Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ANIDAHO - Awareness There is a great deal of misinformation being propagated in the Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African~Black) community regarding the etymological origins of the terms ‘nigger’, ‘nigga’, ‘naga’, ‘negus’ and ‘god’. There are individuals in the Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) community who propagate this information out of ignorance, attempting to conflate the derogatory term ‘nigger’ and its variation ‘nigga’ with ancient terms from Kamit (Egypt), Harrapa (Ancient Black India) and Ethiopia. In this work we give the proper etymologies of the terms 'nigger/negro' (nigga), Negus, Naga as well as the term 'God'. We demonstrate that the phonetic and conceptual roots of these terms are found in the language, culture and cosmology of ancient Kamit. This is the first publication elucidating these facts. We initially published the articles and the appendix in this publication separately. We have combined them here for ease of study and distribution. Anidaho is an Akan term meannig awareness. It literally means the eye (ani) lies upon (da) the self (ho). We must have awareness of who we are, who our enemies are and how they and their agents exploit our ignorance to keep us enslaved. Only then can we reorganize and move against them effectively.
Download or read book The God in Us written by Hlumelo Biko and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-07 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the unitary source of all of the world’s major religions. The book underscores the fact that there are many ways in which humanity has sought revelation of God, yet there is a common inspiration behind humanity’s God concept. The author’s analysis of world religions or faiths adopts a multi-interdisciplinary approach taking the reader through historical, anthropological, archaeological, and theological viewpoints to make juxtapositions. God in us is a rich resource that helps the readers understand the origins of human civilisation and how humans began to worship God, domesticate animals like sheep, invent astrology and create languages. Biko’s research also delves deeper into unveiling African indigenous knowledge systems and science that predate the arrival of the colonisers on the African soil.

Download or read book NYANKOPON and NYANKONTON RA and RAIT written by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan and published by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan. This book was released on with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NYANKOPON and NYANKONTON - RA and RAIT In this publication we correct the false notion that the Supreme Being and the Creator and Creatress are one and the same. Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans~Black People) have always understood that the Great Mother and Great Father function together as One Divine Unit – the Supreme Being. The most ancient name for the Great Mother and Great Father is Amenet and Amen as shown in ancient Khanit (Nubia) and Kamit (Egypt). Amenet and Amen are called Nyamewaa and Nyame in Akan culture. It is Amenet-Amen as the Great Being who direct Ra and Rait, the Creator and Creatress to create the Universe. This reality is one that Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) people can and have verified via our direct interaction with Amenet, Amen, Ra and Rait over tens of thousands of years. This reality is thus woven into the fabric of our cultural and religious expressions inclusive of the manner in which we articulate cosmology. This was true in ancient Khanit and Kamit and is true in Akan culture – in its authentic expression. Because of the corruptive influence of the pseudo-religions of the whites and their offspring, many Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) have attempted to force-fit our cosmology into the foolish and invalid notion of monotheism. The whites and their offspring manufactured the idea of monotheism for political purposes. They sought to lure Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) away from communicating with the actual Abosom (Deities) who are connected to us by blood, for they understood and understand that as long as we connect with the Abosom, we will be directed to overthrow the whites and their offspring and eradicate the perverse influence they have imprinted upon our culture worldwide. They therefore sought to erase the memory of the various Abosom and put forward the idea that there is only one, male ‘god’ who the whites are the representatives of. This would cause the brainwashed amongst us to believe that if we fought against the whites, we would be fighting against the ‘will of god’. This was the only means by which the whites and their offspring believed that they could control Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) after invading our countries and communities. It has taken them thousands of years to spread this false notion, gaining success only within the last 100+ years on a major scale. Akan nations who have fallen under the corrupt influence of the whites and their offspring have attempted to conflate the Creator with the Supreme Being, while eliminating the reality of the Great Mother and the Creatress altogether. Thus Nyankopon (Ra) is fused with and said to be a ‘title’ of Nyame (Amen) in Akan culture. Moreover, Nyankonton (Rait) and Nyamewaa (Amenet) are forgotten altogether. In this publication we restore the truth about Nyankopon and Nyankonton as Ra and Rait – the Creator and Creatress of the Universe and their relationship as Servants of Nyamewaa and Nyame (Amenet and Amen). We have also included an appendix which demonstrates that strands of the authentic cosmology still exist within the culture irrespective of the corrupt influence of the pseudo-religions of christianity, islam, judaism, etc. This is expressed through two Anansesem (Ananse stories) which feature Nsia – the Mother of Nyankopon.
Download or read book HOODOO PEOPLE Afurakanu Afuraitkaitnut Africans in North America Akan Custodians of Hoodoo from Ancient Hoodoo Udunu Land Khanit Nubia written by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan and published by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan. This book was released on with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HOODOO PEOPLE: Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) in North America - Akan Custodians of Hoodoo from Ancient Hoodoo/Udunu Land (Khanit/Nubia) Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans~Black People) in North america brought our Hoodoo religion and culture with us in our blood-circles from Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) during the Mmusuo Kese (Great Perversity/Enslavement Era). This is an unbroken tradition which is not only intergenerational, but transcarnational. This means that it was and is informed by the Abosom and our Nananom Nsamanfo, Akan terms for Deities/Divine Spirit-Forces that animate Creation and our Spiritually Cultivated Ancestresses and Ancestors. It is through the Abosom (Deities) that our Ancestral Religious traditions are established. This is true of all Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) wherever we are in the world. When the Abosom first possessed our Ancestresses and Ancestors via ritual and communicated the Divine Order of Creation directly to them, our religious practice was established. When those first Ancestresses and Ancestors preserved what they were taught by the Abosom and transferred that tradition via protocols to their posterity without profanation, our religious practice was/is perpetuated. Our knowledge of Nyamewaa-Nyame Nhyehyee, The Mother and Father Supreme Being’s Order (Divine Order), our role in the Divine Order and the means by which we can ritually incorporate Divine Law and ritually restore Divine Balance to our lives is replenished in every generation as the Abosom and Nananom Nsamanfo continue to communicate with us via spirit-possession and spirit-communication. Ancestral Spirit possession includes communication with our ancient Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestresses and Ancestors up to our recently transitioned Ancestresses and Ancestors of good character. Whenever we have children we have drawn one or more of our Nsamanfo, our Ancestresses and Ancestors, into the womb to return to Asaase Afua (Earth Mother) once again. The knowledge of the religion and culture is written into their Okra/Okraa, their Soul/Divine Consciousness by Nyamewaa-Nyame, the Supreme Being. As they grow and develop they access this Ancestral knowledge and incorporate it into every aspect of their lives when properly acculturated. Through this process they positively impact the lives of everyone in the community. This is transcarnational transmission of culture, the intergenerational spiri-genetic transmission of culture which was/is impervious to being broken through the horrors of the Mmusuo Kese (enslavement).

