Dude crashed out just at the thought that an African dared use twitter
These niggas would rather have no healthcare or go to the food banks just to get rid of immigrants.
Where is the logic in that? Sad
These are the field negroes in the fields standing next to us saying they better than us cause they were on the plantation longer or was born there.
"I don't care if massah hates me too as long as he ship y'all off our plantation life is good "
crazy shit bout this is trump in power doing all this racist fuckery is an opportunity for black folks to revive the blackstarliner vision as the world is getting smaller & insular , white Americans aint cutting off their European forebears or connections , these fba ados twats want to isolate BlackAmerica so BlackAmerica has nothing except what the white racist government provide thereby making blackamerica even more dependent and completely at the mercy of white america since they've cut themselves off from the wider diaspora of black ppl worldwide.. tell me how that isnt a white supremacist dream..

It means the Somalians got off the Trump train because Trump gave them his ass to kiss, but maybe they shouldn't be so quick to turn around and criticize Nigerians.
Somalians should politically regroup and decide a course of action now that Trump has them in his crosshairs.
FBA I know most of you are lost souls and it's sad, but you can be redeem if you start looking at things through the lens of an AFRICAN......Our culture is too rich to ignore......
You folks should enhance your minds and read this.....
The giants who wake us up by teaching historical truths, are like kryptonite to Superman.
Once we understand who we are, and the sacrifices our ancestors have made to ensure that this information was accessible to us, we are obligated to learn as much as we can and live our lives applying this knowledge. Such exposure leads to, what we refer to as a Kemetamorphosis: - a transformation of consciousness that comes from knowing who we were as African people, before our world was turned upside down.
Once we are grounded with a sense of historical and cultural continuity, it doesn’t matter what our oppressors think or say.
It is their responsibility to lie. That’s what they do best. They have an aversion to truth. They are destroyers. They have left an unenviable record of death and destruction that is unparalleled in the annals human history.
When you know that someone is a liar you should see them for who they are and disassociate yourself from them.
We must protect ourselves, our children, and those we love from liars so that we can benefit from a life filled with accurate historical and cultural knowledge.

The Truth About Ancient Egypt (Kemet)
Heavy is the Crown Vol.II
Anthony Browder
Dec 10, 2025
To understand why I’ve dedicated my life to reclaiming African history, you need to understand how an artist learns to see.
And once you see the truth about who built civilization, you can never unsee it
Seeing History Through the Eyes of an Artist
I was born and raised in Chicago and lived my early life drawing, developing my skills as a young artist. I even took classes at the Art Institute of Chicago.
I took two years of drafting and architectural classes in high school and had plans of becoming an architect. I enrolled in the School of Architecture my freshman year at the University of Illinois, Circle Campus, then decided that I wanted a change in my life. I left Chicago, transferred to Howard University, changed my major from architecture to design, and received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in graphic design and advertising in 1974.
I’ve spent my early years as an artist, and as an adult I learned to see the world through the eyes of an artist.
When I look at a building or an object and I see the symbolism embedded in it. Over the decades I’ve learned to interpret the symbolism in the objects that I study. This skill reveals levels of meaning, hidden in plain view, that others are oblivious to.
In 1975 I met Nana Kwabena Brown who introduced me to African Spirituality. He also lent me my first book on Egyptian architecture. It was Peter Thompkin’s classic, “Secrets of the Great Pyramid.”
I met Ivan Van Sertima in 1977 and he’s the person who got me interested in Nile Valley civilization. Van Sertima was the first person to tell me that the ancient Egyptian pyramid, temple and tomb builders were Black. He rocked my world and freed my mind.
I had already seen the King Tut exhibit earlier that year. But I had seen the exhibit through the eyes of an artist. I marvelled at the craftsmanship, the exquisite detail of the jewelry and sculpture.
But after meeting Van Sertima, I went to see that exhibit again. This time I saw it through the eyes of an African and I could see my image in the face of this boy king. I instantly understood what historians, teachers and films had hidden from me all of my life.
