  • NGOLO: (Re)Membering the African American Child As a Normative for Self-Healing Power

    NGOLO: (Re)Membering the African American Child As a Normative for Self-Healing Power

    NGOLO: (Re)membering the African American Child as a Normative for Self-Healing Power Patricia Nunley ORCID iD: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3437-8135 Abstract In response to the need to clarify the ongoing experience of historical and contemporary trauma by African American people in the USA, Dr. Wade Nobles, co-founder and past President of the ABPsi introduced the concept of ‘Psychic Terrorism’ which he defined as the systematic use of terror to immobilize and/or destabilize a person’s fundamental sense of security and safety by assaulting his or her consciousness and identity (2015: 4). The USA’s practice of psychic terrorism demands that special attention be given to African American children’s identity development. In this regard, the unconstrained, western research’s dominance continues to function as a hindrance to the understanding of Black children’s positive identity development and resultant well-being. In this context the African child’s double invisibility (Jonsson 2009; Nsamenang 2007), obscurity and under-publication, and the African American child’s double visibility, pathologies and over-publication (Jackson & Moore 2008; Kunjufu1992), inhibits an appreciation of Black children’s substantive self-identity knowledge. The consequence of this for the African Child is unrecognition of their normativity as the universal original child. For the African American child, this unrecognition also impairs their connection to their generative African essence or Ngolo. Ngolo, as defined by Fu-Kiau, means in Kikongo, the ‘energy of self-healing power’. By employing the child development discipline, this article will problematize the minimization of the African child as the norm while illuminating the critical need for African American children to function in wholeness and wellness.
  • Celebrate Kwanzaa Well, It's December 29Th. We've Run out Of

    Celebrate Kwanzaa Well, It's December 29Th. We've Run out Of

    Celebrate Kwanzaa Well, it’s December 29th. We’ve run out of Advent Sundays but we aren’t quite to the new year. I wanted to continue the inter-faith kind of theme we’ve had for December so I was guided to Kwanzaa. Technically, Kwanzaa isn’t faith based but it is culture based. So what culture and why do we have Kwanzaa, what does it mean and why should anyone at Unity of Lehigh Valley care about it? You know how I keep talking about how the Universe contributes to my sermons? Well, when the Universe stops contributing, I’ll stop talking about it. I was randomly searching for something to watch on Netflix one night and for some reason clicked on a movie titled, “Holiday in the Wild.” Not filmed in Philadelphia, it was filmed in Zambia. A movie much more about elephant conservation than Christmas, it was really interesting to watch it and notice little things. Like that the film begins with modern cities in Zambia, a modern airport and luxury hotel. Local people were seen with ordinary clothes, although many had the African fabric and men and women often wore more loose fitting than Western styles. The roles of people who worked at the Elephant nursery were treated with respect and African people were seen as intelligent and hard-working and compassionate. Now I want you to reflect on the ways the dominant, white European culture in the United States typically describes what I will call, “original people”. How have you heard Native Americans described? How did whites describe the individuals brought to this country from Africa and forced into slavery? Mostly I think of the word, “savages”.

  • NAARC Reparations Program

    NAARC Reparations Program

    Background and Purpose This document is the product of the initial deliberations of the seventeen member Na- tional African American Reparations Commission. [See list at the conclusion of this document]. Convened by the Institute of the Black World 21st Century (IBW), the National African American Reparations Commission (NAARC) derives its inspiration from and is modeled after the CARICOM Reparations Commission which, is mobilizing/organizing to demand compensation from the former European colonialists for Native genocide and African enslavement. This demand is being made with the unanimous support/blessing of the nations of the Caribbean. The bold move by the CARICOM nations to form such a Com- mission has captured the imagination of people of African descent throughout the Pan African world and is providing a major spark to the global Reparations Movement. Inspired by the courageous example of the CARICOM Commission, the primary goal of NAARC is to serve as a vehicle, among others, to intensify, broaden and deepen the Reparations Movement in the U.S. From its inception the formulation of a Preliminary Reparations Program has been a major task of the Commission. While the formulation of such a Program is important, the Commission believes an educational process that engages people of African descent in a national dialogue about proposals for repara- tions is as important as a particular set of proposals or action agenda. Educating, en- gaging and activating people of African descent to support Reparations as a concept is the major task of NAARC. The centerpiece of the Commission’s education and advocacy eff orts will be the conven- ing of Regional Hearings and community events to present the Preliminary Reparations Program and receive input, suggestions and recommendations for consideration for the Final Reparations Program.

