THE COMMUNITY ON OUR HISTORY AND HERITAGE "AFRICAN SPIRITUALITY: OUR FOUNDATION"

FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS IN THIS COUNTRY AND ELSEWHERE, AFRICAN SPIRITUALITY HAS BEEN RIDICULED, DEGRADED,CARICATURED AND LOOKED AT AS BEING ASSOCIATED WITH VIOLENCE, HUMAN AND ANIMAL SACRIFICES, AND GENERAL BACKWARDNESS. WE NOW KNOW TODAY THAT A LOT OF THE PILLARS OF WESTERN RELIGIONS HAVE THEIR FOUNDATIONS ON ANCIENT KEMETIC (EGYPTIAN) SPIRITUALITY. THE ORIGINS OF MANY OF THE RELIGIOUS THOUGHT AND CONCEPTS WE HAVE IN MAJOR WESTERN RELIGIONS COME OUT OF THE NILE VALLEY. AND MANY OF THE SPIRITUAL PRACTICES OF OUR ANCIENT ANCESTORS STILL HAVE A GREAT PROMINENCE IN TRADITIONAL AFRICAN SPITUAL SYSTEMS PRACTICED TODAY. OUR SPECIAL GUEST, DR. MOLEFI KETE ASANTE, WEIGHS IN ON THIS FORCEFUL SUBJECT WITH GREAT APLOMB. SO JOIN ME, YOUR HOST, GREGORY TAYLOR, AS WE DISCUSS THIS MOST IMPORTANT AND FASCINATING PART OF OUR KNOWLEDGE OF OURSELVES OUR TRUE SELVES, OUR SPIRITUALITY!!!