That was the beginning of my quest to find out who I was as a person of African ancestry.
All the work that I’ve done as a historian is built upon my talents as an artist. I interpret history through the eyes of an artist. And everything that we know about history, we only know because of artists and architects.
Our knowledge comes from artisans who had the capacity to convey information in the works that they produced. These works have the capacity to speak to our souls, and convey information to the living.
- They wrote and illustrated books.
- They created sculptures, paintings jewlery, clothing and furniture.
- They created buildings and environments that attract tourist from around the world.
Beyond the Story of Enslavement
As my daughter Atlantis says:
“If the book of African history was a book of a thousand pages, the story of our enslavement would begin on page 996 and would only be two pages long.”
My job as a father was to teach my daughter the first 995 pages of African history.
I took Atlantis to Egypt when she was seven years old. He has returned to Egypt 19 times and is prepared to take over my study tours in 2027.
And now as a grandfather, my daughter and I will teach her son, my grandson, what we know and he will take our knowledge and expand the Browder Brand among the next generation.
It’s important for us to know that our story does not begin in slavery. It’s important for us to know that the story of African people is the first story of human beings on the planet.
Geneticists have determined that the Africans in Europe mutated, lost their melanin, and became the people that we now classify today as Caucasians, between 8,000 to 12,000 years ago.
- We’ve been here at least 300,000 years.
- We were the first humans in Asia.
- We were the first humans in Europe.
- We were the first humans to populate the world.
Given that historical and scientific reality, I choose to study the history of people who have been on this planet for 300,000 years rather than to study the history, culture, religion, science and philosophy of people who’ve only been here 8,000 to 12,000 years. That’s a conscious choice that I have made and I want to raise the consciousness of as many of my brothers and sisters as possible so that they can choose to think like that as well.
My Initiation in Kemet
I made my first trip to Egypt with Dr. Yosef Ben Jochannan in 1980.
Those 13 days that I spent on the Nile transformed my life forever. I had the opportunity to see with my own eyes the historical foundation that I had been miseducated to attribute to others. Knowing the truth sparked something in me and I wanted to share as much of that information with as many people in my community as possible.
And as I reflect on the trip, I now realize that trip was an initiation.
I had some incredible experiences my first three days in Egypt. On my first night I visited the Great Pyramid with a group of friends. The second night I returned with two friends and we climbed the pyramids and watched the sun rise from the geographical center of the land mass of the earth.
Later that morning, we literally stood between the paws of Her-em-akhet (the Sphinx) and then walked around the entire statue.
On my third day in Egypt, I spent about 90 minutes in the Khufu’s Pyramid by myself.
When I approached the entrance to the pyramid, I was told that it was closed due to a power outage. I convinced the guard to let me in because I had been there the day before, I had a flashlight, and I knew my way around. The guard let me enter, and I wound up spending time in the pyramid, all by myself.
Since I was undisturbed in the pyramid, I decided to meditate in the Kings Chamber. While there, I was able to envision of the rest of my trip in Egypt, and then I saw myself back home in Washington, DC.
During that meditation I had visions that meant nothing to me at the time. Recently I have recognized something I saw in that meditation in December of 1980. I now realize that one of the images I saw was the colonnaded hall of Karahkamum’s tomb, which I helped restore in 2016.
I can look back on my experiences and connect the dots and realize that everything that I’ve done has been preparing me for the work I was to do, including the excavation and restoration of tombs on the West Bank of Luxor Egypt.
That vision in the King’s Chamber showed me my future, but I hadn’t fully understood the full scope of what I saw.
For the next 28 years, I focused my study on Kemet. But I was operating with incomplete knowledge until 2008, when I was introduced to an aspect of our history which contained the missing pieces that I had been looking for.
The 25th Dynasty: Africa’s Last Great Walk in the Sun
I am almost ashamed to say that when I first started going into Kemet, I knew nothing about Kush.
