This week is about Mansa Musa. This Emperor of Mali is one of the greatest leaders that Alkebulan (Africa) has ever known. He is someone that I personally admire and will seek guidance from in terms of business, leadership and greatness. He has contributed a lot to the building blocks of Alkebulan and the whole world. This is was a man who cherished his people and loved his continent. Everything that Mansa Musa did was for Alkebulan and the restoration of its former glory in Kemet, Nubia or Kush, Carthage, and many of our nations. He understood the importance of unity and working towards a united people with one power, love and society. We honor his spirit because he was wise, moral and very powerful. Many do not know him because he left out even when we pour libations but now is the time for us to understand his mission and who he was.

    The sad thing is that Africans should still be in that position. The Congo region pretty much has the largest store of a lot of the materials that are needed to make popular tech like cell phones. However, instead of building some kind of reasonable conglomerate to mine and sell that stuff, they are fighting over it and not maximizing what they can do with it. On the real, that area could be a real life Wakanda.

    Seen both hidden colors. Mansa Musa was that dude and a righteous king who didn't let that wealth go to his head. White people were passed and start naming Solomon and everyone they could name.

    I got that hidden colors part 1 and 2.. I suggest everybody watch.. It even inspired me to edit my own doc called "strictly for my NEGUS"...

    the reason why you see so much conflict and famine in Africa is because of all the natural resources and land has been the focus of invaders.. even to this day much of the tech we still use such as touch screens and cellphone technology is coming out of the congo.. (rubber)

    I have both on my computers, try using a torrent, but I would assume it would be hard to find and the worst case is to purchase it. Both dvds are like 20 dollars.

    nobody is stopping the brotha who made it, you got people who will sit back and watch pre-copys (bootlegs) of Robocop, and all these other movies that promote garbage, yet and still even if the information is getting out there, as long as the money is staying in the black community why are you worried about his money? Tariq Nasheed is getting money regardless. sorry to tell you.
