Shark Island is a small island located off the coast of Nambia. It’s
the site where over hundred years ago the Germans held a concentration camp which was also known as “Death Island”. Shark Island Concentration Camp is something like other African tragedies that is
omitted from history.

Over 10,000 African people from the Herero and Namaqua tribe were killed between 1905 to 1907. At the time Nambia was under the German empire, On the island, Germans used some of the same
methods they used on Jews on the Herero and Namaqua. Methods such as
torture, forced larbor, and went as far cracking the skulls of the
Herero and Namaqua. WIth the dead bodies, the Germans ran “Medical Investigation” on the Herero and Namaqua to see which was the inferior
race. Other methods of torture were rape and forcing the women to do hard labor after and kept them starved for many days at time. Its not
Ironic to me events like this committed to African go omitted but Jewish Holocaust “Never Forget” slogan is used.

This is the final Installment of SanCopha League White History,
where the Whites Lies were exposed, and omitted events that Europeans
were finally revealed for you see and learn from.

Dr. Dennis W. Weatherby (December 4, 1959 - September 15, 2007) was an administrator and scientist, responsible for leading the team that developed the chemical formula for what is now known as Cascade Dishwashing Detergent. He was born in Brighton, Alabama to Willie and Flossie Mae Weatherby. He earned a football scholarship to Central State University. He graduated with a BA in Chemistry, and an MA in Chemical Engineering from the University of Dayton. He earned his Ph.D. in Educational Psychology from Auburn University.

He took a job with the Procter & Gamble Company. He was hired as a process engineer, he was asked to lead a team to create a new version of dishwashing detergent. He made a breakthrough, and along with co-developer Brian J. Roselle, he and his team developed a solution that did not stain dishes. On December 22, 1987, he received US Patent #4,714,562 for “automatic dishwasher detergent composition.”


He worked for The Whittaker Corporation, before joining the faculty at Central State University. He became the assistant professor of water quality for the CSU International Center for Water Resources Management. He served as an advisor, recruiter, and counselor for students in the environmental program, and was responsible for more than 400% growth in student enrollment at the university.

He joined the faculty of Auburn University, to establish and lead the school’s new minority engineering program. He moved to the University of Notre Dame, serving as the associate dean of the graduate school. He accepted the position of Associate Provost for student success at Northern Kentucky University.

He suffered from high blood pressure throughout his life and fell ill in August 2007. While recovering at home, he hit his foot on a bedpost and developed a blood clot that traveled to his brain. He is survived by his wife, Marpessa, 4 daughters and 2 sons. In his honor, to commemorate 25 years of the Engineering Academic Excellence Program, The Weatherby Society at Auburn University was established to recognize those who have made donations and gifts of over $25,000. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence #alphaphialpha

Mary-Fields-2.jpg



Mary Fields (c. 1832 – December 5, 1914), also known as Stagecoach Mary and Black Mary, was an American mail carrier who was the first Black woman to be employed as a star route postwoman in the United States. Fields had the star route contract for the delivery of U.S. mail from Cascade, Montana, to Saint Peter's Mission. She drove the route for two four-year contracts, from 1895 to 1899 and from 1899 to 1903. Author Miantae Metcalf McConnell provided documentation discovered during her research about Mary Fields to the United States Postal Service Archives Historian in 2006. This enabled the USPS to establish Mary Fields' contribution as the first African-American female star route mail carrier in the United States
