Essential The Official African History Thread

[Constantine]

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

The Mau Mau often referred to by white historians as "terrorists" were Kenyan freedom fighters who banded together in secrecy and conducted Guerilla warfare to expell white settles from their lands.

Due to the living conditions under colonialism and oppression a rebellion was formed that first and foremost went about crushing Africans that had sold their brothers out. These colonist collaborators (uncle toms) were killed in brutal ritualistic fashion, after which white settlers were attacked leading to armed conflict with British troops. The uprising began around 1949 and lasted to 53, eventually leading to the independence of Kenya from the British Empire in 63.

These freedom fighters were tactful and also very adaptive learning to make Guns out of broken and discarded British arms combined with other scavenged items.

The British eventually captured and killed their leader Dedan Kimathi as a final blow before leaving the colony and freeing some of the other captured combatants (some of whom recently won retribution in London courts for being tortured) However the uprising was not a failure despite what white historians would have you believe it disrupted colonial rule and lead to the freedom of the country and also resettlement of the disputed lands (cacs were very unhappy)

They wore dreads which became very symbolic of them and the struggle.

Here is a documentary that all of us 'Black' people in America who are descended from slaves should watch and pay attention to. Our ancestors were not from Egypt. Our ancestry can more than likely be traced back to one of the greatest empires in African history........

I just bought a house and been looking for African art to hang in it, and it reminded me of this thread so I figured I'd drop some more gems for you savages and demons. Probably post 3 more peeps then go jerk off to some pawg porn

Piye, Nubian King/Pharaoh of Kemet (Egypt)

• Kushyte king and founder of the Twenty-fifth dynasty of Egypt
  
• Ruled from 753 to 722 BCE
• Invaded all of Egypt and conquered the lower, middle, and upper kingdoms
• The Sudanese people consider Piye and Taharqa as historical figures and regarded more than the other pharaohs from the Twenty-fifth dynasty of Egypt.
  
• Revitalised the moribund Great Temple of Amun at Gebel Barkal
• Legend has it, he was the first human in recorded history to use the phrase "u mad?"

Quotes about King Piye

Be gracious! I cannot see your face in the days of shame; I cannot stand before your flame, I dread your grandeur.

In exchange for their lives, the vanquished urged Piye to worship at their temples, pocket their finest jewels, and claim their best horses. He obliged them. And then, with his vassals trembling before him, the newly anointed Lord of the Two Lands did something extraordinary: He loaded up his army and his war booty, and sailed southward to his home in Nubia, never to return to Egypt again.

all the Pharaoh were black

fukk these cacs for trying to act like black pharoahs only came along when the Nubians took over

Was Mohammed's successor after his death, but Bilal gave the honor to general Abu

This is interesting, coz directly after Muhammad's death the Arabs invaded syria which was mainly populated by blacks like the rest of Arabia. And in just 60 yrs those Arabs conquered all the way to the Spain. A route they still occupy to this day. Slaughtering millions of Africans and Islam was the religion they used as a false flag

Props on the thread, this was needed n I'll be contributing when I get home

But you gotta fukk outta here with that Islamic shyt, unless ur willing to condone the Christians that raped n plagued our land.

Breh, It's African history. I don't give a fukk if they're muslim, Christian, or any of the traditional African faith systems. If you're a iconic member of African history, I'm gonna put up some info about it

Besides, I'm agnostic so I really don't give 2 fukks about the supernatural or deities to begin with

Cacs gonna cac breh

Instead of being mad, drop some knowledge about other Egyptian pharaohs. I'll be the first to admit I don't know too much about them (outside of the notable ones like Tut and Akhenaton)

Like I said earlier, I was looking for some African sculptures and paintings and came across some dope ass ones. I already bought one piece, a replica of the Asante stool. Doesn't look exactly like this, but I don't feel like taking a picture. I think it's gonna be the centerpiece in my foyer

I also found a spot that has prints of moorish princes and warriors looking swagged the fukk out

Also found a place that has an autographed print of General Toussaint Louverture by Jacob Lawrence . shyt cost $12,000

I'm just gonna cop a reprint for like $30 instead

I'm also gonna get a bronze bust made of Marcus Garvey, Askia the Great, and if I'm lucky, a replica of the Alabastron of Nubian Queen Neferukakashta.

I want my house to be as anti cac as possible
