I worked in an all-white company where exclusion was subtle but felt. I was the only one not invited to a colleague’s wedding, I saw by the fancy haircuts at the Monday Team Meeting. Months later, two Black colleagues joined and we sat together in most team sessions. CEO: “Mhlaba, are you forming a black caucus there?” Me: “Black is needed in an all white assembly.” Stared at him with my resting face and he flushed pink 😅

Half black/half Japanese tennis player Naomi Osaka held a dinner party exclusively for black tennis players before the French Open She defended the party by claiming there have been segregated white-only parties (Without proof, of course) This woman is insufferable.

Today is Africa Day. And here is a fact most Africans have never been taught. Between 500 BCE and 700 CE, a civilization called the Garamantes built 750 kilometers of underground irrigation tunnels beneath the Sahara Desert in what is now Libya. They had no river. They built gravity-fed channels that pulled water from deep aquifers and turned desert into farmland that fed a population of 50,000. They grew grapes, figs, wheat, olives and dates in the middle of the Sahara. Modern engineers still study these tunnels today for sustainable irrigation solutions. But this is not taught in most African schools. Just like the building techniques, the craftsmanship, and the engineering knowledge before it, we are losing it without ever knowing we had it.

What historical fact sounds fake but is true?

Who started World War I? Not Muslims. Who started World War II? Not Muslims. Who killed about 20 million of Australia’s indigenous people? Not Muslims. Who dropped the nuclear bombs on Nagasaki and Hiroshima in Japan? Not Muslims. Who killed more than 100 million Native Americans in South America? Not Muslims. Who killed about 50 million Native Americans in North America? Not Muslims. Who kidnapped more than 180 million Africans as slaves from Africa, of whom about 88% died and were thrown into the oceans? Not Muslims. First, we must define terrorism or understand how terrorism is viewed by non-Muslims. If a non-Muslim commits a terrorist act, it is called a crime; but if a Muslim commits it, it is called terrorism. We must stop dealing with double standards.

Like I keep saying-- No matter what we do, no matter how we do it, MF just can't leave black folk alone!! Imagine MF being mad that black people do their own thing, but everyone seems to have a problem with it! While being shitted on by half the world for just being black!! Ya'll MF love to have it both ways! So, when you tell us to stay away from you and we do, it's a problem! But when we show up at your events, it's a problem!! When we show unity, it's a problem!! When we do it peacefully, it's a problem!! WTF can't MF just leave black folk alone? Without it having to be a problem, damn!!

The ritual was called "itọ́fo itiju" "burying the shame." Who knows about this? 🤯 Yoruba healers used it when someone carried shame that wouldn't release through talking. The person didn't work on self-compassion exercises. They externalized the shame completely. They'd place an object (cloth, stone, carved figure) on the ground to represent the shame. They spoke to it, told it everything it had cost them, then buried it while saying: "You are not me." Colonial missionaries called it "primitive exorcism" and banned it in the 1800s. But in 2022, Harvard researchers studying embodied cognition tested it with shame-based trauma survivors. They discovered that physically separating from an object representing shame changes proprioceptive self-boundaries. Results after 3 sessions: Shame intensity decreased 79% Self-criticism dropped 73% Body image improved significantly Participants described feeling "clean" for the first time in years 🙌

They call them "Martyrs," but in reality, the true martyrs were the natives who stood in defense of their community against these child raping anglo savages

The story of the Canadian Martyrs is one of the more tragic episodes in our history. These brave souls endured horrors beyond your comprehension, they did so in the service of God. May the 8 Canadian Martyrs pray for us

Some descendants of the Pyramid builders of Ancient Egypt are actually still in Egypt but you'll never see them on mainstream media. They call them "Nubians" now.

@NataniaMarshall If economy was a race, then the white would be the one who stole the best sneakers and uniform, killed some competitors, bribed the Referee, planted drugs on the fastest runner, gave everyone smallpox, and then ran the race on easy mode and wondered why it wasn’t easy for others
