Sometimes in 1995, as a young man of 27 years old, I was working in the hospitality industry and a young Briton came to Nigeria for the first time and lodged at the hotel I used to work. One of the things he loved to do was stroll around and take in the evening setting sun. One day, as we were walking together, he saw a Hausa-Fulani man, selling some beautiful artifacts and souvenirs and he was bargaining in English, to which the Hausa-Fulani man had little or almost no command of. Then the man started speaking Hausa dialect and Jason, turned to me and asked, "what's he saying?" And I responded that I didn't know. He was shocked and I asked him if he speaks French or Italian, to which he said No...then I told him that he cant expect me, a Yoruba man to necessarily understand what a northerner is saying, same as I wouldn't expect him to speak or understand French, Spanish or Italian languages. He understood but was still confused...because, to him, all black people should speak and understand each others dialects. They think we are linguistically homogeneous 😏😏😁😁

@Justin Credible well, I guess I can pardon your misconception about me and how and from whom I seek validation from. *Be that as it may, I'm from planet Nigeria and from where I come from, we dont kiss white asses or seek their validation, reasons why they are not here in their large numbers, as you see in several other African countries.* And as far as African Unity goes, I bet you are not an African, living in Africa. Don't be deceived by KZbin and social media rhetorics, we are far from united. Check out how France has been able to derail the unified ECO currency for west Africa, using their coins in the Francophone African states, a concept we have been working on for decades. A unified Africa, wouldn't have allowed such rubbish to happen. Look at how South Africa has been treating Zimbabwean, Nigerian and other african migrants in their country, using xenophobia as a tool of oppressing them. Ethiopia is in crisis with Egypt and so on. Yes, we will eventually get there, but not yet. Cheers.

For obvious reasons. But they're not interested in teaching Black kids about their heritage, the last thing they want is for them to have pride in themselves. That is why if you can it's best to homeschool your kids or send them to an Afrocentric school that is willing to teach them about their culture and heritage and teach it in the way that they will be proud.

As a double foreigner to this issue (not African or Westerner) I feel like the big reason why you don't learn much about many of these African facts is because they're more of local history. Similarly to like you're not very likely to hear about Scythians who were big right here, but at best you'd know that one time father of Alexander the Great tried to counquer them. These countries and events, while important to local history, did not have a lasting impact on global history of the world. You can draw a direct line from Roman Empire to the Medieval Europe, to the ruling powers of the collonial age, to the global powers of today. But the queen who got away with a raid on Roman Egypt? At some point her legacy fizzled out. And since her location did not later become a center of global power, local history was not exported globally.

The reason US history is so Eurocentric is very understandable though, as European culture explains the foundations of the nation and past and current political, social and legal systems. The US is based on historically European Enlightenment principles, which sprouted from the Renaissance, themselves inspired by Greco-Roman antiquity. Sub-Saharan African history had little to no contribution to American nationhood, culturally, beyond the transatlantic slave trade and demographic issues of having large black populations. Most nations' history classes focus on trying to explain how the country got to what it is today, and for the US it's through European ideals. African, and Asian history, for example, are naturally very interesting, but haven't contributed significantly to US history beyond demographics. Regardless, it is surely quite beneficial for students to be aware and taught about world history in general, of other civilizations, if not just to let them realize that other civilizations have also achieved great things.

Most students in the U.S. are required to take classes in world history as well as U.S. history. The history of Africa is part of world history and should be included in world history curricula. In your description of the development of the west, you neglect the west's Judeo-Christian heritage, the proper study of which requires some understanding of the ancient near east and the earliest Christian communities, many of which were in north Africa.

growing up reading chinua achebe and wole soyinka and other african writers, i was intrigued by Africa. i am british asian but later in life, i had the good fortune of living and working in various parts of africa - kenya, morocco, zanzibar, nigeria, tanzania, etc it is a hugely diverse continent. even within a country like nigeria there are hundreds of tribes each with their own language, dialect, cuisine, hat, costume, etc. it is very cute and endearing and fascinating. i found east africans like kenyans and west africans like ghanians and nigerians to be extremely polite and well mannered. i fell in love with the fusion of arab and african culture in zanzibar and built a house on the beach there. i went to the serengetti and lived for a couple of weeks with the massai mara. it reminded me what it means for a man to be a master of his environment. so fearless and so dignified. morocco is one of the most beautiful and richest cultures i have ever seen. the berbers are a fascinating people and their alphabet one of the most beautiful i have ever seen.

