This may be a long shot - But there was someone who attended one of our events a few years ago and he performed an oral story and worked as a primary school teacher - I can't remember his name - but if he so happens to see this, or knows who it might be, send a tweet/dm 🙏🏾
And there we have it - It's available NOW on paperback and e-book🙏🏾 amazon.co.uk/dp/B09M42YRHP/…
11 Jan '22 amazon.co.uk/dp/B09M42YRHP/… In this book you will find; • African creation stories in the Americas • Ancestors, deities, and gods • Comedic oral tales • Haitian Vodou • Orisha Discover how African oral traditions adapted to the experiences of the African diaspora
1% of professors in the UK are black Considering it's a struggle for Black-British academics to be employed, accepted, valued and taken seriously regarding lecturing positions in universities, you'd hope they would have the opportunity to teach their own stories, at least
A true legend🙏🏾 who opened doors for many. Sidney Poitier 🌹 rest in peace. 🇺🇸🇧🇸🇭🇹
I love this Edo story from the 15th Century that tells us how Prince Ogun became Oba Ewuare The Great with the help of the ancestors and magic. yourafrodna.com/2022/01/07/oba…
So...I have a book coming out on January 11th 2022 - it's based on my postgraduate research It's called 'African Spirituality and Folktales in the Americas'. You can pre-order a copy on ebook, or order the paperback on the 11th. I appreciate your support😄amazon.co.uk/dp/B09M42YRHP/…
Have you heard about 'The Congos' of Panama? yourafrodna.com/2021/12/20/hav…
Imagine if you could literally pick up your whole house and just move to another location?👀 Chattel houses were common in 🇧🇧🇹🇹🇯🇲 [Barbados, Trinidad & Tobago, and Jamaica] This was filmed in rural Jamaica
I want to see more stories like this on twitter🙏🏾 Stories of how your partner, sibling, friend, spouse, etc showed you how much they loved you. It's nice to fill the TL with examples of what love looks like instead of what it doesn't. Positive examples inspire too.

Barbados has removed Queen of England as head of state! It was Britain's first slave colony, & some of the first enslaved people Britain took to mainland America were from Barbados. As Barbados shakes off the remnants of those chains, do you think other countries will follow?

This is a thread of black lecturers in the UK. By 'Black' (and here I use the capital B) I mean people who are (typically) Caribbean or African in heritage or descent. I'm not here to define blackness or tell people who is and isn't black.
A 🧵 The state of hiring Black British staff in the U.K. is dire. I’m sympathetic on the potential pile on the recent case so I’ll broaden the discussion b/cuz ultimately Black scholars in the U.K. have been pointing out the pitfalls of the post-BLM hiring spree for long enough.
@sarniejewell @SpawnofJustice @xeviemuir @Jesswhitehist @LivUniHistory It's notoriously difficult to recruit academics for certain subjects’ if you’ve ever worked in higher education. you’d know that’s a flat out lie. wealth of black academics with the lived experience and expertise to teach this course with the honour it deserves.
But I’m also NOT complaining about giving back, because giving back is investing forward. It’s a privilege to be in this space, but also a systemic terror that intergenerational poverty exists
The thing they don’t tell you, about being first gen and making six figures? That shit don’t hit the same when your whole family poor & disabled and you the bank

@truthinred13 @itsshabs There was huge difference in treatment (historically and now): Black Americans were treated nicely in Paris and other Black people were treated like dirt. (Ever heard of human zoos?)
Paris is legit the most black demographic heavy city I’ve been to in Western Europe but you would never know from these Netflix shows
healing your inner child is also discovering everything about yourself that was taken from you: your passions, your creativity, your identity, and your sense of safety in the world.

@varcmus They are definitely not in the same era set. Vocal wise. Mariah was already a ICON before many of us are born. She was cashing out EARLY with her voice... Mariah - Whitney - Michael Jackson. That’s the era that Mariah belongs to.
It wasn’t the waste of money, racism, discrimination or even negligence of the pandemic, it was turkey dinner.