I had no real appreciation for that culture. It was only in 2008, when I became aware of the lost tombs of South Asasif that I began to understand and appreciate who these people were. And through my 15 years directing the Asa Restoration Project, I’ve come to understand that these Africans, from the south, initiated the first documented renaissance in recorded history.
They came into Kemet with the precise mission to restore the land of their ancestors.
They engaged in an activity that’s referred to as archaism, where they reached back 2,000 years, to the old kingdom, to restore the best of Nile Valley architecture, sculpture, writing, mythology, and spiritual traditions.
They codified and formulated much of that information, updated it, and left the world an incredible record, which contemporary Egyptologists want to attribute to the 26th dynasty, as opposed to the 25th dynasty.
Understanding the Full Story of the Nile Valley
I’m pleased to say that I had the opportunity to travel to Kush with ancestor Dr. Runoko Rashidi, in the summer of 2016.
I was able to travel to that space after having engaged in the excavations in South Asasif for 7 years. This allowed me to have a greater appreciation for the artifacts we saw and it also deepened my understanding of the knowledge Kushites possessed before they ruled Kemet.
I now have a greater understanding and appreciation of the entire Nile Valley–from the Mountains of the Moon to the Mediterranean.
I know that the Nile Valley culture and civilization began from its two sources:
I now know that the story of Asar Aset and Heru is an Ethiopia story that is at least 7,000 years older than when it was presented in Kemet.
- The White Nile in Uganda,
- The Blue Nile out of Ethiopia.
If we truly want to understand Kemet, we have to understand Kush, Ethiopia, Kenya, and Uganda.
We must go to the sources of the Nile because the Nile River was what John Henry Clarke called a ‘cultural highway’. People, goods, services, and knowledge migrated from the upper Nile to the lower Nile, and they transformed humanity, culture, and civilization everywhere the river flowed.
When I began my journey to enlightenment, I had some questions lingering in the back of my mind.
Why had no one taught me this?
Why did I have to travel to Africa as a grown man to learn that my ancestors built the world’s first high civilization?
Why was I taught to see ancient Egypt as separate from Africa?
I soon discovered that the erasure of our history was not an accident.
The Power of Historical Erasure
Racists have always done everything within their power to erase the contributions of African people from historical and cultural memory.
That’s the only way they can survive.
They know who our ancestors were, who we are, and what our children had the capacity to do.
The only way they can maintain their power is to disconnect us from our history and culture by teaching us to believe in the lies used to miseducate us. The lie that African people have made no significant contributions to culture and civilization and that we literally waited in darkness for the white man to arrive and to bring us civilization and religion.
This is why they resist scholars such as:
- Chancellor Williams
- Cheikh Anta Diop
- John Henrik Clarke
- John G. Jackson
- Dr. Ben
- Asa Hilliard
- Patricia Newton
- Francis Cress Welsing

We must protect ourselves, our children, and those we love from liars so that we can benefit from a life filled with accurate historical and cultural knowledge.
Allow me to share some of what has been hidden.
Dr. Asa Hilliard gave us a framework for understanding the scope of African achievement in Kemet.
He identified four distinct periods of African excellence:
The Four Golden Ages of Kemet
Dr. Asa Hilliard gave us some foundational knowledge about Kemet.
He divided Kemet into 4 Golden Ages of cultural advancements. The first Golden Age was during dynasties 3 and 4. That was the pyramid age when all the Mir (Pyramids) were constructed. The second Golden Age was dynasties 11 and 12, the Middle Kingdom, when many of the sacred texts were codified.
The third Golden Age was dynasties 18 and 19, when the great monuments, temples and tombs, that millions of tourists travel to Egypt to see every day, were built. It was a time when Egypt became an imperialist nation, because they had to confront continual foreign invasions.
The fourth and final Golden Age was the 25th dynasty. That is the period that Dr. Clarke refers to as Africa’s last great walk in the sun.
Another suppressed truth about Kemet is the story of the power African queens wielded.
The Power of African Women in Kemet
One of the most significant female personalities in human history is Queen Ahmose-Nefertari.
