Black Culture Discussion Thread

Those who do not know what? Are his choices for judges and law makers truly his own?


What history shows me how the abrahamic books came to be, and proves how they are collections from other faiths? The book you reference? Also, many doctrines were in "existence" before the Abrahamic books were "written", how do you know what from what? I'm not trying to be a scoffer, you said you don't have all the answers and that's cool, just point me in the direction to find what I'm looking for.

Another question for you KHUFU KHUFU , what solutions does the Kemetic belief system have for our people today? if hypothetically speaking, every "black" person adopted the Kemetic belief system, how would that help us in 2019 and beyond?


Is the black woman your god?

Any further questions that you have about what it is that I believe, is referenced through the books, those that have been used in research and then can be cross referenced, offered in my last post to you. I am not here to convert you into my way of thinking. Your path is that of your own. Good luck.

-I don't understand the tribes...there's nothing I've heard in their breakdown that makes sense to me as far as the tribes...

for example:

THE TWELVE TRIBES

1. YAHAWADAH = יהודה = JUDAH = NEGROES/AFRICAN AMERICANS

2. BANYAMAN = בנימן = BENJAMIN = WEST INDIES/ JAMAICA TO BELIZE

3. LAWAYA = לוי = LEVI = HAITIANS

4. SHAMAIWAN = שמעון = SIMEON = DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

5. ZABAWALAN = זבולן = ZEBULON = GUATEMALA TO PANAMA

6. AHPARYAM = אפרים = EPHRAIM = PUERTO RICANS

7. MANASHAH = מנשה = MANASSEH = CUBANS

8. GAD = גד = GAD = NORTH AMERICAN INDIANS

9. RAAHWABAN = ראובן = REUBEN = SEMINOLE INDIANS

10. NAPATHALAYA = נפתלי = NAPTHALI = ARGENTINA AND CHILE

11. AHSHAR = אשר = ASHER = COLOMBIA TO URUGUAY

12. YASHASHAKAR = יששכר = ISSACHAR = MEXICANS

why are they separated that way? what makes them different from each other? especially given how ppl ended up in these places.
why are certain native American groups their own tribe but certain ppl from certain countries (which def have large native American populations and large black populations) aren't included in the same tribes??

west Indians include ppl from English speaking islands but also dutch, french and Spanish. for example, pr and dr are west indian countries.
we specifically got the term west indian from Columbus being in dr and referring to the native americans there (tainos) as Indians, from my memory (so there's that, ninjahood. dr is a west indian country). those same native americans inhabited a lot of the Caribbean, including Jamaica, Haiti, pr, etc.

i'm just saying. I don't think it makes sense off of that alone. going further into that, argentina is a white country, Colombia, Venezuela and brazil (which brazil isn't included?) have large black populations with brazil having the largest outside of Africa and larger than any African country other than nigera. period etc.

some of them seem to say some crazy stuff about Africans from memory that I just disagree with as a descendent of enslaved Africans.

other than that, I love the...I don't care attitude they have and the fact that a lot of them can go toe to toe with anybody.
personally I would debate one but i'm not doing that in front of ppl that don't look like me.

no one knows for sure which people group belong to which tribe. At this point it would certain segments, not just a population of people. The preservation of customs is one indicator. But ultimately where the " Black Hebrew Israelites" lose me (outside of unnecessary aggression and agitation), is the heavy focus on the physical blood line than the spiritual line which is far more important. Understanding your identity is one thing, but walking out that truth progressively is another.

I'm black and an Israelite if that matters.

This might be better for you. 22mins talk about black being in America first... And son thinks slave trade is fabricated and or highly emelished (that part is new to me).

Still don't know who this cat is, but it showed up on my YouTube few weeks back.
 
I challenge all of these Hebrew Israelites to do a dna test.
if you have any Portuguese/Spanish in you as well as African dna there's a greater chance than not that someone came to the Americas on a boat via the transatlantic slave trade. period.

ppl talking about they're native American this and that but know no languages other than languages learned via colonization, have no family names other than names from Europe, have no foods they passed down other than foods created from enslaved Africans, have no words in their vocabulary that aren't European, etc. etc.

i'm not trying to be that guy but yo. you know no dances, no music, no religions, no nothing but claiming to be native American.

i'm not saying that black ppl didn't ALSO exist in America after migrating from Africa before the transatlantic slave trade but this notion that none of us or the majority of us aren't on this side of the planet due to the transatlantic slave trade is absolutely ridiculous to me given facts.
****ting on Africans to further a point is ridiculous.

we are African period.

Australian aboriginals...or the black ppl from papua. I can't remember...I saw a doc where one of the two were talking about their origins and they mentioned Africa. now they've been in papua new guinea and Australia for how long? and they didn't forget and aren't trying to distance themselves away from Africa.
so with that said, Hebrew Israelites?? :nerd:>D

WE AFRICAN PERIOD!

Once another black person wants to preach otherwise they aint African to me, I dismiss them intellectually. Its that simple. I have zero times for people who cant believe in logic.