  • Juneteenth 6517A

    Juneteenth 6517A

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Tasha Chambers [email protected] | (804) 263-0491 Elegba Folklore Society Announces Schedule for Juneteenth Celebration Renowned Historian, Tony Browder, to Headline Weekend with Symposium RICHMOND, Va. (June 5, 2017) – Richmond’s Cultural Ambassador, Elegba Folklore Society (EFS), will present “Juneteenth 2017, A Freedom Celebration” on June 16-18 with weekend-long cultural and educational programs. This year’s event will include The Symposium featuring renowned historian, author, decoder, archeologist and Egyptologist, Anthony T. Browder; Juneteenth Backyard Party; and a ceremony for Ancestral Homage held at the African Burial Ground. Juneteenth, regarded as the first African American holiday, became a traditional celebration when, on June 19, 1865, General Gordon Granger sailed into Galveston (Texas) harbor and issued a proclamation giving freedom to approximately 250,000 blacks in Texas still in bondage 2 ½ years after President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation was enacted on Jan. 1,1863. EFS’s goal is to educate event participants about this independence holiday for African Americans, the rich history of Africans and their descendants in America and to celebrate cultural togetherness. “The Juneteenth Freedom Celebration is about acknowledgment and celebration of our African ancestors’ independence from bondage,” said Janine Bell, president and artistic director of Elegba Folklore Society. “Today, more than ever, there is a much needed, enhanced level of cultural understanding that can bring clarity to our lives and our journey. Juneteenth commemorates the physical liberation but focuses in on the pursuit of mental and spiritual liberation that many have yet to achieve as African descendants trying to find or maintain a sense of identity and purpose in America.

    What Is the MAAFA Or MAAGAMIZI the Main Reason for Blacks to Claim Reparations Africa and the Black Family Are Victims of Historical Racism

    J What is the MAAFA or MAAGAMIZI The Main Reason for Blacks to Claim Reparations Africa and the Black Family are Victims of Historical Racism By Ifama Jackson Why do some people refer to the crimes committed against Black People as the MAAFA or MAAGAMIZI instead of the African Holocaust? Some people believe these two words are considered more suitable and offer a better description of the Black Family Experience due to Crimes of Racism. Go into deep thought on thousands of years of long-lasting unjustified suffering caused by Invasions, Slavery, Imperialism, Colonialism, and Exploitation. MAAFA refers to the colonization of Africa and enslavement of African People, and the sustained attempt to successfully dehumanize the Black Family. Science has proven that environment shapes heredity. Racism or The MAAFA has disconnected Africans from their cultural origins, and in the case of the African in America, the perpetrators of their long time injuries have created a new African tribe in America who were called many names, but the latest term is African-American. They do not have their native languages or names, and they have been forcibly removed from their homeland. They do not have good social standing, and they do not have an economic foundation. They are in great need of repair and they have remained vulnerable to a social order that does not reflect their traditional identity. This is abstract and concrete proof of the Black Family being in great need of repair from suffering and damage. MAAGAMIZI refers to the intentionality of what happened to African people. Which means it did not happen by accident.
  • Serial Forced Displacements and the Decline of Ubuntu in Afrikan American Communities

    Serial Forced Displacements and the Decline of Ubuntu in Afrikan American Communities

    Serial Forced Displacements and the Decline of Ubuntu in Afrikan American Communities Huberta Jackson-Lowman ORCID iD: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2933-6192 Abstract Serial forced displacement, the ‘repetitive, coercive upheaval of groups’, is examined as a key feature of the ongoing Maafa or Afrikan Holocaust and explored as a primary source of the disruption of Ubuntu in Black communities in the United States. According to Fullilove (2016), disconnecting people from their land, their culture, history, traditions, values, and relationships creates ‘root shock’ which undermines natural tendencies to exhibit respect, compassion, caring, cooperation, and support of one’s fellow human beings, or what South Afrikan people refer to as ‘Ubuntu.’ African philosophy suggests that Ubuntu is a common moral position passed down over generations by Afrikan people. Its presence has been noted in segregated Black communities, which is illustrative of the retention of Ubuntu amongst Afrikan Americans. American housing policies at the federal, state, and local levels, along with private development initiatives that have led to gentrification of many Black neighbourhoods, are identified as the main culprits in the diminishment of Ubuntu through the uprooting and destruction of numerous thriving Black communities. It is suggested that these housing policies are the most recent examples of serial forced displacement and are at the root of much of the community disorganization, health disparities, violence, and family instability observed in many low-income Black neighbourhoods. The development of cultural standards that prescribe cultural policies which are designed to restore Ubuntu in Black communities is recommended as a palliative for ameliorating the dehumanizing environment created by serial forced displacements.
