In this episode, Asar Imhotep of the Amen Ra Squad discusses the linguistic and cultural links that we still share with Africans in the rest of the Diaspora, but might not be conscious of, the biggest problem in the Black community, and the inspiration behind his books and academic works.
You might not agree with everything here but remember: we dont have to be uniformed in our opinion to be unified in our intention!
“The white man arrogated to himself the right to rule and to be obeyed by the non-white; his mission, he claimed, was to “civilize” Africa. Under this cloak, the Europeans robbed the continent of vast riches and inflicted unimaginable suffering on the African people. It is clear that we must find an African solution to our problems, and that this can only be found in African unity.” – Show Quote