They are off the mark, entirely. The info that they are spouting which comes from the Bible is inaccurate, fabricated. They also have a huge problem with women, which is an even larger problem than the issue that they have with everyone else. The bible in itself is horrible toward women period. ALL the abrahamic faiths are disgusting toward women, reducing them to second class citizens. This should be a problem for anyone who is searching for a solution to what the world is facing in regard to white male supremacy. If you are a misogynist, then most likely your views will make you susceptible to racist influence.

Show me a sexist, and I will show you a person ready to be defeated by white male supremacy.
 
Everywhere else that conquistadors found dark complected peoples (Australian Aborigines, Aeta in the philippines, Melanesians), it was all recorded and was never a secret, why would finding black indigenous people in the Americas be a big deal and kept a secret.

Hey, I want to vent something that boggles my mind about black unity specifically with certain Black Greek chapters.

So like some of us brothers during college we show interest in a BGLO. I am no exception and pursued an organization during undergrad. My honest goal was and has always been to work with brothers in serious community impact and support one another. I also had a few brothers get me out of my hoodrat tendencies and mentored me in a way during freshman year. I stopped because of two glaring reasons, the first because I caught wind from several sources and my own experience with 2 brothers of the organization that they were drugging men and taking advantage of them sexually. Yes, dudes drugging other dudes( my sources for these allegations being a male victim, a female victim, internet postings about it, my home girl telling tipping me off about one of them and both dudes tried to to press me and I don't play for that team). My undergrad at large has a long standing history of sexual assault from greeks being swept under the rug especially with the BGLO's. The other was that I questioned the leaders of the organization about their lack of impact on the community ( a inner city university). My point to them was that my individual community service hours lapped the entire active chapter if they excluded their mentoring program leader (this wasn't a small chapter). Another organization on campus engaged me about joining after I passed my first selection but I declined because frankly they pledge way too damn hard and weren't making any noticeable community impact.

So post college I was dating a Delta and she sparked my interest for a grad chapter. First day I showed interest a few brothers were talking street heavy as if it was a gang and a non-black member of the organization kept dropping the N-word like it was cool. I kinda got into it with a few of them because I actually grew up around serious gang culture and considering the prestigious members of the chapter the overall group were cornballs and underachievers to say the least and washed beyond comprehension despite being in their 20's. They were also giving me a hard time for practicing an traditional African religion(I received high initiation in the Yoruba tradition) and not being Christian or Muslim.

At that point I compared myself to the regular members and myself and realized that I achieved many of my goals I set for that dream of doing it as a group on my own. I've ran several mentoring programs and just started another one today, developed several community outreach programs, I'm decorated in my field and not washed physically, spiritually or financially. I've also mentored other black greeks within my field and spiritually. Within my field I've come across several active members of varying orgs and they constantly press me to join to the point that one wanted to pick me up and drive me across states to kick it with his chapter but I humbly declined.

Recently an organization had a gathering within my city while my wife and I were downtown for lunch. She was never into college life and completed her degree online recently. While she was downtown she was like what the hell is going on, is this like black pride or something downtown. Why as these men dressed like this(very dusty paraphernalia) and being so openly flamboyant. I then explained greek culture to her and shared my experiences to her about pursuing. I was very embarrassed to explain what we saw downtown but then had to back it up by explaining the few of my friend that she knows of that are greek and a thorough brothers. She said she would've thought differently of me if I belonged to two of the five orgs due to how the most of the members of the organization that she knew of turned out.

I understand that every org and every chapter operate very differently but my gripe is with the ethics and standards of accountability of black organizations that are very capable of making a strong impact on the community but fail to do so. In the same vain i know about men sexually assaulting young men and women as well as brothers leading the initiative for leading prominent black businesses and community efforts. In starting my mentoring program today I was considering reaching out to some greeks but I am very reluctant to do so. The same happened in college when I was setting up a high school mentoring program but I passed on the personal invitation because of the sexual assaults that I knew of.

To be honest, don't feel comfortable discussing this with my greek friends but I was wondering if NT has any input/thoughts.

Because slave traders were engaging in massive fraud. The story was everyone black is the same and from one place. And blackness was to become synonymous with permanent slavery. The church mob bosses were sanctioning the trade and used the Bible to justify slavery as God's will.

America was the promise Land of the Bible. That's the secret. But they got you looking over there as home instead of where you're at.

And of course all ppl genetically come from Africa.
When all the continents were one land mass Africa was dead center. Where a place is now and what's isits called now is not the same as being from there.

I feel sorry for any Black man or woman that decided to do the Greek thing. Witnessing the humiliation involved, I simply did not want any part of that.
So much I wanna say about it, but hey, it has already been said.

I've dealt with that too with my friends and ex's. They have serious PTSD from the trauma of pledging.

I have seen people change for the better from the experience but there are a alarming number of brother and sister trying to work past the trauma of pledging.
 
I've known people that died in the hazing process. It ain't worth dying to join a group of dudes who only want clout on campus with young impressionable females and will eventually stop paying their dues and associating with the org.

I couldn't pledge at all. Won't be beating me bloody and fronting like you my brother. First time I gotta bend over to "catch wood" I'm sliding somebody. Real talk. They just gonna have to call me a gdi"