That's the effect that ATLA had on me as a kid and now I'm taking tons of college courses on Asian film and history. I want to learn more about Africa so badly because it seems so rich and cool. A TV show might be a good place for future generations to start.

Africa is a continent nearly the size of US + CHINA + BRAZIL + INDIA. It is extremely diverse. Scientists say that Black Africans are genetically the most diverse race in the world. Africa has 54 countries with 1000 tribes speaking over 3000 languages & dialects. Each tribe or nation has its own history, culture & social organisation. This means there is no one African narrative. But 100s of AFRICAN HISTORIES. This Channel is a like a 5 pages introduction to a series made up of 30 volumes of at least 500 pages each. It means well but only touches the surface.

In #4, the lack of maritime conquest, trade and colonization I think is perhaps the biggest reason that ancient African nations, could not seemingly compete with contemporary North African and European civilizations. I'm not sure what the reason for this was since Kingdoms like Malawai would have most certainly understood the need for such trade and militarization. Even in the east, Aksum may have expanded across the Red Sea and Gulf on Aden to the Arabian Peninsula, but they weren't exactly culturally dominant, that is, leaving there cultural identity in foreign lands in the way that North Africa and Europe eventually did. It might not be one particular reason but a centuries long series of unfortunate events. What you think what this world might be like if any of these African nations established itself and the manner of Rome would be staggering. Think of the kingdoms of Molly and Aksum as an equivalent to Rome and Byzantium, one dominating the west across the Atlantic and the other dominating to the east across the Indian ocean. It would be interesting reimagining the world with that alternate history.

I'm tired of us *only feeling like victims* and the "victim" side of the black experience being pushed to the forefront. As a pro-black conservative, the logical conclusion is that we should ditch the "Critical Race Theory" BS (which was invented by white leftists, anyway) and instead teach the glorious history of the Black Nation in our public schools, with the focus on how our knowledge, culture, and philosophy has always been an essential part of America and is one of the main reasons why this is the greatest country in history.

As a teacher I find great interest in the value and substance of your work. Much of what you've espoused in your videos I can GUARANTEE YOU are no longer taught in schools, today. Why did I say, "no longer" above. Interestingly enough I was blessed to have had, 3 centenarians in my family. I knew every last one of them!! There were 2 on my mother's mother-side of the family and the other one was my mother's paternal grandfather. If any among your viewers could shed light on why the shift in U.S. curriculum I would love to hear it. So, please do enlighten. When I was a young child in elementary school they would periodically ask me, "What did you learn in school"? or (sometimes they would ask) "What did you learn in HISTORY today? Sometimes one if them would even ask to see (aka: inspect my textbooks for "accuracy" :D ). Interestingly enough, 2 of them said to me (in separate convo's, decades apart) "How come you aren't being taught about things like the "Hittites", "Sudan", "Southern Africa", "Architecture", "Meroe" or even the great King, "Shaka Zulu"? Never having an answer. Just a puzzled look. I think the only answers I could come up with was that maybe it "wasn't important", or "maybe the teacher's just "didn't know". Needless, to say my explanations didn't sit well with ANY of them. He, he, he, he. Getting to he bottom of the answer took years for me to fully understand. All 3 of the centenarians in my family were out of elementary or primary school by the 1940's. So, such information as you have discussed in your video was moderately known IF only on a cursory level. My mother was out of elementary school by approx 1954 / 55. Only some of the African CONTINENT history was touched upon when she was a youngster. Her younger brother and sister who finished their primary education (approx) 1960 or 1961 also had some of this knowledge. However, by the time I reached the end of, my own elementary education sometime around '74 or '75 this information was largely ignored or had all but disappeared from school curriculum and textbooks in any sort of in-depth fashion. The only thing I could determine was that much like the, 'Great Vowel Shift' in literature and writing something must have changed in the school system by the late 1960's or early '70's such that later generations of school children never were exposed to it. My nation's school system must have had some sort of, 'reset' POST Korea(n war) and / or Viet Nam that changed all that. Honestly, I can tell you that by the time my history lessons in middle school and high school really took off, there was nary a mention of Africa save for, discussions centered around its continental / geographical shape, topography, game hunting, the type of animals found, the slave trade, mention of the Boer Republic, and IF we were lucky a few notable figures: F.W. deKlerk, Mandela, (the explorer Livingstone) and J.R.RTolkien. My..... how times have changed.
