In the religious tradition of Islam, when the name of the Prophet Muhammad is mentioned, you will often hear a Muslim follow the saying of the name Muhammad with the phrase "Peace Be Upon Him" (PBUH). A similar custom was found in Ancient Egypt, however they said a different phrase. An Example can be seen in the text called "The Salvation of Humanity," which an excerpt can be seen in T. Obenga's _African Philosophy (2004: 164-174). In this text, often when the name of the god Ra or "His Majesty" is mentioned, the author will follow up with the phrase: "Life, Prosperity and Health" (/anx, wDA, snb/). A few examples can be seen below.

...humanity plotted against him at a time when His Majesty-

Life, Prosperity and Health to him - had grown old, so that . . .
. . .
Dd.in hm.f anx wDA snb n ntyw m-xt.f
His Majesty - Life, Prosperity and Health to him - said to his retainers . . .

They don't say it every time, but we can see that this type of phraseology was common in Egypt. So if we want to adopt such a custom when we speak of our deified ancestors, I think the Egyptian phrase is something worth adopting. Thus, when I'm in a conversation, and I first mention the Orisha Dr. John Henrik Clarke, I would follow his name with /anx, wDA, snb/ "Life, Prosperity and Health" unto him . . . and then continue with the conversation.
Y'all ever edit wiki articles @KidStranglehold @MansaMusa ive done so in the past but I think what some brehs took it seriously and edited wiki articles we drop so much truth in this subforum and there's a lot of misinformation and BS
Like I read the Sierra Leone article and i see This BS
"Sierra Leone is also home to the Negro descendants of the Transatlantic Slave Trade, which in and of itself, forms the basis for a widely held belief - among the tribes of the nation - that they are indeed the Judahites of Israel. The chosen people of providence.[citation needed]"

Haha oh dear. I used to edit articles on the Igbo but someone would always change it back! I gave up. I will build in the Root instead.
I edited articles on Jamaica and (alternative) r&b

Do you guys have any reliable sources on the San and Khoikhoi particularity their genetics?
These SA cacs are trying to tell me black people aren't indigenous to South Africa, because San and Khoikhoi aren't black people since they're not Bantu.

Haha
Most SA Blacks have Khoisan DNA through centuries of assimilation and trade ex. Nelson Mandela's face
Btw, the Khoi migrated to SA like 3,000 years ago from the Zambezi. Check out the Peopling of Africa thread!

@KaiserRexTheCzar - If most white people accept that people from the Horn of Africa are black - despite their phenotypic differences from West/Central Africans....then why can't the Khoi-San be Black? Same goes for the Nilotes who are quite different from say...a Yoruba from Nigeria.

Yeah I mentioned that much of east/west africa is devoid of Bantus yet they are still considered black.
These cacs are delusional.
I hurt too many feelings.

It's disgusting. They think black people have no claim to South Africa. Their entitlement is disturbing.Doing Shango's work
This is what happens when you don't tell your own stories. Instead of saying that this is the first mummy in history, they had to emphasize that the young boy was "black" as if that was a surprise in Africa. The boy was found in Libya. They should know that Libya at this time was not run by Arabs. And of course the Egyptians got mummification from this earlier culture. This is where they came from (Libya, Chad). They moved to the Nile Valley due to the desertification of the once green Sahara. They try too hard to make a White Egypt:
