Abū Isḥāq Ibrāhīm al-Kānemī[1] (Arabic: أبو إسحاق إبراهيم الكانمي; died c. 1212) was an Arab poet and grammarian from Kanem. He was the first to write in Arabic in the central Sudan.[2]
Ibrāhīm was born in the oasis of Bilma, then a part of Kanem. In one poem, he refers to himself as belonging to the Dhakwān branch of the Banū Sulaym. The Dhakwān moved from Upper Egypt to North Africa in the 11th century. He is described as "jet-black in hue", indicating that his mother at least was a Black African. He was educated in the Sudan; in Ghana, according to Ibn Ḥamuwayh.[3]
In Marrakesh, he married a white woman named Zahrāʾ and wrote her poetry dealing with his dark skin.[3]
It was only a matter of time

It fails because most brothers ain't trying to give up pork and white women. Even some ancestors were vibrating low.While reading about the Kanem-Bornu empire, I came across this guy (most likely Sudanese):

I don’t have much hope in it opening unfortunately…Seems like Umar not even focused on that as much anymoreAnybody plan on visiting FDMG when/if it opens. Me and my folks will probably make the trip. Less than a 2 hour drive from here.
Yeah, I think my first exposure to Umar was some where around 2012 - 2016 (sadly I cannot narrow it down anymore than that).It's been damn near 16 years. That school is never gonna open
