Explore how Dutch and British colonization of South Africa led to Apartheid, the strict national policy of racial segregation.

--

For 46 years, South Africans lived under Apartheid, a strict policy of segregation that barred the country’s Black majority from skilled, high-paying jobs, quality education, voting, and much more. So, how did these laws come to be? And how did this era of institutionalized discrimination finally come to an end? Thula Simpson explores how colonization led to the national trauma of Apartheid.

Slavery has occurred in many forms throughout the world, but the Atlantic slave trade -- which forcibly brought more than 10 million Africans to the Americas -- stands out for both its global scale and its lasting legacy. Anthony Hazard discusses the historical, economic and personal impact of this massive historical injustice.

Can a state be a democracy if it excludes a large segment or even the majority of it's population from citizenship? From the right to vote?

In which John Green teaches you about Sub-Saharan Africa! So, what exactly was going on there? It turns out, it was a lot of trade, converting to Islam, visits from Ibn Battuta, trade, beautiful women, trade, some impressive architecture, and several empires. John not only covers the West African Malian Empire, which is the one Mansa Musa ruled, but he also discusses the Ghanian Empire and even gets over to East Africa as well to discuss the trade-based city-states of Mogadishu, Mombasa, and Zanzibar. In addition to all this, John considers emigrating to Canada.

Study Reveals Black Americans Aren’t Descendants of Black Slaves But Hidden Native Original People!

Who are the ancestors of African Americans? Well, most African Americans believe that the majority of their DNA has roots in Africa, while the remaining has roots in native American tribes and Europe. This is often backed by genetic studies that reveal that African Americans have 73.2 percent African DNA, 24 percent European DNA and 0.8 percent Native American DNA.
This makes everyone believe that they are majorly descendants of Black slaves. But what if we tell you that it’s wrong? You have been intentionally told so. In fact, studies reveal that about 98 percent of African Americans have native American roots. So, why were you lied to and what do they want to hide?
The fact suggesting that Black people in America are descendants of native Black Indian tribes who lived on the continent before Columbus challenges the widely accepted historical account that most Black Americans are primarily descendants of African slaves brought to America between the 16th and 19th centuries.
In mainstream historical understanding, the transatlantic slave trade brought millions of Africans to the Americas, including what is now the United States, as forced labourers. Evidence such as shipping records, historical documents, and genetic studies supports the narrative that over generations, these African ancestors formed a significant part of the Black population in America.
Proponents of the alternative theory argue that there were indigenous Black populations in America, the Black Indian tribes, long before Columbus's arrival in 1492. They point to various pieces of evidence, including ancient artifacts depicting figures with African-like features found across the Americas. Even genetic studies prove this argument.
Additionally, some Native American oral traditions include references to dark-skinned peoples living among them, which supporters of the theory interpret as evidence of a pre-Columbian Black presence.
Accounts from early European explorers, like Christopher Columbus, have been cited by proponents of the theory as describing encounters with dark-skinned people in the Americas. These accounts are suggested to indicate the presence of indigenous Black populations.
Genetic studies have played a crucial role in understanding human migration and ancestry, supporting the mainstream view that the majority of Black Americans have ancestry tracing back to West and Central Africa, consistent with the history of the transatlantic slave trade. Proponents of the indigenous Black Indian theory contend that genetic studies may overlook or misinterpret complexities of indigenous and African admixture, challenging these interpretations.
Critics of the native Black Indian theory highlight methodological concerns, pointing out that the evidence presented often lacks rigorous scientific validation. They stress the importance of corroborating evidence from multiple sources, including archaeological, genetic, and historical records.
It's essential for Black individuals to comprehend black history to truly understand their cultural heritage and identity. Watching documentaries about black culture offers deep insights into the challenges and successes of Black communities. Examining the history of slavery and its effects on Black lives is crucial for recognizing and addressing systemic injustices. Black literature offers a diverse range of stories that mirror the variety and strength of Black experiences. Embracing black identity involves appreciating the depth and diversity of Black culture. Learning about black history facts empowers Black individuals to take control of their narrative and advocate for social justice.

Ancient Africa history is much more than Egyptian pyramids and Nile civilization. Unknown to most people, hundreds of smaller kingdoms have popped up throughout Africa’s history, with some eventually growing into powerful empires. These vast nations united Africa, managed wealthy trade routes, and controlled a potluck of cultures.

Africa is often overlooked in many historical narratives, with the focus instead often placed on the histories of European, Asian, or Middle Eastern empires. However, the African continent boasts a rich and complex history, characterized by the rise of powerful empires that played important roles in shaping the continent's destiny and influencing the broader world.

The history of Africa is a tapestry of diverse cultures, civilizations, and empires that have risen and fallen over millennia. Some of these empires are well known today to African while others have fallen into oblivion.
In this comprehensive exploration, we will embark on a journey through time to uncover the stories of some of the great African empires, from their beginnings to their eventual decline.

In this episode Zeinab Badawi travels to the country of her birth and the very region of her forefathers and mothers: northern Sudan where she sheds light on this little-known aspect of ancient African history, the great Kingdom of Kush.

Its kings ruled for many hundreds of years and indeed in the eighth century BC they conquered and governed Egypt for the best part of 100 years. Furthermore, Kush was an African superpower. Its influence extended to the modern day Middle East.

Zeinab visits the best preserved of Sudan’s one thousand pyramids and shows how some of the ancient customs of Kush have endured to this day.

Zeinab Badawi’s quest to uncover the history of Africa takes her to Egypt where she explores the most famous civilisation on the continent that of the ancient Egyptians.

Zeinab takes you beyond the usual coverage of the pharaohs, mummies and pyramids and examines the controversial question of who the ancient Egyptians actually were.

What was their ethnicity? What made such a great civilisation possible and how did the ancient Egyptians order their society? And she is also allowed to capture on film the mummy and treasures of the famous boy king Tutankhamun.

Episode 1: Why Black Africans Were Historically Viewed As A Threat ?

The view that Black Africans were historically viewed as a threat is a complex issue with multiple factors. One significant factor is the history of colonialism and the European conquest of Africa. European powers colonised Africa for its natural resources, and the perception of Africans as "primitive" or "uncivilised" was used to justify the exploitation and subjugation of African peoples.

Another factor is the transatlantic slave trade, which saw millions of Africans forcibly taken from their homes and transported to the Americas as slaves. The dehumanization of Africans as property and the violent treatment they received from their slave owners further reinforced the perception of Africans as a threat.

Additionally, racism and prejudice against Black people have been pervasive throughout history and continue to be a problem today. This bias has often led to the assumption that Black people are inherently violent or dangerous, perpetuating the stereotype of the "angry Black man" or "aggressive Black woman."

In short, the perception of Black Africans as a threat has deep roots in history, including colonialism, slavery, and ongoing prejudice and discrimination. It is a complex issue that requires a nuanced understanding of history and culture to fully grasp.
============================
Let's come together in reasonable dialogue to honor our ancestors and reclaim the world through an African lens. Join me as we delve into African history, culture, and worldview to better understand their relevance to our lives today. By sharing our thoughts and knowledge, we can pave the way for a new culture of awareness and reclaim our story. As the African Diaspora saying goes, "I am because we are, and we are because I am."
