Ivan Van Sertima wrote a book called 'They Came Before Columbus' many years ago. He has very extensive anthropological evidence of African presence in the Americas

[@tyronnhamilton254]

Thanks for this. It’s the first time I’ve heard someone who is not of African decent share this information. I’ve personally been studying nearly all of what your lecture covered on my own over a period of years. Well said and hopefully we’ll served..

Let's yet remember, due to this history, my people have suffered spiritually and economically. Our ways of life shifted by force not by choice. History wasn't just fabricated, it was forced into our psyche, this "awesome" educational system of ours, and went unchallenged for more than 500 years in the United States of America, until now. But, we still made it y'all. They couldn't kill our spirit or our truth, no matter how hard they tried! Love and peace🖤

@@randee4550 english or not, before the English, Africans had discovered sweet Jamaica.

[@randee4550]

@@mlionea The Taínos, were already in Jamaica. So it's IMPOSSIBLE, that Africans, that never had a fleet of ships, for a transatlantic voyage, went anywhere. This is why when Abu Bakkari tried, they were swallowed by the ocean. Only one ship turned around, and was able to document this account. We can go all the way up to the 1490's. Where are these fleets? Why didn't Africans, muster up these so-called fleets, and load up these ships, with warriors, and sail towards the new world, in order to rescue the victims of the slave trade? answer: no such thing EVER existed. No Africans ever set foot, in Jamaica, other those that were brought there, against their will.

[@mont7481]

Not surprised. Only lends credence to what a US government archeologist shared with me about a year and a half ago on my way to Denver. He stated it's been known for many decades throughout all the American continent, both north and south that blacks visited and inhabited the Americas, including the southern most region's of south America. He stated while working at sites on native american reservations, ancient fossils, which included elephants hand uncovered tools, equipment and other items along with remains of men who were obviously African tribesman because of items and DNA evidence. Research has been ongoing and only proves African explorers predated Columbus by many centuries. Perhaps even influenced by Egyptian culture as well. Look at the pyramids in south America and ancient Indian burial mounds. How much the resemble temples and burial mounds in Egypt. The statues in southern Mexico, which are obviously ancient and African. More similarities than differences. Same thing for the Vikings who predated Columbus. Why omit those facts? They were great explorers and sailors.

[@olmecST]

If Africans came to the Americas they found people that looked like themselves.

[@africannarrativenetwork6475]

Mensa Musa when he returned from his famous trip to Mecca, built many ships and set sail to explore the world in the year 1300. It makes sense to find this artefacts from Africa. These were from his expeditions.

Lets get one thing situated here. At one point and time the entire world was one continent. The shifting of landscapes at a rate where cultures rise and die and migrate to other locations as these places left. To say that one of these places, like Africa, is the birth place of the world is nonesense.

No. We are not. Go check Cameroon history, we are all the same people. English and Arab language was created after they destroyed africa, they don't even have language or speak. No such thing as middle east or Europe cause it was all asia still is same part cause the plates split which is north east Africa. Look the map showing Europe is bigger than the African continent... yeah right ? I know Africa is so huge. Also no such thing as Hebrews or Israelite, christianity, lslam cause Africans pre-dated all that crap.