Download or read book Understanding and Teaching Religion in US History written by Karen J. Johnson and published by University of Wisconsin Pres. This book was released on 2024 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religion is deeply embedded in American history, and one cannot understand American history's broad dynamics without accounting for it. Without detailing the history of religions, teachers cannot properly explain key themes in US survey courses, such as politics, social dynamics, immigration and colonization, gender, race, or class. From early Native American beliefs and practices, to European explorations of the New World, to the most recent presidential elections, religion has been a significant feature of the American story. In Understanding and Teaching Religion in US History, a diverse group of eminent historians and history teachers provide a practical tool for teachers looking to improve history instruction at the upper-level secondary and undergraduate level. This book offers a breadth of voices and approaches to teaching this crucial part of US history. Religion can be a delicate topic, especially in public education, and many students and teachers bring strongly held views and identities to their understanding of the past. The editors and contributors aim to help the reader see religion in fresh ways, to present sources and perspectives that may be unfamiliar, and to suggest practical interventions in the classroom that teachers can use immediately.

The next several chapters discuss constitutional law principles, providing an overview of important issues and analyzing important illustrative cases. The next several chapters follow a similar approach to the main law subjects likely to be encountered in public administration.

Download or read book Understanding American COVID 19 Pandemic Beliefs Behaviors Politics and Society written by Herbert C. Covey and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2023-11-02 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Understanding American COVID-19 Pandemic Beliefs, Behaviors, Politics, and Society, Herbert C. Covey presents an overview of how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted American society. He proposes that the social and political contexts leading up to and during the pandemic fueled differing and sometimes opposing attitudes and behaviors. Some Americans saw COVID-19 as a dangerous threat while others dismissed it as overblown. Covey observes that these divergent views occurred in a vacuum but were influenced by various political, historical, cultural, psychological, and social factors. He argues that Americans’ social perceptions of the pandemic were affected by the unpredictability of the virus, erosion of trust in science and institutions, degradation of the news by biased news sources and social media, loss of critical thinking skills, denialism, truth decay, high emotions, racism, and unprecedented politicization of the pandemic. In addition, the susceptibility of some Americans to COVID-19 rumors, myths, misinformation, and conspiracies led them to make poor health decisions resulting in more severe cases of COVID-19 or, in some cases, death. The book includes data from numerous national surveys to document American beliefs and behaviors related to the pandemic. Finally, the author shows how these beliefs have led to protests, conspiracies, and social movements regarding pandemic responses.