She was the wife of Ahmose, the king who defeated the Hyksos (the first major foreign invaders) and established the 18th dynasty—the most prosperous period of African leadership.
Ahmose-Nefertari was her husband’s co-regent and a respected leader in her own right.
Another important personality is Hatshepsut, who is unfairly labeled as a female leader who wanted to be a king. That is a misrepresentation of the historical record.
What we call Egyptian history is nothing more than the European interpretation of African history, culture, science and philosophy. Most European historians interpret African history through a European lens; they only scratch the surface and become experts of subjects they know very little about.
So, it’s critically important that what Cheikh Anta Diop meant when he said: The history of African people must be viewed and written by people of African ancestry.
We must reclaim the Nile Valley and see its relationship with the rest of Africa. Only then will we see the correlation between the Nile River Valley and the Niger River Valley.
When we do that, we understand that Africa is a matrilineal society and African women determine kinship patterns. Men may rule the nation, but the women were the power behind the throne.
One of the best examples can be found in the history and imagery of king Amenhotep III and his wife Queen Tiye.
Their statue in the Cairo Museum is the largest statue in the Cairo Museum. Amenhotep III and Tiye are of equal stature. He was co-regent and ruled Kemet after the death of her husband. She shared the throne with her young son, Amenhotep IV, until he reached adulthood and married Nefertiti.
Amenhotep IV ultimately separated himself from the traditions of his ancestors.
Instead of acknowledging Amen, the unseen aspect of the creation, he chose to honor the Aton, the visible aspect of creation and changed his name to Akhanaton. After he died, his teenaged son, Tutankhaten, returned to Waset (Luxor), changed his name to Tutankhamun, and restored the priesthood of Amun.
Akhenaten (Amenhotep IV) had a powerful wife in Queen Nefertiti, who is considered by many Egyptologists as the most beautiful woman in antiquity.
The reason they make that statement is because the Berlin bust of Nefertiti is considered by some forgery and was manipulated to look more European.
I was able to acquire a photograph of the original bust of Nefertiti (above left) and invite you to compare it to the forgery (above right). You will notice the skin of Nefertiti in the bust on the right is darker, and her nose is a bit rounder. The gash in her right eyebrow, and the hole in her right ear lobe have been filled in the copy. You can also see the crack that extends the entire length of the crown on the left has been repaired in the bust on the right.
I will explain this forgery in more detail in my forthcoming book, “Why Kemet Matters” and these examples will suffice for now. This is one of the many benefits of seeing history through the eyes of an artist.
Building Legacy: Our Responsibility
It is important for us to understand that we should establish legacies like those established in Kush and Kemet. We have a “blackprint” that can be easily replicated today.
It is our obligation to model for our children how real men and women can run their lives.
In addition to scholars in the classroom, and others who are writing books, there are also some phenomenal filmmakers who are showing our history one screens large and small. Amadeus Christ is one of the most talented young filmmakers plying he craft today. He has produced three films that my daughter and I were proud to appear in.
Including the soon to be released: Out of Darkness: Heavy is the Crown Vol.2 (You can see my contribution to the phenomenal documentary here.)
Finally, we must realize that the first classroom is in the home.
Every parent has an obligation to have more books in their home than computer games. Every parent has a responsibility to spend time with their children reading, and discussing books they have read. This is the best way to prepare children for the world.
That is how conscientious people bring their descendants out of darkness into the light.

I was confused becos their community is literally under attack & he's wasting time worried about 1 single dude online to cover & cope and somehow thats a "we" he's getting flamed on both posts
this , and that transforms u as a human, theres a peace that comes with that knowledge
Only white people use the word fuck face
its a question.. can u answer it ?
"How in the fuck did she start with black Americans fuckface?"
can u answer it ?
A singular raccoon that is repeatedly posted is not plural, much less the majority of 260K Somalis.
Sorry, I didn’t read the whole thing just kind of glossing over, fuck face just stood out cause I know it’s a white cracker term
I never said that, but when a person has a voice and is constantly in front of a camera, his words and actions should be addressed, nobody is untouchable here.
