editor, “The Original African Heritage Study Bible, Recovering Multiculturalism in Scripture — The Ancient Edenic Background of the New Testament.” King James Version.

In the life of any individual, family, community or society, memory is of fundamental importance. It is the fabric of identity. — Nelson Mandela.

African Negro culture is imbued with an openness to the direct absorption of Spiritual Truth purposely hidden from the Hebrew African throughout the diaspora... — Reverend Dr. Cain Hope Felder.

"Three simple facts must be placed at the forefront of (any) discussion about Africa."...

1) Students of history today must understand, that in biblical times, Africa included much of what Europeans' maps have come to call the Middle East. (2) We must remember that the name Africa is actually of Latin origin and was imposed on the great Continent by European explorers. (3) Upon discovery of the African Continent, the European basically stole everything he laid his eyes on. - Dr. John Henrik Clarke, Ph.D.

IDENTITY THEFT…

History is rarely truthful about what really happened to black folks, especially black civilizations of antiquity. On the contrary… history is typically "a story of what happened," from the conqueror's point of view.

In retelling history, there will always be "different versions, different stories, about the same events. One version might revolve mainly around a specific set of facts while another version might minimize them or not include them at all." E.g... The downfall of Egypt - Kemet - as a dynasty "was not an overnight event but was a process of destruction resulting from European and Arab - [known as Aryan in antiquity] - onslaught lasting more than three thousand (3,000 years) - from 1,500 BCE [Before Common Era] till 1,500 AD." However, we now know that these invaders [Europeans and Arabs] of Kemet [Egypt] have claimed "to have created the very civilization they have," today - "identity theft of epic proportions against absurd claims that Kemet civilization was of Aryan (European, Arab [Semitic]) origins." Further study has proffered, that, "African civilizations ranging from Kemet / Egypt in North Africa to Chou Civilization in Southern Asia (the area now called China) were invaded by Aryan predators (now called Europeans, Arabs, and Asians) beginning approximately 1,500 BCE (Before Common Era). With each civilization / society that was conquered the invaders used the spoils to fabricate societies of their own; the invaders of China created Jainism and Confucims; those in India created Brahmanism; those in Asia Minor created Zoroastrianism, and Judaism; and those invading Kemet created 'Greek Philosophy', Christianity and Islam."

"This, then, is the nub of it"...

Who really were the first peoples to discover America?

They came before Columbus...

"As time allows us to drift further and further away from the “European age of exploration” and we move beyond an age of racial intellectual prejudice, historians are beginning to recognize that Africans were skilled navigators long before Europeans, contrary to popular belief."

As time allows us to drift further and further away from the “European age of exploration” and we move beyond an age of racial intellectual prejudice, historians are beginning to recognize that Africans were skilled navigators long before Europeans, contrary to popular belief."

"Africans had been navigating and traveling to the "new world" --  the Americas -- long before Christopher Columbus ever thought about commissioning a ship from the king and queen of Spain -- Ferdinand and Isabella -- to make what he believed, at that time, would be a first in the discovery of a new world.” "It was on his second voyage, however, that Columbus encountered the inhabitants of the new world, that he was quickly informed that the often and previous visitors to their lands were black men who traded with them and whose spears were tipped with gold." - Dr. Ivan Van Sertima, Ph.D.

About Ivan Van Sertima, Ph.D: A professor at Rutgers University, in New Brunswick, New Jersey, the Guyanese-born historian gained global renown with his scholarship showing African presence in the Americas long before the assertion that Christopher Columbus discovered them. Van Sertima's most famous work was "They Came Before Columbus," -- Random House, 1976 -- which showed African influences in Central and South America before the arrival of Europeans. On many occasions thereafter, Dr. Sertima engaged in battle with conservative scholars who rejected his teachings about Africa contribution to world civilization.

Columbus didn’t disc over America: Aboriginal Americans (Natives) and Africans (Olmecs) were traveling back and forth, from Africa to America, and back, some 3000+ years before Columbus.
